Octopus Salad

Lunchtime! Octopus tentacles take a little preparation, but not much ...

Octopus Salad

... the previous evening, marinate the tentacles in olive oil, white wine vinegar, lemon juice, salt and pepper; an hour will do. Then, in a skillet or on a grill, just flash them through on a hot hot hot heat!

Slice on the bias and allow to cool ...

Inspired by simple Galician cuisine, the salad is simply lettuce, tomato, olives, soft sheep cheese, hard goat cheese, salad cream, the octopus and then some capers and black pepper.

Smashing salad! Now, back to work ...
