Print This Recipe
INGREDIENTS 1 large head broccoli
1 pound angel hair pasta
1 large head elephant garlic
1/2 cup butter
Olive oil
Crushed red pepper
Parmesan cheese
White pepperCut broccoli into small pieces. Chop elephant garlic into small pieces.
Place broccoli in a microwave safe container. Add about 1/4 cup water. Cover tightly with plastic wrap. Cook in microwave on HIGH for 3 to 5 minutes. Check for doneness. You want to keep the broccoli a little crisp.
While the broccoli is cooking, cook angel hair pasta until slightly firm. Drain.
Melt the stick of butter in the pan you cooked the angel hair pasta in. Add angel hair back to pan and toss to coat pasta. Add broccoli and toss lightly.
Pour some olive oil in a small frying pan. Add chopped garlic and some crushed red pepper. Brown garlic. Garlic will clump together when done. Pour over pasta and broccoli. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and season with white pepper, as desired. Toss until well mixed.
