Ingredients to make Feira octopus with potatoes:
1. To make this octopus recipe to Feira with potatoes, the first thing we have to do is freeze the octopus the day before we are going to cook it, because it has very hard meat and thanks to the freezing and defrosting process, its fibers are They break and when we will know that it will always be tender. To defrost the octopus you can leave it in a large container in the fridge to release all the freezing water.
2. The next day, we can already start doing the octopus recipe to Feira or Galician octopus: for this we take a pot with cold water, place the potatoes with skin but washed and wait for them to boil.
3. Apart, in another pot we put water and raise the fire to take it to a boil. In this second pot we will cook the octopus to Feira but we can also use a larger pot, instead of two, and cook everything at once. When the potato pot begins to boil, we scare the octopus three times in the other pot that will also be boiling and we throw it to be cooked. And when the potatoes are already cooked, the octopus will also be cooked because they take the same time.
Trick: scare the octopus is to submerge it and quickly take it out of boiling water to tighten its flesh and do not detach or roll its tentacles when cooking it.
4. Once the Galician octopus is cooked with potatoes, we drain it well and peel the potatoes. Then we cut both octopus and sliced ​​potatoes, sprinkle some fat salt, oil and spicy paprika, and we can serve our octopus to Feira with homemade potatoes.
