- Blanch the broccoli(no more than 1 min) in the boiling water and set aside. Keep the same water for cooking your pasta. - In a large pan heat the oil and add anchovies and garlic, simmer until anchovies melt.
- Add the broccoli rape and fava beans into the pan and stir until well incorporated. When your pasta will be cooked (al dente!) with the slotted spoon add your pasta to the pan with broccoli and fava bean mixture
- Mix well, add half cup pasta water and keep mixing on a high heat for about a minute. Shut off the heat and add Parmesan cheese and extra olive oil. Mix well and serve.
Note: You can use canned fava beans if fresh are not in season. If you do use from a can, then you can add garlic, beans, and tomatoes in at the same time. Add pasta to the sauce and combine well. If too thick then add in pasta water. While there, surprisingly fava beans were in season, ( so early!) and a small restaurant we loved featured them in a fresh pasta dish.
