Orecchiette with Cime di Rapa is a staple Puglian dish made using turnip greens and the famous Puglian Orecchiette. As turnip greens are harder to find in the UK, this can be using Tenderstem Broccoli instead. The origin of this pasta is not certain but one imaginative idea is that their shape derives from the roofs of the local Trulli. If you cannot find Orecchiette, this works just as well with 'dischi volanti' or similar shaped pasta.
