Cooking Instructions

1. Prepare the Pasta

In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the trottole pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside, reserving some pasta water.

2. Sauté the Leeks

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced leeks and sauté until softened and lightly golden, about 5-7 minutes.

3. Combine Ingredients

Stir in the squid ink and Calabrian chili paste into the skillet with the leeks. Mix well to combine and cook for another 2 minutes.

4. Toss the Pasta

Add the cooked trottole to the skillet, tossing to coat the pasta in the sauce. If the mixture seems dry, add a splash of reserved pasta water.

5. Add the Uni

Remove from heat and gently fold in the sea urchin (uni) and chopped parsley. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

6. Serve

Plate the pasta and garnish with additional parsley if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
