Do you remember the octopus soup rice What did we prepare the other day? Well, since I didn't spend all the octopus we decided to take it one night with a salsa very very rich: mayonnaise flavored with mojo picón.

In our case, we chose to brown the octopus, once cooked, at the the griddle. If you had the chance to do it at ember, the taste is really special. If not, put a little oil in the pan and when it is smoking, brown the octopus for 1 minute on each side. If we leave it for a long time, it will gradually dry out and become a little harder.

Ingredients

Octopus:

  • 500 g of octopus already cooked and tender (two legs approx.)
  • olive oil
  • salt flakes (optional)

Mayonnaise:

  • 1 egg
  • 200 g mild olive oil
  • 1 dash of vinegar

Mojo picon:

  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • 1 cayenne (or 1/2 if it's too big or you don't like it too spicy)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • a pinch of salt
  • 1 dash of vinegar
  • 75 g of extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon paprika sweet
  • 1 handful of bread crumbs from the day before

Preparation

  1. We weigh the oil in a jar and reserve it.

  2. We put the egg at room temperature, a pinch of salt and a splash of vinegar in the glass and program speed 4, no time.

  3. With the machine running and the beaker on, we are pouring the oil on the lid. It will fall like a thread into the glass and it will emulsify.

  4. We withdraw and reserve.

  5. Without washing the glass, add the peeled garlic and the bread crumb to the glass and crush 5 seconds, speed 5.

  6. Add the chilli and cumin and blend 20 seconds, speed 7.

  7. Add the salt, oil, vinegar and paprika and mix 30 seconds, speed 5. Then we program 2 minutes, progressive speed 5-7-10.

  8. We taste and rectify with salt or vinegar.

  9. We add the mayonnaise that we had reserved to our sauce and mix 10 seconds, speed 2.

  10. When we have the sauce ready, it is time to make the octopus. Heat oil in a frying pan a lot until it is steaming and brown the octopus on both sides (1 min. Per side approx.).

  11. We serve the octopus on a plate, with a drizzle of olive oil, a few flakes of salt and the mojo picón mayonnaise sauce.

Notes

With these amounts you will have octopus for about 4-6 people (as a starter or a snack). It is possible that there is a sauce over, so we can use it another day accompanying some cooked potatoes, vegetables, chicken or fish nuggets.
