This is a Croatian dish, specifically from the coastal region of Dalmatia. It starts with a simple dressing mix of:
- Olive oil
- Garlic
- Parsley
- S+P
- Cherry Tomatoes
- Olives and/or capers
- Vinegar (I used balsamic vinegar)
- Lemon Juice
It then gets mixed with cooked octopus (I used the frozen cooked squid tentacles and threw in some mussels as well), and also boiled golden potatoes cut into chunks.
- Octopus or squid (cooked)
- Golden potatoes
- Mussels not standard but optional
Not traditional, but I also topped it with:
- Pimiento
Banana peppers may added as well, and again; mussels are not the standard
Other common ingredients include:
- Bay leaf
- Onions
