Cooking cruciferous vegetables without boiling them, as in this recipe, seems to make them more fragrant and heady-just the way the robust Romans like their food.

Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
3 pounds broccoli, cut into spears
1 cup Frascati or other dry white wine
1 tablespoon hot red pepper flakes
Grated zest of 1 lemon
Grated zest of 1 orange

Steps:

  • 1. In a 10- to 12-inch sauté pan, heat the olive oil with the garlic over medium-high heat until just sizzling. Add the broccoli and cook, tossing frequently and gradually adding the wine to keep the garlic from browning until the stalks are tender 8 to 10 minutes.

BROCCOLI WITH ANCHOVIES AND GARLIC



Broccoli With Anchovies and Garlic image

Admit it. Broccoli, that ubiquitous vegetable side dish, gets old. This take, which Pierre Franey brought to The Times in 1987 as part of his 60-Minute Gourmet column, will not. It is not much different - and no more difficult - than your standard broccoli sauté except for the addition of anchovies. If that word normally frightens you, fear not. Here, they are barely detectable as such, but provide a complex salinity that salt alone cannot. You'll never eat boring broccoli again.

Categories     side dish

Time 10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 bunch of broccoli, about 1 1/4 pounds
Salt to taste
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon finely minced garlic
1/4 teaspoon dried hot red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon anchovy paste or 4 anchovies, smashed into a paste

Steps:

  • Cut off the broccoli tops into individual florets. Cut the stems crosswise into 2-inch lengths. Trim off the outside of the stems and cut the trimmed pieces diagonally into 1/4-inch slices. There should be about 6 cups in all.
  • Bring enough water to a boil to cover the broccoli when it is added. Add salt and the broccoli pieces and cook 3 minutes. Drain.
  • Heat the oil in a skillet and add the broccoli pieces. Cook, stirring, over relatively high heat, and add the garlic, pepper flakes and anchovy paste. Cook, tossing and stirring the ingredients together, about 1 minute. Serve.

Yield serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
6 garlic cloves, sliced
2 anchovies, chopped
1 large head broccoli, cut into 1 1/2-inch florets
1/4 teaspoon peperoncino flakes
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large straight-sided skillet over medium-high heat. Toss in the garlic; once the garlic is sizzling, add the anchovies. Cook and stir until the anchovies dissolve and sizzle in the oil, about 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Add the broccoli to the skillet, and season with the peperoncino and salt. Pour 1/2 cup of water into the skillet, bring to a simmer, cover, and cook until the broccoli is tender, about 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the lid, and increase heat to high to boil away any excess liquid. Serve.
