As an Italian I can say this is something we ate every Friday. Minus the parm / we always used pecorino.
Humble, every-day food is often so much better than restaurant classics. Thank you for sharing ❤
If you feel lazier here’s an alternative my Italian/Greek dad makes, even healthier than this: boil the broccoli in water in the pot where you plan to cook the pasta. When it's soft, remove it. Cook the pasta as you would normally, in the broccoli infused water. Once cooked al dente, drain pasta, mix the two, broccoli is soft so will crumble, no need to mash, and drizzle with fresh olive oil and if you so wish grated parmigiano. I think he adds lemon too but I don’t 🎉
YUPPP. I’m Italian and can definitely confirm. This is also my favourite dish and my mom makes it any time I’m sad or it’s my birthday etc 😂
Nice … LOVE this Peasant Food Series. Easy, Simple, Delish.
I'm eating this right now, from your recipe. My gosh, it's delicious!!! Thank you!
This sounds perfect for frozen broccoli that i can never get to be crunchy.
I make this with cauliflower. No one even knows the anchovies are there but they are what gives the dish its richness. Love it.
My Italian mom would make a recipe similar. She used pepperoni instead of anchovies and didn’t smash the broccoli. I loved it as a kid. When she died I told my aunt how I would miss that. My aunt laughed that it was so simple. I knew that but it’s. Ever quite the same. 😊
Smashing the broccoli was a total plot twist for me. Looks and sounds yummy!
Fits right into Good Friday & Lent meals.
Yum ... Sounds Delicious ❤
Okay I'm sold. I'm going to make this!
Yes! It's so good. Kids love it!
This looks so delicious 😋🤤
I just discovered you. I’m totally going to Bing all of your videos. Tonight I’m making this dish. You have a great voice for talking about FOOD. My favorite thing.
A version of that is my favourite meal. There is something magic about the combination of garlic, broccoli and anchovies!!
Brocoli and cheese is always a fantastic combo
I love this series so much! Its not easy to find simple, wholesome recipes like this, and as a someone trying to make cheaper and healthier meals, these recipes are the best! <3
