Method
-
Place the fresh white beans in a saucepan with the water, peeled carrot, 150 g green pepper and 150 g spring onion in large pieces. Add some salt and simmer very gently for 30–45 minutes until the beans are tender; follow the packet timing for frozen beans.
-
Drain the beans and let them cool until warm. Remove and chop the cooked vegetables; they go into the salad rather than being discarded. Finely dice the red pepper, the remaining 50 g green pepper and the remaining 100 g spring onion.
-
Mix the vinegar, oil, sweet paprika, chopped chives and parsley and the remaining salt. Slice the cooked octopus into 1–2 cm pieces.
-
Gently combine the beans, cooked and raw vegetables, octopus and dressing. Divide between four plates and serve warm; if not serving promptly, cool quickly and refrigerate.
