Farfalle With Broccoli - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 lb farfalle pasta (bowtie)
    2 heads broccoli, trimmed to florets (4 cups)
    4 tablespoons olive oil
    4 tablespoons butter
    3 garlic cloves, chopped
    5 anchovy fillets, diced (I used 3)
    1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon black pepper
    1/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated
Preparation
    Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat.
    Add the pasta and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minute.
    After 5 minute add the broccoli florets to the pasta and stir. Cook for another 4 minute.
    Drain pasta and broccoli, reserving 1 cup of the pasta water.
    Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat.
    Add the garlic, anchovies, and red pepper flakes and cook for 5 minute.
    Add the broccoli and pasta; toss to coat.
    Add some of the pasta water to make a nice sauce. Season with salt and pepper and Parmesan cheese and toss again to melt some of the cheese and thicken the sauce.
    Transfer to a platter to serve.
