• Meanwhile, peel the garlic cloves, leaving them whole, then cut them lengthwise into thin slices. Cook the garlic slices in the olive oil in a heavy skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the oil bubbles, then reduce the heat to medium-low and cook the garlic slowly, stirring occasionally, until pale golden, 5 to 6 minutes. Stir in the red pepper and remove the pan from the heat (the garlic will continue to cook in the residual heat).
• Add the pasta to the boiling salted water and cook it, stirring once or twice in the beginning, according to the package instructions. About 4 to 5 minutes before the pasta is done (depending on how tender your broccoli rabe is), stir in the broccoli rabe and continue to boil the mixture, uncovered, until the pasta is al dente and the broccoli rabe is tender.
• Drain the pasta mixture in a colander and transfer it to a large serving bowl. Spoon the garlic/oil mixture over the pasta and drizzle it with additional olive oil to taste.

Steps:

• Trim off the larger, tough stems of the rabe, leaving only the tender, slender stems, leaves and bulbous offshoots. If desired, you may trim the outer tougher stems by scraping the sides or, preferably, pulling away the outer coating of the stems.
• Rinse the reserved edible portions, leaving the water that clings to the pieces.
• In a saucepan heat the oil and add the garlic, pepper flakes and anchovy. Add the rabe with the water that clings to the pieces. It is not necessary to add more liquid, but watch the vegetable carefully as it cooks so that it does not stick and burn. Cover closely and cook over moderate heat. Turn the broccoli pieces over and over so that they cook evenly. Cook 4 to 5 minutes, or until the pieces are tender. Do not overcook, or they will become mushy.
• Meanwhile, bring the water to the boil with salt to taste. Add the pasta and cook, stirring often, until tender, 10 minutes or longer. Drain.
• Empty the pasta onto the rabe and stir in the butter. Toss gently to blend.

Steps:

• Bring the kettle with the cooking liquid to a boil. Add the pasta, and cook according to the package instructions. Do not overcook. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup of the cooking liquid.
• Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a deep skillet, and add the garlic. Cook briefly, do not brown. Add the pepper flakes, the sweet pepper, rosemary and oregano, and cook, stirring briefly. Add the crushed tomatoes, and salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a boil, and simmer for 8 minutes, stirring often.
• Add the drained pasta, the cooked broccoli rabe and the reserved cooking liquid, the remaining olive oil and the Parmesan cheese. Cook, stirring and tossing, for 1 minute. Check seasoning; serve immediately on hot serving plates.
