Cooking Steps
- Boil plenty of salted water in a large pot or saucepan and cook the pasta for 10 - 12 minutes.
- Cut the head of the broccoli into small florets and finely dice the stem. Cook the broccoli along for the last 4 - 6 minutes.
- Drain and set aside.
- Meanwhile, prepare the stock.
Did you know... broccoli is considered a superfood, and for good reason - not only is it high in vitamins B, C and E, it's also a great source of calcium, potassium and iron.
- Chop the onion and garlic.
- Melt a knob of butter in a deep frying pan over medium-high heat and fry the onion and garlic for 2 minutes, then whisk in the flour.
- Pour in a third of the stock and whisk continuously to incorporate, then repeat twice more with the rest of the stock to make a smooth sauce.
- Bring to a boil, then allow to thicken and reduce for 1 - 2 minutes.
- In the meantime, melt a small knob of butter in a frying pan over medium-high heat and fry the mince with the Sicilian-style herbs for 4 - 6 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- Chop the fresh herbs, making sure to keep them separate.
- Add the cooking cream and oregano to the roux and stir well until combined (see tip). Let simmer until serving. Season with salt and pepper.
- Roughly chop the salted almonds. Quarter the lemon.
Health Tip: This recipe is high in calories. If you're watching your calorie intake, substitute the cream for milk or stock and simmer the sauce for a longer time. You can keep the cream to use another time.
- Mix the pasta and broccoli with the sauce.
- Serve the pasta on deep plates and top with the mince and garnish with the basil.
- For the parents, garnish with the salted almonds and pesto cheese cubes.
- Serve with the lemon wedges.
