Heat an espresso pot with a couple of liters of water and a handful of salt to high heat
Step 2
We submerged the defrosted octopus for a few seconds in boiling water three times. You will see that the legs curl.
Step 3
Submerge the octopus, cover the espresso pot and, when steam starts to come out of the spout, close and cook under pressure for 10 minutes
Step 4
While we peel the potatoes, cut them into slices together with the onion (we keep the little tail) and the pumpkin. Put the base on the oven tray and salt lightly.
Step 5
Preheat the oven to 180 degrees.
Step 6
Pour some cooking broth into the oven tray so that the potatoes can be cooked and put it in the oven at 180 degrees for 10 minutes
Step 7
Meanwhile, with scissors, the legs of the octopus and the head were torn to pieces, on the other hand.
Step 8
Place the legs and head on the vegetable bed. If you have run out of broth, add more. Bake another 15 minutes at 180 degrees.
Step 9
We depressurized the pot and opened it.
Step 10
If we want an extra crunch, we can set the oven grill to maximum power or just the fire up for a couple of minutes.
Step 11
Serve the octopus with its garnish, sprinkle the finely chopped onion stick and a drizzle of olive oil on top. Bon Appetit.
