Last week we had a large romanesco cauliflower in the vegbox, way too pretty to just eat as a side dish , I have made a cauliflower risotto with anchovy crumbs before but even quicker is this simple pasta dish.

Cook the pasta according to the instructions placing the cauliflower in the water for the last 5 minutes , it should still be slightly al dente drain and sprinkle with the anchovy crumbs
