Notes and Variations

If you don’t like ricotta, you can use Parmesan or Grana Padano. Besides basil, you can add flavor with thyme or mint.

Don’t cook too long in the pan, otherwise, the broccoli will lose their bright color.

You can blend the broccoli until you get a cream, or stop earlier if you want a coarser texture.

You can finish with a fresh ricotta or burrata cream, which you will pour on the bottom of the plate before adding the pasta.
