This meze-style octopus salad is all about tenderness, a little vinegar and the freshness of raw vegetables stirred through at the end.

Serves: 6 people

Preparation time: 50 min

Ingredients

  • Octopus – 1 medium
  • Dill – 1-2 pinches
  • Olive oil – 1/3 cup
  • Red onion – 1 large
  • Oregano – 2-3 pinches
  • Pepper – 1-2 pinches
  • Green pepper – 1 medium
  • Salt – 2-3 pinches
  • Tomatoes – 2 medium
  • Red wine vinegar – 1-2 tbsp

Method

Boil the octopus for 35 to 45 minutes, depending on its size, until tender. Cool it under cold water, remove the skin and clean it well, then cut it into 2 cm pieces. Finely chop the onion, pepper and tomatoes and combine them with the octopus, dill, oregano, olive oil and vinegar. Chill the salad briefly before serving so it becomes nicely marinated.
