Creamed Broccoli Rabe

For 5

2 bunches broccoli rabe, bottom steams removed
2 cups cream
Salt and Pepper
Parmiggiano-Reggiano or pecorino (optional)


Bring a pot of salty water to a boil.  Add broccoli rabe and cook for a few
minutes.  This will take some of the bitterness out of the greens.  Drain and
allow to cool just a bit.  Squeeze excess water from the broccoli rabe and rough
chop.  Place in a pan and add cream. Cook on stove top at medium high heat
until cream comes to a boil.  Reduce heat to low and continue cooking, stirring
occasionally, for about 20-30 minutes.  Taste then season with salt and pepper.  
Garnish with shaved parmiggiano or pecorino cheese.
