Instructions

Prepare the broccoli: Wash and separate the bouquets. Peel and remove the fibrous part of the stems and cut them into small pieces. Add them to boiling water for 3–4 min, drain, and keep warm.
Cook pasta as directed on the package.
In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the flour and cook for 2 minutes while stirring. Gradually add milk while whisking. Bring to a boil, then add the grated cheese while stirring until smooth.
Add the broccoli and nutmeg to cheese mixture. Salt and pepper to your taste. You can also extend the sauce with a few spoonfuls of pasta cooking water.
Pour the drained pasta into the saucepan with the broccoli and cheese. Mix well.
Sprinkle pasta with parmesan cheese and serve.
