    Cook pasta in a large pan of boiling water according to packet instructions. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup (125ml) cooking liquid.

Add sprout and Kalette and cook, stirring, for 3 minutes or until softened slightly.

    Add the pasta to the sprout mixture along with the reserved cooking liquid, and toss everything together well. Add the lemon zest and juice, and drizzle with a little olive oil. Stir through the parmesan to make the sauce lovely and creamy.
