Bright Green Pasta with Anchovies and Dried Tomatoes

Ingredients:

• 250 grams of spiral or shell pasta (about 9 ounces)
• 300 grams of broccoli (about 10.5 ounces)
• 3-4 anchovies
• 2 cloves of garlic
• Dried tomatoes
• Olive oil
• Salt
• Black pepper
• Grated cheese

Instructions:

Boil the broccoli for about 5–7 minutes, then rinse it under cold water to preserve its vibrant color. Place the broccoli in a bowl and mash it with a fork.

Finely chop the anchovies and press the garlic. Add the anchovies and the garlic to the mashed broccoli, drizzle the broccoli mixture generously with olive oil, season the mixture with salt, and mix the ingredients well. Cook the pasta until al dente, then combine it with the broccoli mixture.

Top the pasta with grated cheese and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
