Directions

30 min.
1. Step

Cook the pasta according to the package instructions. It is always good to cook them \al dente\ so that they are still a little hard. The water in which the pasta has been cooked does not have to be poured off completely, it can be used to harden the sauce.

2. Step

Divide the broccoli into florets and place in a bowl with a little water. Microwave it on maximum power for two minutes - this method will ensure the broccoli stays beautifully green and crisp.

3. Step

Heat the olive oil in a frying pan, add the finely chopped garlic and sauté briefly.

4. Step

Add the sliced ham and let roast for a few minutes to get the ham nicely browned and flavorful.

5. Step

Add the already cooked pasta and broccoli to the ham and mix everything together. If the pasta seems too dry, we can add a little pasta water.

6. Step

Season the pasta with salt and pepper to taste and let it simmer for about 2 minutes.
