SAFFRON AND OCTOPUS CAPRICCIO RISOTTO
     
INGREDIENTS FOR 4 PEOPLE
 

Method:


Riso Carnaroli 300 g
100g butter, 30g chopped shallot, 1 glass white wine, 0,7l hot chicken stock, 0,4l Fume di pesce, 1 saffron service cup, 100g cream, 1kg fresh octopus, 100g extra virgin olive oil, 100g carrots, 100g leeks, 100g celery, 2 garlic cloves, 1 small onion, 2 glass white wine, 0,2l hot chicken stock



  To make the capriccio: Cook the octopus in a saucepan with 100g of extra virgin olive oil, add all chopped vegetables, the onion and garlic. Pour in the two glasses of white wine and the 0,2l of stock, cover and cook for 50/60 minutes at medium heat. Remove octopus from its own liquid, peel and place in a tureen covered in wrapping film. Press and leave it in the fridge for 6 hours. To make the risotto: Sauté the shallot in 70g of butter and saffron in a heavy bottomed saucepan, add the rice and fry well until transparent. Pour in the wine and simmer until it has evaporated. Add a ladleful of the hot stock and the hot fumetti. As the stock is absorbed add more stock when necessary. Continue in this way for about 16 minutes. Remove the risotto from heat and stir in butter and cream. Serve the risotto in four dishes and place on top thinly cut pieces of octopus.
