Octopus with vinegar or grilled





OCTOPUS WITH VINEGAR OR GRILLED
Ingredients
1 whole octopus over 1.5k or 1.5 k octopus tentacles
2 tablespoons vinegar or a little more
60 g. olive oil
Salt to taste
Oregano

How to do it
When you cook the octopus, to be soft, it should be well beaten.
When you buy fresh octopus, you do not know if it is sufficiently beaten.
That’s why you must put it in the freezer and leave it there for one night.
The next day thaw  frosen octopus and use it.
Wash thoroughly octopus.
Put the octopus in a pot and place it over very low heat.
If the maximum of the cooker is 6, put it on display 2.
You should not put any fluid in the pot.
The octopus slowly expels its fluids.
Let the octopus boil for two hours or more, until tender.
Keep the broth of octopus because you'll need it later.
Divide the boiled octopus in the middle. Do the first half with vinegar and put the rest to cook on the grill. 

Octopus with vinegar
Take half of the boiled octopus and cut it in small pieces.
Put the pieces in a bowl and pour octopus broth over them, until they are covered.
Add oregano, salt, oil and vinegar until you achieve the taste you want.

Grilled octopus
Separate the remaining four tentacles from each other.
Put the tentacles in a bowl. Add salt, oil, vinegar and oregano and stir.
All the tentacles should be smeared with oil.
Put the tentacles on the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes.
Turn on the other side and cook for another 4 minutes.
The octopus is already cooked and softened so it does not need a lot of cooking.
Apart from the grill you can bake octopus and in the oven grill.
Put the octopus in a shallow pan and blace it below the grill.
Bake at 250 degrees Celsius for a few minutes.
When octopus is ready its color becomes a little darker.
             Turn it over and bake for 3 more minutes.
