To make the pasta:

Method

  • Step 1

    Place linguine into a large pan. Add cherry tomatoes, spring onions, garlic, chili flakes and a good pinch of salt and pepper. Rip in cheese and then pour over 1 liter of water. Bring to a boil over a high heat. Cover pan, and reduce heat to low and cook for 15 minutes. Give everything a mix with a fork and then cover and cook for 6-8 minutes or until the sauce is clinging to the cooked pasta.

To make the brussels sprouts:

  • Step 1

    Meanwhile, heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan over high heat. Add the sprouts and a pinch of salt. Leave for 2 minutes to get a really good char and then stir-fry for 1-2 minutes until just tender. Add smoked paprika and 3 tablespoons of water. Mix well.

  • Step 2

    Add sprouts to pasta and add soy sauce. Mix well and serve immediately with plenty of basil scattered over top.
