Ever since I was young one of my favorite meals as been what my family calls pasta agliolio. Basically broccoli sauteed in garlic and oil tossed with spaghetti or angel hair. Yum!
The ingredients are pretty simple. Broccoli, garlic (I used two cloves), olive oil, and pasta. I used whole grain spaghetti.
First cut the broccoli into roughly bite size pieces. Simple.
Then steam the broccoli however you like. There are multiple ways to do this. I brought about a quarter of an inch of water to a boil in a pan, put the broccoli in, covered, and steamed for three minutes. That is all it takes.
While that is steaming, mince up some garlic, however many cloves you would like. Then add this to a couple tablespoons of olive oil in a pan on low-medium heat.
By the way, the pasta should be boiling at the same time. The most complicated part of this dish is balancing the timing so that everything is ready to be combined at about the same time.
When the broccoli is done, drain, and then add it to the garlic and oil pan. Toss evenly and sautee for a few minutes.
Drain the pasta of course.
Put all of the parts into a bowl together and toss completely to combine and coat the pasta in the oil, garlic, and broccoli.
Dish some out for yourself, add a glass of milk, and enjoy!
I am super proud of myself that I have now blogged two nights in a row! Go me! Hopefully I can keep this up.
As always, thanks for reading,
