Octopus is a popular food in Mediterranean
                    cuisine, being an important source of protein.
                      It is highly appreciated for its unique and
                                 incomparable taste.

                                   INGREDIENTS:

                                      50 g butter
                                 1Kg of fresh octopus
                                  6-7 cloves of garlic
                                   1 bunch parsley
                                 1 glass of white wine
                                   salt and pepper

                                  PREPARATION:

                    Peel the octopus and cut it into pieces. Put the
                     meat in a pot of boiling water and leave it on
                   the fire for 45-50 minutes. Remove the octopus
                          and, after it has cooled down a bit,
                     clean the skin. In a pan, put the butter and,
                   when it has melted, add the octopus, garlic and
                      wine and cook until the meat turns golden.
                    After the wine has evaporated, add the finely
                          chopped parsley, salt and pepper.
                         The octopus must be served immediately.
