The summer is almost around the corner. By this season of the year salads get a special place on the Iberian diets due to the bikini operation or due to the fact that with the hot weather the best you can have is a fresh salad...
Today I bring you a typical spring or summer starter, an Octopus salad:
you will need:
- Octopus
- Tomato
- Shallot
- parsley or coriander
- onion
- clove
- Laurel
- Extra virgin olive oil
- vinegar or lime juice
- salt
You can use pre-cooked octopus, but if you look real flavour you should boil it by yourself. For an 1,5 kg Octopus: In a pan add 9 glasses of water and one of red wine. Add an onion cut in two halves, in each half put two cloves and a laurel leaf and a little bit of salt , and let it cook for about 40 minutes and let it cool
Chop the tomatoes, the shallot, the octopus and finely chop the parsley. mix everything and season with vinaigrette, (3 parts of extra virgin olive oil and 1 of vinegar or lime juice)
Enjoy it!
