Ingredients:
4 bunches (12 to 16 ounces each) broccoli rabe (rapini), stems trimmed |
1/4 cup olive oil |
3 garlic cloves, chopped |
1/2 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper flakes |
1/3 cup raisins |
salt |
2 tablespoons pine nuts, toasted |
Directions:
1. Working in batches, cook the broccoli rabe in a large pot of boiling salted water until crisp tender, about 1 minute per bunch. Transfer the broccoli rabe to a large bowl of ice water to cool. Reserve about 1/4 cup of the cooking liquid. Strain the cooled broccoli rabe and set aside. 2. Heat the oil in a heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes, and saute until the garlic is golden, about 1 minute. Reduce heat to medium-low. Add the broccoli rabe and toss to coat. Add the reserved cooking water, the raisins, and cook until the broccoli rabe is heated through and the stems are tender, about 4 minutes. Season with salt, to taste. Just before serving, toss the mixture with the pine nuts. |
