Instructions
- If pre-cooked was not available, don't worry, I'll explain how to cook it.
- Place the octopus inside the Instant Pot® without water, cook for 18-20 Minutes per
2 lb (1 Kg) . Don't worry about not adding water to the pot, the octopus will release its own "juices". Once the time is up, open the pot and try a tentacle. Cook another 5 Minutes if needed. - Once the octopus is cooked, cut it, keeping only the tentacles.
- On the Instant Vortex panel, press Air Fry, set the time to 10 Minutes, and the temperature to 395°F (200°C). Press Start.
- Once Add Food appears on the display, add the tentacles to the rack and sprinkle with avocado oil, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Close tray and let cook.
- When Turn Food appears on the display, turn the tentacles over.
- Meanwhile, in a blender add all the ingredients of the aguachile. Blend until a smooth and homogeneous texture is obtained. Taste and adjust the flavor to taste. (Chill for a few minutes).
- Remove the octopus tentacles from the air fryer and place them on a plate.
- Pour the aguachile over them, and let marinate for a few minutes before serving.
- May be served as I did, or fillet and serve sashimi-style.
- Garnish Persian cucumber, red onion feathers, coriander leaves and a few drops of olive or avocado oil.
