Broccoli Sausage ORECHIETTE is a rich and substantial Italian first course. A recipe with which you will be able to make even those who usually don’t appreciate it enjoy this vegetable.
Two ingredients that go perfectly with a type of pasta from Southern Italy, orecchiette, which combine successfully with this seasoning to create a succulent dish.
A quick and easy recipe to prepare for lunch or dinner for the whole family. A balanced dish, due to the presence of both vegetables and proteins and carbohydrates, can easily be considered a single dish.
If you like a spicy touch, you can add chilli pepper, fresh or powdered, to fry with the garlic at the beginning of the preparation.
Then, to make the orecchiette tastier, I recommend cooking them in the same water in which the broccoli was boiled, as for the recipe for orecchiette with turnip greens.
