Ingredients

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cut the broccoli into small florets and mince the garlic.
Cook the fresh pasta in boiling water until just al dente. Add the broccoli florets for the final 3–4 minutes so they become tender. Drain (reserve a splash of the cooking water if desired).
Fresh Pasta: 500 g
Broccoli: 300 g
Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium-low heat and gently sauté the garlic for 1–2 minutes until fragrant (do not brown).
Olive Oil (EV): 2 tbsp
Garlic: 2 cloves
Add the drained pasta and broccoli to the pan and toss with the garlic oil. Off the heat, stir in the cheddar until melted and creamy, loosening with a little cooking water if needed. Season with black pepper and serve hot.
Cheddar Grated: 150 g
Black Pepper: 0.5 tsp
