Try this delicious dish with our special Gordal olives. An original and tasty dish that will surprise everyone.

INGREDIENTS

  • 1/2 cup of queen olives, pitted and finely chopped
  • 6/8 octopus, braised and gelatinous skin cleaned
  • 1 bunch of parlsey, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves of garlic, finely minced or grated on a microplane
  • 1 teaspoon of cumin seed, toasted & ground
  • Extra virgin olive oil
  • Salt to taste
  • Fresh lemon wedges or lemon juice
  • Hot paprika for finishing

STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped parsley, olives, garlic and cumin with enough olive oil to thoroughly coat everything and create a thick sauce consistency. If it’s too thick, like a paste, just whisk in a little bit more extra virgin olive oil. Until you achieve the right consistency.

Step 2

Taste before adding any salt, because it may not need it depending on how briny your olives are.

Step 3

Grill the octopus on the plancha (or grill, if you prefer), and plate. Squeeze lemon over the octopus before draping with the salsa verde. Dust with a touch of paprika if you like and it’s ready to eat.
