Ingredients:
1 kg octopus, washed

4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, extra for drizzling
3 cloves garlic, crushed
2 tsp red chilli flakes
1 red chilli
5 anchovy fillets
1/3 cup capers, drained
1 Italian country bread, sliced and toasted
1 bunch fresh flat-leaf parsley, leaves picked and chopped
Maldon salt, QB
In a pot, heat up olive oil. Add the anchovies, garlic, chilli flakes, and capers and stir. Then, add the octopus, red chilli, and passata. Bring the sauce to a light boil and then reduce to medium-low and cook for approx. 4 hours, stirring occasionally. Remove octopus from the pot and chop it into pieces and put back into the sauce.
Toast bread in a pan and lightly drizzle the bread with olive oil on both sides. Remove from the pan once crisp and golden.
On each slice of bread, add a layer of the ragù sauce and parsley. Add the octopus and finish with a sprinkle of maldon salt. Enjoy!
