Instructions

1. 1

   Boil the Pumpkin in aggressively salted water, stirring early, and set a timer for one minute less than the packet says.

2. 2

   Meanwhile, heat a generous glug of olive oil and crisp Noodles until the edges catch colour.

3. 3

   Add Garlic with a splash of the pasta water so it steams and softens into the pan.

4. 4

   Transfer the drained Pumpkin into the pan and toss with real intent — tongs, high heat, thirty seconds of tossing.

5. 5

   Watch the sauce: when it clings rather than pools, it's ready; more pasta water is the fix for anything too tight.

6. 6

   Finish off the heat with cheese tossed through (never piled on top), and serve at once.
