Ben de Lisi drew on his Italian cooking skills to prepare this broccoli pasta dish in the celebrity week of Come Dine With Me.
1. Par boil the broccoli in a large pot until bright green (al dente) Take the veg out and save water!
2. In a separate pan brown garlic in some olive oil and then once garlic is golden add anchovy and stir until melted. Once done set aside.
3. Take the pasta and cook in the broccoli water until cooked. After it is cooked save a mug full of the pasta water. Drain the rest. Take the saved water the lemon juice and two or three broccoli tops and blend until soupy.
4. Pour the oil, garlic and anchovy mixture over the pasta and stir until coated then add the broccoli and lemon mixture with the remaining broccoli and fold together. Serve with grated pecorino.
