1
Cook the fusilli
Bring a medium sauce pot of generously salted water to a boil. Stir in the fusilli and cook, stirring occasionally, until just tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain the fusilli, reserving 2 tablespoons (¼ cup) pasta cooking water.
While the water heats and the fusilli cooks, prepare the remaining ingredients.

Prep the remaining ingredients; finish the dish
Trim the root end from the leek; cut the leek in half lengthwise, then crosswise into thin half-moons. Rinse well.
Remove any coarse stems from the broccoli leaves; cut leaves crosswise into ½-inch-wide strips.
In a small bowl, stir together the cheddar, yogurt, and mustard.
Finely chop the chives. Set aside half for garnish.
In a large sauce pot over medium-high heat, warm 1 tablespoon oil until hot but not smoking. Add the leek, season with salt, and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the broccoli leaves and smoky spice blend and cook, stirring occasionally, until the leaves are wilted and the spice blend is fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes.
Remove from the heat and stir in the cheddar mixture, fusilli, reserved pasta cooking water, and half the chives. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Serve
Transfer the fusilli to individual bowls, garnish with the remaining chives, and serve.
