Spicy Garlic And Anchovy Farfalle Recipes

QUICK ANCHOVY AND GARLIC SAUCE

Steps:

• 1/2 pound pasta for 2 generous servings.
• Prepare the sauce while the pasta water is boiling.
• I like to use vermicelli.
• In a small skillet melt the butter.
• Add minced garlic.
• Cook until golden brown until it smells toasted.
• Do not let it scorch or it will taste bitter.
• When the garlic is golden brown, add the entire can of anchovies, including oil and the 3 tablespoons of olive oil.
• Cook and stir until the anchovies dissolve.
• If the pasta is not cooked yet, turn off the heat.
• When the pasta is cooked, finish the sauce.
• Add light cream to the sauce, and cook until it comes to a rolling boil.
• Pour over the well drained pasta and toss vigorously.
• Serve with parmesan cheese.

FARFALLE WITH BROCCOLI

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook, stirring occasionally. After 5 minutes, add the broccoli florets to the pasta and stir and cook for another 4 minutes. Drain pasta and broccoli, reserving 1 cup of the pasta water.
• Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat. Add the garlic, anchovies, and red pepper flakes and cook for 5 minutes. Add the broccoli, pasta, salt and pepper and toss. Add some of the reserved pasta water, if necessary, to make a light sauce. Transfer to a serving platter and sprinkle with Parmesan.
