Ingredients:
12 ounces penne pasta |
12 ounces broccoli |
1 onion |
2 tablespoons pine nuts |
2 slices prosciutto |
1/4 cup feshly grated parmesan cheese |
3 tablespoons olive oil |
salt & pepper, to taste |
Directions:
1. - Heat the pine nuts in a pan (no grease) for a few minutes (they'll get dry and more crunchy)
2. - Cut the Prosciutto slices in small strips.
3. - Peel and mince the onion ; fry it in 2 Tbs. olive oil
4. - Prepare the broccoli in very small bunches; boil them in salted water for 5 minutes.
5. - Boil the pasta in salted water and strain them when they are still a little firm; spread 1 Tbs.of olive oil and mix.
6. - In the onion pan, pour the pasta and broccoli and add pepper; saute for
7. 2 minutes (turn gently) then spread with the prosciutto and pine nuts.
8. - Serve right away with the parmesan cheese on the table.
9. Hint : you may choose to put the parmesan in the pasta before the pine nuts and ham and turn. I prefer to do that because the parmesan cheese melts better in the dish when it is done.
