Ingredients
- one octopus 1.2-1.5kg
- 1-carrot
- 1 glass of white wine vinegar
- fresh parsley
- salt
For dressing
- 1-lemon
- Olive oil, chilly pepper, garlic, fresh parsley,
- salt, pepper
Directions
- We put to boil the peeled and washed octopus in the salted boiling water, as we explained in previous octopus recipes. First, we dip in the octopus legs part and take out from the boiling water several times until it gathers properly.
- Once we put the full octopus in the pot, we also add the white vinegar and spices. Let it cook for 45 minutes. We control it with a fork because the cooking time depends on the size of the octopus.
- Let it cool in its boiling water. We take it out and cut it into small pieces.
- Add salt, black pepper, sliced garlic, sliced chili pepper, lemon, and finely chopped fresh parsley. We cut half of the lemon into slices, squeeze the rest, and we will use its juice in the marinade.
- We mix it well and cover the salad bowl. We let it in the fridge to rest for a few hours before serving it. You can also cook it one day before to eat it.
Bon Appetit!
