   Meanwhile cook the pasta in boiling water as directed on package, until al dente.

   Add the pine nuts to the broccoli mixture and just before draining the pasta add the anchovies.

   Don't add them any sooner because they will give the dish a fishy taste if overcooked.

   Season with salt and pepper to taste.

   Be careful with the salt because the anchovies and the cheese might be enough for some people, it is for me.

    Lower flame to a low light, just to keep it warm.

    Drain pasta and add to broccoli mixture and toss well.
