Heat the olive oil in a pan. Allow the butter to melt and stir in the flour with a wooden spoon. Stir until the mixture is released from the bottom. Add the milk little by little, stirring continuously into a bound sauce.
Season the heat with pepper and salt. Stir in the ham. Allow to set for at least 2 hours: 30 minutes in a cool place, then in the refrigerator.
