Greek

  • 2 bay leaves
  • ​2 tbs balsamic vinegar
  • pepper

  1. Caramelize shallots in very hot oil, 3-4 minutes
  2. Saute garlic and stir in octopus, 4-5 minutes
  3. Add olives, balsamic, chili, flakes, honey, and pepper
  4. Stir to combine and lower heat

Don't add extra liquid or salt to octopus.  I added mushrooms because it sounds nice.
