Ingredients
Instructions
  1. 1

    To prepare the pasta with asparagus, octopus and burrata, first cook the octopus: bring a pot of water to a boil, then add the red wine 1, the bay leaf 2 and the pepper. Dip the octopus 3 times, holding it by the head: in this way the tentacles will curl 3.

  2. 2

    Then completely immerse the octopus in the boiling water 4, cover with the lid 5 and cook for 30-40 minutes. In the meantime, take care of the asparagus: peel the stem and cut it into pieces, leaving the tips whole 6.

  3. 3

    Heat a generous drizzle of oil with a clove of garlic, then add the asparagus stalks 7, salt 8 and pour a finger of hot water 9.

  4. 4

    Cook over high heat for about ten minutes 10. Once cooked, transfer the asparagus to a jar 11 and blend with an immersion blender to reduce it to a cream 12.

  5. 5

    In the same pan, sauté the asparagus tips with a drizzle of oil 13 and a pinch of salt; they should still be crunchy 14. At this point the octopus will be ready, so drain it and transfer it to a cutting board. Separate the tentacles from the rest of the body 15, which you will cut into pieces.

  6. 6

    Roast the octopus in pieces in another pan with a drizzle of oil 16 until it forms a nice crust 17, then cut it into pieces 18.

  7. 7

    Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and add both the orecchiette 19 and the fricelli 20. Meanwhile, pour the asparagus cream and the octopus into the pan, keeping a few pieces aside for decoration 21.

  8. 8

    Also add almost all the asparagus tips 22 and mix. Drain the pasta al dente and transfer it to the pan 23, adding a ladle of cooking water 24.

  9. 9

    Stir the pasta to blend it well with the sauce 25, then plate. Take the heart of the burrata 26 and add it to each plate 27.

  10. 10

    Complete with the pieces of octopus 28 and the asparagus tips set aside 29. Your pasta with asparagus, octopus and burrata is ready to be served 30!
