Instructions
Start by cooking your pasta following packet instructions. If you're cooking fresh pasta, it shouldn't take longer than 2-3 minutes. Once your pasta is cooked al dente, drain and run some cold water through to prevent the pasta from cooking further. Place cooked tagliatelle in a large bowl, drizzle with some olive oil and toss so that tagliatelle don't stick together. Set aside for later.
Place sliced tenderstem broccoli (broccolini) in a large pan, pour boiling water over and cook for 1-2 minutes until slightly softened but still retains vibrant green colour and has a bit of crunch. Drain and set aside for later.
In a large frying pan, heat 4 tablespoon of olive oil on low heat. Add the thinly sliced lemons and shallots and gently fry for 5-6 minutes. Add chilli flakes and capers, and stir. Then add broccoli and pasta and toss to combine. Cook for a couple of minutes to warm through.
Finally, crumble in the feta, add parsley and season with salt and pepper. Gently stir and divide between bowls. Enjoy!
