INGREDIENTS for 2 people

 

-2 medium octopuses 300 g of cherry tomatoes (or datterini)

⁃ parsley stalks gb

⁃ minimum 2kg of bread (for the mopping up)

PROCEDURE:

In a terracotta pan (you can also use a normal pot), sauté the garlic, oil, chili pepper, and parsley stalks for about 2 minutes over medium-low heat.

Remove any odors and add the previously cleaned octopus.

Cover with the lid and let it cook for 20/30 minutes (the water they release should almost dry up)

Add the cherry tomatoes, olives, capers and cover again with the lid.

Let it cook for at least 10-15 minutes. Remove the lid and let the sauce thicken.

And now all you have to do is prepare 2 kg of bread for the “scarpetta” and enjoy it with me
