Procedure

To prepare the calamarata with crispy and buttered buffalo meat, we have to start by preparing the octopus. Put on the fire a large enough pot full of water and a laurel leaf and bring it to boil then saliamola and dip for 3-4 times the tentacles of the octopus and then immerse it completely. We lower the flame to a minimum and let it bake 30-40 ‘ depending on the size. After the cooking time, togliamolo from the water and Poggiamolo on a chopping board.

We cut the tentacles into pieces about 3-4 cm long so let’s put them aside. In a sauté we put a tablespoon of oil and a clove of garlic crushed. Let’s brown then add the tentacles and let them jump for 5 ‘ and anyway until they are crispy.

When they have reached the desired consistency, togliamoli from the sauté and let’s put them aside. In the same frying pan, put the tomatoes cut in half, Saliamoli, Pepiamoli and let them wither slightly then add two ladles of cooking water of the octopus.
