Chop the shrimp with a knife to make a tartare, season with salt, pepper, parsley, oil, lime zest and leave everything in the refrigerator. Soak the salted capers, and then fry them in oil until they become crunchy. In a pan heat the potatoe velloutè with the Red Pesto, stir until combined. Grill the octopus tentacles and season them with a drizzle of oil, salt and pepper. On a palte, place a pastry mold in the center and fill with the prawn tartare. Pour in the velloutè, palce the grilled octopus around the plate and on top of the tartare. Finish with a drizzle of basil flavored oil and a basil leaf.
