Preparation

Boil the pasta
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta; stir gently to separate. Boil, 5 to 8 min., until al dente. Reserving ½ cup cooking water (double for 4 portions), drain and toss with a drizzle of oil to prevent sticking. Reserve the pot.

Make the sauce & combine the pasta
To the pot of vegetables, add the cream, demi-glace, pasta, ½ the cheese, ½ the reserved cooking water and 2 tbsp butter (double for 4 portions). Cook, stirring constantly, 1 to 2 min., until combined. If the sauce seems dry, gradually add the remaining cooking water until you achieve your desired consistency.
