Steps:
- Dip the octopus in cold water, make it boil and cook slowly for about 40 minutes. Then turn off the heat and let the octopus cook covered in its water till it's quite cool. From time to time (not too often otherwise you risk losing the heat from the pot) turn the octopus and check the softness with the tines of a fork.
- Peel the potatoes and cut them into cubes of about 2 cm (1 inch). Boil them in plenty of lightly salted water for about 20 minutes. Drain and let them cool.
- in a bowl, using a fork or a small whisk, emulsify oil, chopped parsley, lemon juice, a clove of garlic (which you will remove), salt and pepper.
- After the octopus has cooled, remove it from the water and place it on a cutting board. Remove excess skin and cut the octopus into small pieces. Place octopus and potatoes in a serving dish. Add the seasoning, and mix very gently until the marinade is evenly distributed. Let octopus and potato salad rest for 1 hour to well combine the ingredients before serving.

OCTOPUS AND POTATO SALAD
Steps:
- Rinse the octopus well under cold water and clean the sac, making sure to get rid of any grit. Flip the octopus over and look for the beak (the dark, hard, crusty shell-like bit) and scoop out with a paring knife. Add the beak and octopus to a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil, and then lower to medium-high heat and cook until the octopus is fork tender, about 40 minutes. Drain and let cool, and then cut into bite-size pieces. Meanwhile, peel your potatoes, cut into bite-size pieces and cover with cold water in another pot. Bring to a boil and cook until tender. Combine the octopus, potatoes, olive oil and lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. Add the black olives and parsley to finish.

- Put the octopus in a pot with water to cover; add the bay leaves, thyme, and garlic. Turn the heat to medium, cover, and bring to a boil.

Add the potatoes to the water and cook for another 10 to 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender. Drain and discard everything but the octopus and potatoes.
- Transfer the potatoes to a platter (wood is traditional) and the octopus to a cutting board. Let cool for a couple of minutes, then cut it into bitesized pieces. Add to the potatoes, sprinkle with paprika, drizzle with plenty of olive oil, and toss gently. Sprinkle with salt and serve.
