    crostini di patate con polipo e peperoni

    Ieri sera, a casa di Nadia, abbiamo cucinato TANTO pesce! Abbiamo cominciato con Crostini di patate con insalata di polipo.

    Ingredienti (4 persone) :

    3 patate

    olio per friggere

    1 polipo ( circa 400 gr.)

    sale

    aglio

    limone

    rucola

    arancia

    peperone rosso

    peperoncino

    Facciamo bollire in acqua le patate ( con la buccia) e portiamole a metà cottura. Quando sono cotte tagliamole a fette alte circa 1 cm e lasciamole freddare. Facciamo bollire il polipo in abbondante acqua ( con un pizzico di sale) per circa 40 minuti. Quando è tenero ( testiamolo con una forchetta) scoliamo e tagliamo a pezzetti piccoli piccoli. A questo punto condiamolo con il succo di mezza arancia e di mezzo liomne, l’aglio passato allo schiaccia aglio, la rucola, aggiustiamo di sale e peperoncino. Friggiamo le fette di patate in olio bollente fino alla doratura. Serviamo l’insalata di polipo sopra alle fette di patate.
