Ingredients
- 1 cup cooked octopus cutinto small pieces
- 1 cup red bell pepper diced
- 1 can baby corn cut into 1" pieces
- 1 green onion finely chopped
- 1/2 cup cucumber chopped
Recipe Method
Optional: (I didn't add these things, but if I had them, I probably would)
chopped red radish
cilantro
etc...
I mixed the dressing free style so I don't have exact measurements.
I used a small dash of avocado oil and large dash of sunflower seed oil, although using only olive oil would work just as well
Juice of a couple of lemons AND a couple of limes
1 teaspoon each of ground oregano and ground cumin
1 or 2 hot chilies
1 clove of garlic
1- Blend all of the dressing ingredients in a food processor, and combine all salad ingredients with the dressing in a bowl. The spicy sour taste of the dressing, combined with the sweetness of the vegetables and octopus made it totally work.
