Clean fresh broccoli and divide into florets (no need for frozen broccoli). Boil the pasta and broccoli separately in salted water for about 10 minutes. Shake each through a sieve to drain. Heat the oil in a pan and melt the cheese, stirring frequently as it burns easily. Add the pasta and broccoli to the cheese sauce and mix well. Then add the sweet cream. Season to taste with salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Simmer everything together for another 5 minutes (stirring constantly, otherwise the cheese sauce will burn quickly). Serve immediately.
