Pasta With Pancetta, Broccoli Or

    I have actually made this dish a few times and I love it. I followed recipe mostly, left the garlic in the pan and then 'toasted' my pine nuts before removing both and then continuing along. I also got my pasta timed fairly well, so managed to use pasta water for the 1 cup water and didn't end up needing to add extra at the end. Lovely dish.
