Ingredients
(per person)
80 gr of Cavatelli
60 gr of Asparagus
30 gr of Fresh Pecorino
Preparation
1) Bring the water to a boil, I recommend without salt to leave the taste of the pasta unaltered! In the meantime, wash the asparagus or asparagine (smaller asparagus with a more intense flavor).
2) Cook the asparagus for 5-10 minutes depending on their size. Drain the asparagus and cook the pasta in the same water. Meanwhile, blend together the cooked asparagus, diced pecorino, salt and a ladle of cooking water.
3) Drain the pasta in a bowl or pan. Add the asparagus and pecorino cream. Serve on the plate sprinkling with more cream and grated raw pecorino and asparagus flakes. Enjoy this pasta in simplicity!
