Step-by-Step Instructions

Get Prepped: Boil a full kettle. Cut Tenderstem® broccoli into thirds. Pour the boiled water into a saucepan with ½ tsp salt and bring back to a boil.
Cook the Pasta: Add the filled pasta and broccoli to the boiling water. Cook for 3-4 minutes. Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Add tomato purée and fry for 1-2 minutes.
Make the Sauce: Add the chicken stock paste, sugar, and water. Simmer for 1-2 minutes, then reduce heat. Stir in the butter until melted. Drain the pasta and broccoli.
Combine Everything: Gently mix the pasta, broccoli, sun-dried tomato paste, grated cheese, and chilli flakes (adjust to taste) into the sauce. Add a splash of water if needed.
Garnish & Serve: Divide between bowls. Top with rocket and Serrano ham. Drizzle balsamic glaze over the dish.

Chef’s Tip

For a less spicy version, reduce the amount of chilli flakes or omit them entirely.
