Ingredients
  • 10 cloves of brown garlic
  • 500 grams of cooked octopus leg
  • 100 grams of flour
  • Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • Sal
Step by step
  1. We peel the cloves of chestnut garlic and slice them thinly.

  2. We slice the octopus leg into slices about a finger thick.

  3. We put the flour in a deep plate, or in a bowl, and flour the octopus slices and the garlic slices on both sides.

  4. In a saucepan over medium heat, add a good splash of oil.

  5. When the oil is hot, fry the garlic slices and then the octopus slices until golden brown. Place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb the excess oil.

  6. FINISHED DISH:

    On a flat plate, we place the octopus slices in the center of the plate and in a straight line.

  7. On top, we drop the garlic slices, and lightly season the whole thing.

The advice of

– In this case we have used a pre-cooked octopus leg to save time, but we can also cook the octopus ourselves at home.
– The garlic slices should turn golden brown, but not burnt, as they can develop a bitter taste and spoil our preparation.
– We can accompany the dish with a sauce such as a light aioli, a romesco sauce, a mango chutney…

Don't miss a thing!
