Ann's Seafood

1/2 kilo baby octupus,
2 tubes calamari, cleaned
1/2 kilo tiger or pacific prawns, cooked and peeled
4 tbsp. ketcap manis
1 tbsp worcestershire sauce
1/3 c. soy sauce (i like using Kikkoman)
2 tbsp. garlic sauce

Peter said, I make the best octupus. I don't know how others do it but this is how I cook them beautifully. First, I boil 2 liters of water, while waiting, sliced the calamari tube into a 1cm thick, then cut the baby octupus head and take the eyes off, then halve the tentacles. put together the last four ingredients into a large mixing bowl, mix well then add the prawns in ths marinade. meanwhile, pour boiling water into a large sauce pan, turn the stove on high for 2 minutesthen when you see the water water continously, add the octupus and calamari rings then turn down the heat halfway to make sure it continue to boil, simmer for 10 to 12 mins until the contents are tender but not too cook, drain then add the octupus and calamari into the marinade, stand for half an hour.

Heat a dash of vegetable oil in a non-stick wok. Cook the mixed seafood little by little so it won't get watery and don't end up like a stew (don't include the marinade). Cook about 6 minutes for each batch hten put it otgether when all is finished. Serve on top of boiled rice or on top of cooked hokkien noodles. Add some snow peas and bean sprouts on the last minute (optional). Peter has always been very proud of this dish of mine. I'm proud to have come up of this recipe as well.
