Looks like
broccoli
the same vegetable, used as an uncountable noun
⚠️ The trap
The word is the same but usage differs. In Italian 'broccoli' is the plural form; the singular is 'broccolo'. In English it is used as an uncountable noun. Also, Italians dress broccoli with garlic and olive oil — not cheese sauce!
To say "the same vegetable, used as an uncountable noun" in Italian:
broccolo (singular) / broccoli (plural)
"broccoli" in English means:
broccoli (same vegetable, but always plural in Italian)
Example
"I broccoli sono cotti al vapore."
"The broccoli is steamed."
