Broccoli gives this classic a lift in both colour and nutrition — a great combination for Wendy to serve to a friend. Grating your own Parmesan cheese guarantees the freshest flavour.

Ingredients
Method
In large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta for 6 minutes. Add broccoli; cook until pasta is tender but firm and broccoli is tender-crisp, about 2 minutes. Drain well and return to pot.
Meanwhile, in saucepan, bring whipping cream and butter just to boil. Reduce heat and stir in Parmesan cheese, salt, pepper and nutmeg; add to pasta and toss to coat.
