Method

Preparation of Seafood

  1. 1

    Prepare Scallops

    Rinse the scallops under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel. Season lightly with salt and pepper.

  2. 2

    Prepare Shrimp

    In a bowl, combine the tempura batter mix with ice-cold water until smooth. Dip the shrimp into the batter and coat evenly.

  3. 3

    Prepare Octopus

    If not already cooked, boil the octopus in salted water until tender, about 45 minutes. Slice thinly once cooled.

  4. 4

    Prepare Salmon Spread

    In a bowl, mix the flaked salmon with mayonnaise, lemon juice, and minced garlic until well combined.

Cooking Seafood

  1. 5

    Fry Shrimp

    Heat the cooking oil in a deep pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the battered shrimp. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  2. 6

    Cook Scallops

    In another pan, heat a small amount of oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the seasoned scallops and sear for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from heat.

Assembly

  1. 7

    Assemble Platter

    On a large platter, arrange the fried shrimp, seared scallops, sliced octopus, and salmon spread. Serve with focaccia bread on the side and lemon aioli for dipping.
