Method:
Boil the pasta in salted water, cooking it until it’s slightly firm (just before al dente). Then, add the cleaned and chopped broccoli to the pot and cook together for another 4 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a pan, sauté the sliced garlic, chopped walnuts, and crushed chilli in olive oil. Add the lemon juice, finely grated lemon zest, and the drained pasta and broccoli (save a bit of the pasta water and add it to the pan too). Mix everything together, add 50 g of Parmesan, and stir again. Season with pepper and salt, and if needed, add a little more water. Top the dish with the remaining Parmesan when serving, and enjoy!
