Steps

1

Wash and cut half of the Brussels sprouts in half. Finely chop the other half. Slice the leek and mince the garlic.
2

Heat olive oil and a piece of butter in a pot. Sauté the halved Brussels sprouts until they start to brown, then add the leek and garlic. Season with salt and continue cooking.
3

Add the pasta and cook for a couple of minutes without adding any liquid yet.
4

Pour in 2 cups of hot water. Adjust salt and add pepper. Cook with the lid partially on until about 3 minutes before the pasta is done (cooking time will depend on the pasta you use).
5

Add the chopped Brussels sprouts and continue cooking. Then add the juice and zest of half a lemon and a handful of grated Parmesan cheese. When the pasta is ready, turn off the heat and stir in a tablespoon of butter for a creamier texture.
