200 g of octopus
2 avocado
50 g parsley
20 g of mint
1 lemon
20 g pitted black olives

Method

For the octopus
Clean the octopus by removing the beak and the eyes, then turn the head upside down to remove the sand residues. Fill the pressure cooker with water and dip the clean octopus in it and close it. When the pot starts to whistle count 20 minutes.
Once the cooking time is over, open the pan and allow it to open, but leave the octopus immersed for at least another 10 minutes.
Cut the octopus into small pieces and sauté in a pan over high heat with a little oil until it becomes crisp.

For the avocado
Take the ripe avocado, cut it in half and remove the stone.
Take half of the lawyer, cut it and season with lemon, oil, salt and pepper. Then whisk it and place the cream in the fridge well covered with plastic wrap.
Cut the other half into thin slices and season with lemon, oil, salt and pepper. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve.

To serve
Chop the parsley and mint very finely.
Put a spoonful of avocado cream on the plate, place a few pieces of octopus on top, sprinkle with chopped parsley and spices. Next, arrange the avocado slices and finish the dish with half-cut Taggiasca olives. Serve immediately with a drizzle of oil and grated lemon rind at the time.
