350 g broccoli, head cut into small florets and stems peeled and cut into thin rounds (300g after trimming)
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
6 anchovy fillets, chopped

300 g linguine, preferably home made

2 tablespoons parmesan cheese, grated

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 100°C Place a large serving bowl inside to warm.
Bring a large saucepan of salted water to boil. Drop in the trimmed broccoli. When the water returns to the boil, cook for 2 minutes exactly and then scoop the broccoli into a colander resting over a mixing bowl.
Heat the oil in a large heavy-based non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Saute the garlic for a few seconds until it smells gragrand and add the anchovies. Stir with a wooden spoon until th eanchovies have melted. Tip in the chilli and the reserved broccoli.
Bring the broccoli cooking water back to the boil and drop in the pasta. It will take just 2-3 minutes to cook.
As soon as the pasta is ready, drain it through the colander now resting in the sink, give it a big shake and then tip it into the frying pan, with the butter and parmesan. Toss well and transfer to the heated serving bowl.
