Once you’ve added the Brussels sprouts to the frypan, don’t move them for at least 45 seconds. It’s tempting to shake the pan, but don’t! Keeping them still allows the sugars to caramelise and they’ll come away from the pan without sticking.
*Parsley is a shared ingredient. On the 3-Night Plan, use half for this recipe. On the 4- or 5-Night Plan, use one third.
Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil.
Chop the tail off the Brussels sprouts, cut them in quarters.
Remove the parsley leaves from the stalk and roughly chop.
Chop the walnuts into pieces.
Cook pasta for 12 minutes, or until al dente.
Before you strain the pasta, reserve 1 cup of the water.
Heat a drizzle of oil in a fry pan over high heat. Cook the Brussels sprouts for 5 minutes until caramelised. Don’t toss them too much. Add a few splashes of pasta water and keep cooking until fully cooked. Add salt at the end, don’t be shy as sprouts need quite a bit.
Add the spinach to the sprouts and fold through.
Once the pasta has cooked, strain. Return to the pot and toss with olive oil and a pinch of salt.
Once Brussels sprouts are cooked, add 2/3rds to the pasta along with the tapenade. Stir through, so that the pasta is evenly coated, then add a little of the pasta water to loosen the tapenade.
Add the lemon juice and zest to the pasta as well as half the walnuts, then season with salt and pepper. Mix well, taste. And salt if needed.
Dish up the pasta into bowls and top with the rest of the sprouts, parsley and walnuts.
