Managia Pasquale I love this dish brings back so many memories my mom would make it all the time I always added more anchovies to my plate so glad you make these dishes hope your shoulder is getting better.

What a great dish, good job! I do it in a very similar way, but I put half of the broccoli in the water right away and leave it in much longer, and then add the pasta to the already over-cooked broccoli. By the time the pasta is cooked, the broccoli in the water is super soft. When the broccoli and pasta is scooped out into the pan, it’s so soft it becomes “pesto” like you said, then you mix it in and stir it around a bit. In the frying pan, I do it the same way, except I put half of the raw broccoli in with the garlic, red pepper and anchovies just before adding the soft broccoli and pasta. Sautée it over high heat so it browns a bit, then add the pasta and soft broccoli. This way you have that “green sauce”, AND you have crispy, still whole sautéed broccoli florets in your dish…best of both worlds!
