      Small tip for this pasta: give it a little touch of lime (just 4 drops) and fresh mint from the vegetable garden. This, along with the broccoli, gives it a rich sense of flavor (The mint leaf is full of important minerals and vitamins for the body). With this combination you have simplicity and extra healthy

      You don't have to do it, just use less heat ;) I think this works because as water evaporates it cools down the pan and the oil. Since it evaporates at around 100 Celsius degree it is low enough to prevent the garlic from burning.

      @@pavel9652 You're technically correct, but missing the point. If you use the water, it will ensure that your pan temp remains around (wait for it...) 100°C. Dead nuts reliable, no gadget required.

      ​@@fun_ghoul Thanks for the comment. It is not necessarily true on a large pan, since it might have colder and hotter spots, depending on the distribution of oil and products on the pan as well as the heat source. Check it with an IR thermometer or FLIR camera if you have the gadgets ;) Mixing the water and hot oil, in general, is not a great idea.

    Love this dish, my Family has been eating this from childhood. My grandparents on both sides are Sicilian. My Mother always made it especially during Lent. My Mother added more garlic. She used Romano cheese.. yummy. If she didn’t have enough Romano cheese, she made poor man’s cheese, by sauté garlic in extra virgin olive oil, adding breadcrumbs, and what Romano cheese she had, black pepper, pinch of salt to taste, fresh Italian parsley. Best wishes ♥️♥️🙏🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸

      I just tried Vincenzo's version and noticed that it was missing some acidity, maybe the pasta water was a bit too salty. I also immediately thought of lemon but had none in the house. A little bit of light red wine vinegar had to do and it does work, gonna try with balsamico too. But the freshness of lemon would still be better.

    This has become one of my wife's favorite pasta dishes, she loves broccoli and she sometimes did a simple dish stir frying it with garlic. This just added a few more ingredients to that.
    I usually cook my pasta with 1,5 - 2 tbsp of salt in about 4L of water, but I feel that 1 tbsp should be enough here, since both the broccoli and the pasta will take some of that salt into the final dish and with the cup of pasta water it might get too salty.

      @@vincenzosplate Just made my first plate of this recipe and wow! As I assumed it was love at the first bite :) Unfortunately I had to take Parmiggiano Reggiano to grate into it instead of Peccorino because they only had it with pistachio and I do not like this fancy stuff at all. (oddly they had about 12 sorts of Parmiggiano and ONLY this one "Peccorino"..) I could have tried it with Manchego instead but I wanted to keep it italian. Still a great dish and easy as 123.. and cooked with love and a bit of the pasta-water it was so "yummy".. I almost boiled my tongue because I could not wait to eat it :)

    This has become an addition to my rotation. Healthy, filling, cheap, not exactly well balanced but delicious and makes me actually crave broccoli. If you haven't tried it, make it. It's legitimately worth it. What I tend to do, to produce less mess, is half fill the pasta pan, fill another, smaller pan and put the broccoli in the smaller pan with half the salt. Then drain it over the pasta water pan. Not as efficient really but much less finnicky and easy to mess up. I should probably put less salt in it, but it does need some good salt, so don't be afraid to put a good amount in. Love it.

    Dear Vincenzo,
    Thank you for this wonderful recipe! Growing up, every Monday (when everyone was tired from work and school, and nobody wanted to cook) my family would eat steamed broccoli, with store bought ravioli and sauce from a jar. We used good quality ravioli and prepared sauce, but it was only so-so because we did not have the right techniques. I made this pasta for myself today after a long day of work, with a small salad of basil and cherry tomatoes. I used organic alce nero brand spaghetti, the best I can find here in Thailand, and a whole broccolo for one person, so there was more broccoli than pasta. Otherwise I followed your instructions exactly, and it was a perfect, simple meal. It was so healthy and light that I went to the gym an hour after eating, and even while doing 40 minutes on the treadmill my stomach was feeling great, not even a little bit uncomfortable. Thank you for changing the way I cook and eat, I tell everyone I know to watch your videos! Ciao 💜

We still eat this weekly and whenever I cook for friends it's one of the dishes I make, because they've never even heard of it. Its so simple and so delicious. We have two ways of doing this. This way and the other way is we add home made hot Italian sausage to it. Its amazing.
    Edit: in my opinion the right cheese makes it. When I dont have peckorino I use real parm.(don't hate me) But peckorino is where it's at. We also always add pepper flakes.
