Spiced Octopus in Olive oil
The octopus is a delicious mollusc. Its consistency and soft texture make it a unique delicacy, unparalleled. What we propose is a spicy version of our octopus caught in the Atlantic Ocean. This irresistible combination with piri piri is so appealing that you will want to try this delicacy at every sunset.
One day, a certain octopus complained about his life. Although he belonged to a biologically diversified family, he had been born an octopus and that’s how he lived. That was it, nothing else to be but an octopus. He needed to spice up his days, even if it meant sprinkling some magic dust to stir that monotony. Apparently, someone indulged him.
