List of Ingredients




1 large bunch broccoli

Salted water

2 tablespoons butter

1 tablespoon finely chopped shallots or scallions, including green part

1 1/2 tablespoons flour

1 cup fresh or canned chicken broth

4 anchovies, finely chopped

1/2 cup sliced ripe olives, preferably imported

Cook the broccoli in salted water until tender. As the vegetables cook, melt the butter in a saucepan and add the shallots and garlic. Cook, stirring about 3 minutes. Do not brown. Sprinkle with flour and add the broth. Stir vigorously with a wire whisk. When the mixture is thickened, simmer 5 minutes. Add the anchovies, olives, pepper and cheese and stir until cheese melts. Drain the broccoli, and pour the sauce over. Serves 4 - 6.
