Recipe: Octopus salad, peanut butter and strawberries

Ingredients
Peanut butter
Strawberries
Vintage tomatoes
Shallots
Smoked almonds
Red Chilli
Peashoots
Micro herbs
Chives
Olive oil
Octopus

Method
Place the peanut butter and smoked almonds into a blender

Blitz until a smooth paste is achieved, add the olive oil, just enough to loosen the paste, remove from the blender and add chopped chives, spoon the mix onto the service dish

Cut the tomatoes and add them on top of the almond paste, chop the strawberries and do the same.

Cut the octapus and fry in a hot pan, this takes a very short period of time so be carefull not to over cook as it will go tough.

Add the octopus to the dish, sprinkle over some whole smoked almonds and add some fresh chopped red chilli also.

Dress the peashoots and micro herbs and place on top of the salad.
