Jose Gourmet, Octopus in Olive Oil and Garlic 120g

This delicacy is prepared with fine olive oil and garlic to enhance its aroma and flavour. Low in calories and rich in vitamin B12.

‘Octopuses have three hearts, but this one wanted more! Perhaps because it wanted to hear the heart beating to the sound of its favourite song. So, it swapped some of its legs for some hearts. How many? Just do the maths!’

Boil small new potatoes. In a frying pan, pour 2 dl olive oil from the tins, 8 garlic cloves (smashed with skin), 2 bay leaves, 1 sprig of rosemary, 3 sprigs of thyme and parsley. Place the octopus in the pan, cover and cook gently, turning occasionally, until golden brown in colour on both sides.
