Cook Islands Curried Octopus in Coconut Sauce

Ingredients:

1 whole fresh octopus

Coconut cream

Onion

Curry powder

Salt and pepper

Cooking Instructions:

Clean octopus removing ink sac and head. Place whole octopus in a pot over medium heat, (the water from the octopus will provide liquid for cooking, wash hands after handling as some people get a rash from the octopus). Simmer until tender. Dispose of the cooking water and cut the tentacles into bite size pieces. In a saucepan heat the coconut cream with the seasonings and onions and add the octopus pieces to re-heat through. Serve warm.
