Among all types of seafood, in my opinion octopus tentacles look the most intriguing on a plate. I buy octopus tentacles in a small fish shop where they are constantly on sale. They are boiled and chilled and actually ready to eat. We like them grilled with fresh French bread prepared "at once" just after shopping. This time I served them in a more decorative way. I served grilled parsley-garlic octopus tentacles with fresh lettuce and French toast. The salad was excellent and looked beautiful. I recommend it for a special occasion. Maybe it is a great idea for a light dinner on Valentine's Day.


Ingredients (for 2 people)
4 small octopus tentacles
4 fistfuls of mixed lettuce
a few cherry tomatoes
a few black olives
2 tablespoons of small capers or a few big capers
a lemon
marinade
4 tablespoons of olive oil
2 tablespoons of chopped parsley
1 teaspoon of chopped chili pepper
2 cloves of garlic (crushed)
salt and pepper

Did I mention that I love Brussels sprouts? Probably more than once, but I can say it once again. I love them. Recently I convinced my children to eat them. The spicy fried Brussels sprouts with almond flakes were an excellent addition to the meat dish I cooked.


Today I would like to share with you another recipe for a dish with Brussels sprouts. This dish is inspired by Jamie Oliver's show. This time I served fried Brussels sprouts with cold natural yoghurt, fruit and pistachios. It was a surprising combination, but the dish was very tasty. You have to try it.


Ingredients (for 2 people)
0.5kg of Brussels sprouts
2 cloves of garlic
1 tablespoon of olive oil
4-5 tablespoons of Greek yoghurt
200g of red currants
a twig of rosemary
a piece of chili pepper
2 tablespoons of maple syrup
2-3 tablespoons of pistachios

I would like to share with you the recipe for a yummy dinner salad inspired by the most famous French salad – Nicoise. Since I decided that the salad should be for dinner, the ingredients were hot: green beans, hard boiled eggs and salmon. In the original Nicoise salad there is tuna. I added smoked salmon to my dish. Additionally, I fried it in a dry pan and I was surprised – it was excellent. I prepared a yoghurt-horseradish sauce for the salad, because I like fish and green beans with this spicy relish.

 

Ingredients (for 2 people)
0.5kg of green beans
200g of smoked salmon
a fistful of black olives
a fistful of pistachios
4 eggs
4 teaspoons of natural yoghurt
2 big teaspoons of horseradish
salt and pepper
