- 1 tbsp Balsamic Vinegar
- 12 oz Penne pasta
- 2 tbsp Butter unsalted

- 3 tbsp Plain flour
- 16 oz Whole milk
- 2 tsp Wholegrain mustard

- Toss the sprouts in the oil and vinegar, then tip into a roasting tin. Bake for 10-15 mins, tossing again halfway through.
- Cook the pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water until it has a slight bite (around two minutes less than pack instructions), then drain and set aside.
- Heat the butter in a large skillet. Add the garlic and flour and cook for 1-2 mins. Gradually add the milk until the mixture is smooth, then simmer for 5 mins until thick.
