Preparation

Preparation

1. Prepare the Baby Octopus

Rinse the baby octopus under cold running water to remove any sand or impurities. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and add the octopus. Cook for 3-5 minutes until tender. Remove from heat and let it cool.

2. Chop the Vegetables

While the octopus is cooling, chop the cherry tomatoes in half, dice the cucumber, finely slice the red onion, and chop the parsley. Place all the chopped vegetables in a large mixing bowl.

Assembly

3. Combine Ingredients

Once the octopus has cooled, cut it into bite-sized pieces and add it to the bowl with the chopped vegetables.

4. Make the Dressing

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and red chili flakes until well combined.

5. Dress the Salad

Pour the dressing over the salad and gently toss everything together until the ingredients are evenly coated with the dressing.

Serving

6. Serve the Salad

Transfer the salad to a serving platter or individual bowls. Garnish with additional parsley if desired, and serve immediately.
