Ingredients for Baby Octopus Karaage

Preparation

Directions for Baby Octopus Karaage

1. Marinate the Octopus

In a bowl, combine soy sauce, mirin, grated ginger, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Add the baby octopus and marinate for at least 30 minutes.

2. Prepare the Yuzu Aioli

In a separate bowl, mix mayonnaise with yuzu juice. Stir well until combined and set aside.

3. Coat the Octopus

In a shallow dish, combine cornstarch and all-purpose flour. Remove the octopus from the marinade and coat each piece in the flour mixture.

4. Fry the Octopus

Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet or fryer over medium-high heat. Fry the coated octopus in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes. Drain on paper towels.

5. Serve

Serve the fried baby octopus with a side of yuzu aioli and sprinkle with masago on top.
