My friend, an expert in exotic cuisine and a gourmet, considers the culinary recipe for an exotic octopus on an electric grill to be the most exquisite of those that can be prepared with a quick hand. Octopus meat will appeal to connoisseurs of marine tropical cuisine. If you like mussels, oysters and squid, then this food will be to your taste. This culinary recipe will require from the cook endurance and accuracy. It can be a pleasant entertainment for a friendly company gathered to chat on a cold winter evening. After all, shish kebab and other grilled dishes are so popular in the summer, and thanks to the electric grill in the cold season, you will also not have to deny yourself this exquisite pleasure.

Octopus meat is thoroughly washed under running water and scalded several times with boiling water. Then I cut it into pieces about 8 cm long; 1 cm thick and 1.5 cm wide. It is desirable that the pieces are the same, then they will be fried at the same time. I fill a large saucepan or jar with chopped meat, into which I then pour the marinade. To make the marinade, I thoroughly mix soy sauce, olive oil, sugar, sesame seeds, garlic passed through a garlic press, finely chopped onion and black pepper. In 40 minutes, the octopus meat is completely marinated. It makes no sense to stand longer, it will not only not benefit the taste of the dish, but it can worsen it. Then the pieces of meat are laid out on the grill of a preheated electric grill and fried until ready. It is difficult to specify the exact time, it depends on the model of the grill and on the room temperature and on the hardness of the meat itself. If there is no electric grill in the household, it is not a problem. Almost every modern microwave oven has a grill. While the exotic octopus is fried on an electric grill, you can eat cold snacks and talk with friends. When the food is ready, pieces of octopus meat can be put on lettuce leaves, you can decorate it differently or just eat it without any decorations.
