Octopus in the oven

I got this recipe from Aunt Iva, and so far I have never fouled with it.

Preparation steps

The octopus should be frozen for at least one day after catching / buying.
Put the defrosted octopus in a paddle, pour a glass of water over it and cook for 15 minutes. (not all must be covered with water)
While the hoba bean is cooking you prepare the vegetables to bake with it. I put about twice as much as an octopus because it shrinks a lot when baked. If you’re for the classics, bake only potatoes with onions and garlic cloves.
Cut everything nicely into equal pieces, tear a leaf of two laurels and rosemary, then season to taste and pour olive oil.
Now take out the octopus, put it on the vegetables and pour over the olive oil.
Chop the ingredients for the mixture into small pieces, mix them all together and sprinkle with octopus.
Put everything revealed in the oven at 180 C for an hour to an hour and a half. Pour white wine halfway through baking. Make sure it is baked with a fork. It should pass easily.

Serving

My vegetable mix is always different depending on the seasonal ingredients, and it turns out interesting every time. I always freeze the octopus before cooking, if anyone knows how to turn out soft without it, feel free to let me know! You can also use the mixture to roast squid and other mussels.

In culinary terms, the light Mediterranean and the invigorating continent can go very well together. Before you put the squid in the oven, add the pieces of prosciutto to them, then arrange them on a plate topped with the roasting juice.
