Hey friends! Today I’m so excited to share with you one of my new favorite dishes – Polvo à Lagareiro. This is a traditional Portuguese grilled octopus dish that is packed with flavor and so fun to make at home.
If you’ve never tried octopus before, I know it can seem a little intimidating. But trust me, once you taste it, you’ll be hooked. Octopus has a mild, slightly sweet flavor and a tender, meaty texture that is just so delicious.
One of the things I love about this dish is how simple it is to make. All you need is some fresh octopus, potatoes, garlic, olive oil, and a few other basic ingredients. The key to getting the octopus tender and flavorful is to boil it first with some herbs and spices before grilling it.
Once the octopus is cooked, it’s time to grill it up! This is where the magic happens. The high heat of the grill gives the octopus a beautiful char and smoky flavor that is just out of this world.
To serve, simply plate up the grilled octopus with some roasted potatoes and a drizzle of olive oil. It’s the perfect dish for a special occasion or just a cozy night in.
So if you’re ready to try something new and delicious, let’s dive into this Polvo à Lagareiro recipe together. I promise you won’t be disappointed!
