    Directions:

    Cook pasta until tender, but firm. Drain and rinse in cold water, drain well.

    Have ready two medium saute pans. Heat 1/4 cup oil in each until smoking.

    Add pasta carefully to each pan, dividing equally. Spread out in even layers and cook for about 3 minutes, or medium brown on underside. Turn pasta over and cook, WITHOUT stirring, until browned on the other side.

    Transfer pasta and oil in a large bowl and keep warm.

    Heat remaining 1/4 cup oil in one pan until hot. Add garlic and broccoli, saute and toss for about 5 minutes. Add wine, lemon juice, salt and pepper, cook for additional 3 minutes.

    Transfer to 13 X 9 flame proof baking dish.

    Add pasta, vinegar, butter and pine nuts to the baking dish and toss over medium high heat until butter is melted.

    Add 1/2 cup of cheese and toss again.

    Serve with remaining cheese and additional fresh ground pepper.
