Ingredients

1 1/4 cup broccoli, cut into florets 150 g
140 g gluten free/wheat free spaghetti
1 1/2 tbsp olive oil 23 mL
1/2 onions, coarsely chopped 100 g
1/4 dried chili peppers, minced 0.1 g
1/2 tbsp turmeric 5 g
20 shrimp, small size, cooked 110 g
1/4 cup pasta cooking water 65 mL
2 tbsp pine nuts [optional] 16 g
1 pinch salt [optional] 0.2 g
ground pepper to taste [optional]

Before you start

Keep the serving plates warm on the stove while you're preparing the dish.

Put a colander in the sink to drain the cooked pasta so that it will be ready when needed.

Method

  1. Prepare the broccoli: rinse to clean then cut to separate the florets from the stalks. Peel and discard any tough skin from the stalks then cut them into small pieces. Blanch and drain the broccoli, then set aside.
  2. To save time, the rest of the sauce preparation and the pasta cooking can be done at the same time. Start cooking the pasta.
  3. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a skillet over medium-low heat. Add the onion then sauté until it is translucent, 2-3 min. Stir in the chili pepper and turmeric. Cook 1 min with stirring. Add the shrimp and broccoli to warm them up.
  4. Drain the pasta, setting aside the required amount of cooking water. Pour the pasta into the skillet. Cook 1 min, then pour in the water and stir to separate the strands of pasta.
  5. Sprinkle with the pine nuts (optional), then season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve in the warmed dishes.
