Ingredients
- 3 pounds fresh broccoli, with leaves, or broccoli rabe
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 8 cloves garlic, sliced in half
- 10 salted anchovies, cleaned, filleted and roughly chopped
Method
- Trim the broccoli into long stalks, removing the bottom 2 inches and leaving the leaves attached.
- Bring 6 quarts of water to a boil.
- Meanwhile, place a 12 to 14-inch saute pan over medium heat and add the olive oil.
- Add the garlic and anchovies and cook 5 minutes, until just golden brown and very fragrant.
- While the garlic and anchovies cook, plunge broccoli into boiling water and cook for 1 minute.
- Remove broccoli from water, drain well, and add it to the pan with the garlic and anchovies.
- Cook 10 to12 minutes, until tender and yet still holding its shape.
- Remove from heat and season aggressively with pepper and timidly with salt.
- This dish may be served hot or at room temperature.
