Pan-Fried, Not Deep Fried Italian Style? Octopus Karaage

1. 1

   Cut the boiled octopus into bite sized pieces, and pat dry with paper towels.

2. 2

   If you don't dry the pieces well, the coating will slide off

3. 3

   In a plastic bag, add octopus and the katakuriko and shake to coat.

4. 4

   Add oil, butter and garlic in a pan over medium heat, and add the octopus.

5. 5

   Try not to touch the octopus as it fries, or the coating will come off.

6. 6

   When the coating on one side has crisped and browned, turn the pieces over.

7. 7

   When both sides are browned, add the grated cheese.

8. 8

   When the cheese has melted and become crispy, add aonori seaweed powder for fragrance, and it's done

9. 9

   Note 1: The boiled octopus and the grated cheese are salty, so I don't add salt.

10. 10

    Taste, and adjust with more cheese or a little salt.

11. 11

    Note 2: Both octopus and squid spit when heated!

12. 12

    It's not fun at all to burn yourself.

13. 13

    Just cover with a lid if this becomes a problem.
