A friend born in Portugal supplied this simple and
excellent example of Portuguese home-cooking.

Precook 1 kg of octopus, drain and cool Cut it up into
generous chunks. Beat 3 eggs, with a little milk salt
and pepper to taste, and half a bunch of very finely
chopped parsley. Coat the octopus pieces in the egg
mixture and shallow fry in a little olive oil, turning
