Directions

Heat the oil in a large flameproof casserole or large sauté pan. Cook the celeriac, leek and thyme for 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until softening and taking on a little colour.
Meanwhile, cook the pasta in a pan of boiling, salted water according to pack instructions.
Add the milk and kale to the casserole pan and simmer for 5 minutes, until the vegetables are tender and kale is starting to wilt. Dissolve the cornflour in a little water, then stir into the pan with the roasted garlic paste, cannellini beans and 75g cheese. Keep stirring until slightly thickened. Season to taste.
Preheat the grill to medium. Drain the pasta, stir into the other ingredients, then check the seasoning. Remove the thyme stalks. Tip into a large baking dish. Scatter over the remaining cheese, then grill for 3-4 minutes until bubbling and golden.
