removed. Cover the bottom of a saucepan with oil; add the rosemary,
bay leaf oregano, cumin seeds, parley, chili pepper, tomatoes and
chopped garlic. Place the octopus on top of this mixture and season
with salt and pepper. Cover the pot very tightly and simmer for about
45 minutes. Cook the spaghetti in plenty of boiling salted water
until it is ‘al dente’ (firm to the bite). Drain and turn onto a
warm serving dish. Mix the octopus sauce into the spaghetti. Serve
piping hot.
