GRILLED OCTOPUS WITH KOREAN BARBECUE SAUCE AND BABY BOK ...



Grilled Octopus with Korean Barbecue Sauce and Baby Bok ... image

If you've ever ordered a delightfully meaty and tender, charred octopus dish at a restaurant and immediately thought to yourself, "Wow, I wish I could make this kind of thing at home," well—you can. And this recipe is going to light the way. Whether you're looking to dazzle your company at your next dinner party or wanting to make something extra special for a date night in, this grilled octopus dish is definitely worth stepping out of your cooking comfort zone for. As intimidating as it may seem, preparing octopus at home is easier than you'd think. Octopus can be found at specialty grocery stores (such as Whole Foods), fish markets, and Asian or international markets. The key to preparing this wow-worthy seafood at home is giving the meat a preliminary cook (no matter how you intend to proceed in preparing it) in order to tenderize the meat. In this recipe, we first simmer the octopus in a flavorful, aromatic-filled cooking liquid and finish then finish the cooking on the grill to develop bold, caramelized flavor and crispy char. We especially love how this preparation for octopus is so rich in flavor, but not at all heavy. Served alongside a vibrant Baby Bok Choy Slaw, this dish is as elegant as it is comforting.

Total Time 2 hours 0 minutes

Yield Serves 2-4

Number Of Ingredients 26

1 (3- to 5-lb) octopus, cleaned (beak and ink sack removed)
8 cups water, or more if necessary to cover octopus
1 (2-inch) piece fresh ginger, cut into ½-inch pieces
1 stalk lemongrass, halved lengthwise and cut into 3-inch pieces
1 small yellow onion, halved
1 lime, halved
1 serrano pepper, halved
½ cup soy sauce
1?½ teaspoons whole coriander
1 teaspoon whole peppercorns
1 teaspoon whole allspice
3 star anise pods
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 stalk lemongrass, finely chopped
½ cup hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons chili garlic sauce
2 tablespoons honey
1?½ tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
½ teaspoon Chinese five spice
¼ cup water to thin, if desired
Baby Bok Choy Slaw

Steps:

  • To prepare the octopus, use kitchen sheers or a sharp knife to separate the tentacles from the head by cutting just above the area where the legs come together (above the beak). At this point, you can divide the tentacles or leave whole.
  • Combine water and all remaining cooking liquid ingredients in a large, enamel Dutch oven and bring to a boil. Add octopus to pan and simmer for 45-60 minutes (15-20 minutes per pound of octopus), until very tender when pierced with knife.
  • Turn off heat and, keeping the octopus submerged; let come to room temperature.
  • Remove octopus from the liquid. With a damp paper towel, wipe away skin and peel away the gelatinous, fatty layer from the meat. Chill meat until ready to use (the octopus can be prepped up to 3 days ahead).
  • To prepare the barbecue sauce, heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic, lemongrass, and ginger to pan; sauté until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the remaining ingredients and stir to combine; simmer for 5 minutes. Add water if needed to thin sauce to desired consistency.
  • To grill the octopus, heat a well-oiled grill to medium-high to high heat. Once hot, place tentacles on the grill. Using a brush, baste tentacles with the barbecue sauce 2-3 times per side. Continue to flip and rotate the meat until well-charred and glazed, 8-10 minutes total. Serve with remaining sauce and Baby Bok Choy Slaw. 

ONION OCTOPUS RECIPE - SIMPLE CHINESE FOOD



Onion octopus recipe - Simple Chinese Food image

When I bought the octopus, I remembered that I saw the white radish octopus dish in a magazine, and I wanted to try it and make it. Helplessly, there is no white radish ready at home, so I gradually changed the white radish to onion. Onions are paired with octopus. The dish I tried for the first time is very good in terms of taste, nutrition and efficacy.
