Fresh, Cornish Octopus - 500g

Caught off the British coast and in plentiful supply, octopus is not just for holidays abroad. It takes a bit of careful cooking but, in my experience, the Greek method is pretty good (see below for more info). 500g is enough for two people as a main course. This product may arrive frozen. It should be defrosted naturally in the fridge and cooked before eating.

Heat a heavy based pan. Add olive oil. Add the Octopus and stew for an hour. The Octopus will produce enough water to braise it to perfection.
