Cooking InstructionsHide images
step 1
Add approximately Water (20 3/4 cups) to a large pot and put it on the stove at a medium-high temperature. Cut the Broccoli (11 cups) into pieces.
step 2
Once the water has boiled, throw in some Rock Salt (to taste) and mix it through. Now, add the broccoli.
step 3
After a few minutes, add the Spaghetti (14 oz) and cook it to the instructions on the packet. Cook the spaghetti and broccoli together.
step 4
In a salad bowl, add the Ricotta Cheese (1 1/4 cups) and some boiling water. Add a little boiling water at a time and mix well. Keep doing this until you get a nice smooth cream.
step 5
Once the pasta has finished cooking, strain the pasta and add them to a saucepan, adding a little boiled water as you go. Add some Extra-Virgin Olive Oil (as needed) and the ricotta cream, reserving some to decorate the plate.
step 6
Mix together well and then swirl and toss the pasta around to get all of the ingredients at the bottom.
step 7
Serve the pasta broccoli on a nice plate and finish the dish by adding the ricotta cream and Pecorino Romano Cheese (to taste) on top. Serve and enjoy!
