- 125 ml (½ cup) olive oil
- 2 (about 500 g) octopus, cleaned, cut into large pieces

Drizzle remaining 65 ml oil over octopus, cuttlefish and prawns and toss to coat. Preheat a barbecue or chargrill pan to high heat and cook octopus and cuttlefish for 4 minutes on each side or until tender. Cook prawns for 2 minutes on each side or until just cooked.
