SPAGHETTI WITH BROCCOLI SICILIAN-STYLE
Steps:
- Clean and wash the Romanesco broccoli, then cut into florets and boil them in salted water for about 5-6 minutes. Take out with a colander and set aside. Keep the cooking water, which you will use to cook the spaghetti.
- Soften the raisins and pine nuts in lukewarm water, then drain and set aside.
- Mince the onion and fry in a pan over medium heat. As soon as the onion is translucent, add the anchovy fillets, crushing them with a wooden spoon.
- Add the raisins and pine nuts and saute them for a few minutes.
- At this point, add the chopped broccoli and sprinkle with freshly ground pepper.
- Mix well with a wooden spoon, add a saffron sachet dissolved with a few spoonfuls of boiling water and cook for about 5 minutes.
- Cook the spaghetti in the water where the broccoli cooked in. Drain them, reserving some of the pasta water.
- Mix them with the seasoning, adding the pasta water as you toss them in the pan letting the ingredients coat them.
- Toast the breadcrumbs with a tablespoon of e.v.o. oil (paying attention not to burn it) and dust it over the pasta (cheese of the poor, says the tradition).
- Serve warm with a drizzle of e.v.o. oil on top.
SICILIAN PASTA AND BROCCOLI
This is a simple dish my grandmother made for me when I was a child. Now I make it for my daughter, Xea, and she loves it. As the broccoli takes on a toasty brown color, it develops a delicious nutty flavor that even picky kids will like.

Steps:
- Heat the water for your pasta while you prepare the broccoli.
- In a shallow, 10-inch saute pot, heat the 1 cup olive oil over medium-high heat (see Cook's Note). Add the broccoli to the oil and season it with salt. Saute the broccoli for about 4 minutes, or until it takes on a toasty color. The broccoli will absorb a lot of the oil, so if you find your pot getting dry, just add a little more oil to it. Throw in the garlic and cook for about another minute, until it's slightly brown. Don't burn the garlic! Take the broccoli off the heat and set it aside.
- Prepare the penne according to the package directions. Drain the pasta and toss it in the pot with the broccoli, garlic, and olive oil. If the mixture seems dry, add a little more oil.
- Toss in the Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, stir, and garnish with the parsley.
SICILIAN-STYLE BROCCOLI RABE
This is the way broccoli rabe was meant to be cooked. This goes great with a nice steak or fish. Serve with crusty Italian bread and some good vino. The best part is dipping the crusty bread in those juices. Buon appetito!
