Add the carrots and cook for a few minutes, then add the leeks and cook until softened, a few more minutes. Add the escarole and cook until wilted. Season with salt, pepper and a little nutmeg.

Divide the pasta among 4 bowls, nesting a bundle of noodles in each dish. Ladle the soup over the pasta and serve.
