Start heating a large saucepan of water (for the pasta and broccoli).

Meanwhile heat the olive oil in a wide pan, add the anchovies and heat until they start to break apart.

Add the bruised garlic, chilli pepper and olives and toss in the oil until they sizzle. Turn off the heat and set aside.

When water in saucepan comes to the boil add a small amount of salt (less than usual for pasta as the sauce is salty).

Add the frozen broccoli.

Put lid on saucepan and wait for the water to return to the boil.

Once water starts bubbling again, add the orecchiette.

Cook for approx. 7 minutes. Cooking times will vary according to the pasta you use - check your packet!

Drain the pasta and broccoli in a colander, retaining a little of the cooking water.

Add the pasta and the broccoli to the pan with anchovies and olives, mix well and heat the contents for several minutes, adding a little of the cooking water if necessary.

Turn off the heat and add a handful of fresh parsley.
