Step 1
You will need:
3/4 cup Virgin Olive oil
3 Tbl spoons of chopped garlic
2 tsp of red pepper flake
A box of your favorite pasta.
Fresh broccoli florets
2 cups of Grated Parmesan Cheese - make sure it's got a great flavor.
A box of your favorite pasta....any kind will do -
Step 2
Mix the oil, the garlic and the red pepper flake together in a small pot, on the lowest possible flame warm enough just to infuse the flavors. Stir a couple of times. Leave this warming until the pasta is done. If your oil gets to hot, you'll have crunchy hard garlic (yuck)
-
Step 3
In a large pot, add your water and salt to boil.
Start prepping your broccoli by breaking the florets into bit size pieces.
-
Step 4
When the water is ready for the pasta, add it to the water and cook it as directed.
Add the broccoli to the boiling pasta for the last 2 minutes of the cooking time, carefully drain away all the water.
-
Step 5
With the pasta and cooked broccoli in the same pot that you cooked it in, add the warm olive oil mix and stir well.
-
Step 6
Add the cheese a cup at a time, use a large spoon to mix it well.
(if you add all the cheese at once, you will end up with a HUGE cheese blob.)
You can add more cheese or go with less...whatever you like.
Enjoy!
I'm glad to hear you enjoy it though!
