Grilled Octopus and Bean Salad

Method

Preparation and Cooking

1

Prepare the Octopus

In a large pot, boil water and add the octopus. Cook for about 45 minutes or until tender. Remove from pot and let it cool.

2

Grill the Octopus

Once cooled, cut the octopus into manageable pieces. Brush with olive oil, season with salt and pepper. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat and grill the octopus for about 4-5 minutes on each side until charred.

3

Prepare the Bean Salad

In a large bowl, combine the cannellini beans, butter beans, field peas, and pink eye peas. Finely chop the garlic and add it to the beans along with lemon juice, remaining olive oil, and fresh herbs. Toss to combine.

4

Assemble the Dish

Place the bean salad on a serving plate, top with grilled octopus, and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
