Method

  1. Bring a large pan of water to the boil, with a splash of oil, then add the pasta. Cook following pack instructions, adding the broccoli for the final 5 mins.
  2. Meanwhile, gently heat the oil in a large pan. Add the onions and sliced garlic, and cook slowly for 2 mins. Add the fennel and cook for a couple more mins, until softened. Flake the sardines into the pan and stir around for a few more mins to break them up.
  3. Tip the pasta and broccoli into the pan with the pine nuts, raisins and lemon juice. Toss together to let the pasta absorb the oil, season well and serve immediately, scattered with lemon zest and chilli flakes.

    This recipe is wonderful! I made it exactly as the recipe states and it was really easy. The flavours work so well and it tastes so fresh with the crunchy fennel. I hadn't tried bucatini before and it was lovely. Will be making again!

    Delicious and a great way to get omega 3 fats in - we used the Fish 4 Ever sardines and left out the raisins and was still tasty. Will definitely make again.

    This was a nice dish with interesting flavour combinations. I personally would probably leave out the raisins next time as I found them a little bit too sweet. But other than that a very easy, quick and tasty midweek supper.
