  2. In a separate bowl, combine the chilli, garlic, ginger, shallot, kecap manis, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the octopus and toss to ensure it’s well coated with the marinade.
  3. Heat the remaining olive oil in a non-stick frying pan over high heat. Drain the octopus, keeping the marinade aside. Cook the octopus, turning frequently, for 2-3 minutes or until lightly golden. Add the reserved marinade to the pan and toss until it starts to boil.
  4. Combine the warm octopus and marinade with the prepared salad. Toss gently to mix. Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side.
