BROCCOLI WITH ANCHOVIES AND GARLIC
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.

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.
