Creamy Christmas pasta

1. 1

   Place a large frying pan on a medium heat and add the olive oil, shredded Brussels sprouts and chestnuts. Season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring often, for about 10 minutes, or until the sprouts have softened. Add a splash of water if the pan begins to look dry. Once softened, add the cream, most of the nutmeg and 40g/1½oz of the Parmesan. Stir well, bring to a simmer, then turn off the heat. Check the seasoning.

3. 3

   Stir the cooked pasta into the creamy sauce. Leave to rest for one minute before stirring again. Finish the dish with a dusting of nutmeg and the rest of the Parmesan. Serve.
