Polvo Frito (Fried Octopus)
Servings: 3
Ingredients:
A friend born in Portugal supplied this simple and excellent example
of Portuguese home-cooking.
Precook 1 kg of octopus, drain and cool. Cut it up into generous
chunks. Beat 3 eggs, with a little milk salt and pepper to taste, and
half a bunch of very finely chopped parsley. Coat the octopus pieces
in the egg mixture and shallow fry in a little olive oil, turning
them until they are golden.
Serve.
Makes 3 or 4 servings.
