Method

1

Cook the conchigliette in heavily salted water until al dente.

2

In a sauté pan, over a medium heat, heat EVOO and anchovy oil.

3

Add the garlic, chilli and rosemary, and sizzle for 2-3 mins until the garlic is just starting to turn golden.

4

When the pasta has 4 mins to go, add the broccoli and cauliflower.

5

To the frying pan, add the anchovies, capers and lemon juice. Cook for 1-2 mins until the anchovies melt into the sauce.

6

When the pasta and veg are cooked, drain (reserving a cup of the pasta water) then transfer to the frying pan. Stir and cook over a low heat for a further 2 mins (add pasta water to loosen, if needed).

7

Remove from the heat and stir through parmesan and black pepper.

8

Serve and top with extra chilli flakes and toasted flaked almonds!
