This is based in an Ottolenghi recipe. The broccoli cooks down with the pasta so it’s all in one pot 🙌
It’s pretty quick, delicious and filling 😋

Steps

1

Heat 1 tbsp of the oil in a large, flat-ish pan (with a lid for later). Sauté 3 of the garlic cloves until golden and fragrant.
2

Add the capers, broccoli and 1/2 of the lemon zest. Add a few grinds of pepper and a generous pinch of sea salt. Cook for about 4 mins.
3

Add the stick and butter. Bring to a simmer and cook until the broccoli starts to soften- for about 5 mins.
4

Stir in the pasta and about 1 tbsp of grated parmesan. Add a pinch of salt. Turn the heat to medium and cover. Cook for 12-15 mins depending on the pasta. If you use fresh pasta, add the pasta later.
5

Meanwhile mix the rocket, herbs, the last garlic clove and the rest of the lemon zest. When the pasta is cooked, stir the leaves and the chilli flakes in. Grate over some more parmesan.
6

To serve, drizzle some olive oil over the pasta and add the lemon juice. Enjoy 😋
