Preparation
Boil the pasta
- Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil.
- Add the pasta; stir gently to separate.
- Boil, 7 to 9 min., until al dente.
- Reserving ½ cup cooking water (double for 4 portions), drain and toss with a drizzle of oil to prevent sticking.
Sauté the vegetables
- Meanwhile, halve the Brussels sprouts lengthwise, then slice crosswise.
- In a large pan (non-stick if possible), heat a generous drizzle of oil on medium-high.
- Add the garlic, mushrooms and Brussels sprouts. Sauté, 3 to 4 min., until nicely browned; season with ½ the spices and S&P.
Make the sauce
- Pick the basil leaves off the stems; tear the leaves.
- To the pan of vegetables, add the tomato sauce, cream, 3 tbsp water (double for 4 portions) and the remaining spices.
- Cook, stirring often, 1 to 2 min., until simmering.
Combine the pasta
- To the pan of sauce, add the pasta, ½ the cheese and ½ the basil.
- Cook, stirring often, 1 to 2 min., until coated and combined; season with S&P.
- If the sauce seems dry, gradually add the reserved cooking water until you achieve your desired consistency.
Plate your dish
- Divide the pasta between your bowls.
- Garnish with the remaining cheese and basil. Bon appétit!
