Serves 4 to 6

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 5 minutes

Cooking Time 30 minutes

Ingredients

300 g Brussels sprouts
1 T olive oil
1/2 t salt
3 T butter
3 T flour
2 cups milk
120 g Gorgonzola or blue cheese, crumbled
pepper, to taste
1/2 t ground nutmeg
100 g Parmesan, pecorino or mozzarella, grated
400 g penne, cooked al dente
crusty bread or salad, for serving

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Toss the Brussels sprouts with the oil and salt, then roast for 20 minutes.

2. Melt the butter in a pan, then whisk in the flour. Cook for 1 minute, then whisk in the milk until thick. Season with pepper and nutmeg.

3. Add the Gorgonzola and whisk until melted, then stir in the pasta and Brussels sprouts.

4. Spoon into a baking dish, sprinkle over the cheese, then bake for 20 minutes. Serve with bread or salad.

Cook's note: If you like, use Woolies’ readymade cheese sauce. This is also a way to use up ham or gammon.
