Metric - US Standard

Instructions

  • To an oven-safe, deep frying pan, add olive oil and the brussels into the pan and heat over a medium/high heat. Season with salt and pepper and fry for 3 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, add your pasta to salted boiling water. Timer set to 2 minutes less than the packet states.
  • Once the brussels have taken on some colour, reduce the heat to medium/low and add the onions into the pan. Fry for 5 more minutes, adding the garlic for the final minute of fry time.
  • Next, add the Hellmann’s mayonnaise, 100g of cheddar, dijon mustard into the pan. Slowly stir 400ml of pasta water.
  • Transfer the undercooked pasta into the pan & stir to combine, continuing to heat over medium/low. The pasta water should thicken into a cheesy glossy sauce.
  • Top with 60g of cheddar and pop under the grill for 6-8 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and golden. Top with fresh parsley/basil and season with lots of black pepper. Enjoy!
