Italy, Recipe: Pasta with Broccoli Rapini
Take the stems off the broccoli rapini and boil for 8-10 minutes till soft. Put your favorite pasta into boiling water. Saute some garlic in good olive oil, drain the broccoli rapini, put in the oil / garlic, saute on low till the pasta is done or about 8 minutes. Drain pasta, put into the broccoli rapini & oil, add some of the pasta cooking water, mix well. Dress with grated pecorino cheese, maybe some red pepper flakes if you like them.
Spectacular with Vernaccia, Falanghina, Greco di Tufo
