I am Vietnamese and I live in San Jose, California where we have a sizeable Portuguese population. I used to frequent Souza's to get my Polvo in red sauce. Boy, is that dish GOOD!!! Muito bom!

[@silviagilberta]

Thanks so much. I did it. Instead of batatas i used batatas doces. Living in Porto, now and i like the way Portuguese prepare it

[@user-ru8to5bl1q]

AWSOME dish, it’s a variation of Bacalao a Lagariero. The dish originally was developed by workers who worked at an olive oil producing company. They would prepare the bacalao with plenty of olive oil and punched potatoes for their lunch.

Um dos meus pratos preferidos e dos melhores e mais fáceis de Portugal PARABÉNS

[@carlagalego1547]

Isto é mta bom 🤤 adoro! É o que eu e o meu marido costumamos pedir quando vamos ao português aqui na França... ele adora mesmo....uma vez, quando estava na Alemanha houve uma senhora alemã que me pediu a receita, porque realmente é daqueles pratos únicos... sabe sempre bem... obrigada por mais um excelente prato.... 😊

[@chefmarco155]

E sem dúvida um dos meus pratos preferidos e aqui os ingleses não gostam nada de polvo não sabem o que perdem

[@danigagliardi1087]

My family ar of Sicilian origin and I have many Portuguese friends just as many as I do Italian! And I must say we eat alot of very very similar foods for each sea food dish you guys make we have one always exact tovour own wow Portuguese cook very well thank you 😊 delicious and beautiful presentation

[@isabelserrano6018]

The Portuguese have something very important in common with italians, we don't mix a lot of ingredients together, we keep it simple but always ingredients of extreme good quality. We need to taste each particular ingredient while eating, and it has to be done at a good table with family and friends. As Anthony Bourdain once said In a programme while in Portugal the Portuguese as the only people he knew that would discuss dinner while eating lunch😂😂. One thing italians are masters at however is gelato, when on holiday in Italy some 5 years ago the quality of the gelatos I had were all 5⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐.

[@user-ru8to5bl1q]

I’m both Italian and Portuguese and yes the food and culture are similar. Both countries have a love for food and family.

[@sayyidahfathiyah191]

I will come back again after I try to cook this.

[@garyspik]

Awesome recepie, im doing already 5th polvo

[@bornin1948]

Did I miss something? How long do you put it back into the oven for with the potatoes, garlic and bay leaves?

[@user-og4sn1vt6m]

I'm going to try and cook it your way It will be my first time. The only thing you didn't let us know was, what is the oven temperature And for how long do we leave the octopus in the oven?

[@kebabpower263]

That looks delicious. How long do you roast the meal in the oven please?

[@acaciomadeira5147]

So is that served as a main course or as an appetizer . I might get a my first job as a chef and I whant to incorporate some poetuguese food om to my menu 1. Free range piri piri chicken , 2. Bolinhos de bachalua with romalade sauce , what would you recommend with the cod cakes , and also bolinhos de bacalau taco and arroz de marisco , they don't halve a clue what that is in canada at least in western Canada with Carolina rice

[@chefmarco155]

Thanks 😊

[@dimaumanets2627]

Chef que outras especiarias e ervas aromáticas usou quando pôs o polvo no forno?
Excelente trabalho

[@chefmarco155]

Dima Umanets quando foi ao forno só acrescentei alecrim louro e alho sal e pimenta

[@xoupas]

Sal na cozedura? Cozinho sempre 1 cebola inteira sem sal e fica perfeito, pronto a servir. Porquê o sal? Grande abraço e bom trabalho

[@chefmarco155]

HChoupina o sal ajuda os alimentos a cozinhar começa a romper as fibras e faz com que cozinhe mais rápido o mesmo se aplica a qualquer outro alimento

[@thekilolover]

Hello Marco, thank you for sharing this recipe! I see that you are using the fresh octopus, would the frozen one work the same, being so tender after 1 hour boiling? Did you turn the power/gas to medium or low once it starts to boil? Can't wait to try this. One of the best dish we had when in Lisbon :)

[@gerryg1056]

My favourite dish, unless you count arroz de tamboril or posta mirandesa or cabrito or ... How long do you need to boil the polvo?

[@chefmarco155]

Always need to boil between 40 to 1 hour depending on the size of the octopus or until it’s really soft

[@gerryg1056]

@@chefmarco155 Obrigado👍

[@mariadaveiga8151]

Oven temp? How long in oven? What ingredients in the pan ?

[@FilipeMarley88]

Que aspecto! Tenho mesmo de experimentar 🙏 a menos que não tivesse percebido mas quanto tempo o polvo fica no forno e a que temperatura? Obrigado Chef 🙏🙇🏻‍♂️

[@chefmarco155]

Filipe Aguiar 180 graus e o tempo depende muito por isso fica no forno até as batatas ganharem uma cor

Segui a receita passo a passo e o polvo ficou fantástico 🙏👌
O único senão é que o polvo que era grande ficou bem pequeno 😔 alguma dica? Obrigado pela receita

[@chefmarco155]

Filipe Aguiar infelizmente não há muito a fazer em relação a isso o polvo vai sempre encolher 😅 o que interessa é que fique saboroso 😋

[@FilipeMarley88]

Não sou amante de polvo e muito menos de batata a murro, no entanto, depois de ver o vídeo acho que vou dar um oportunidade!
Abraço

xyfek fico mesmo contente de ouvir isso 😀

Hello! I would love to be able to save the octopus stock, however I find it extremely smelly and it makes me gag. I adore the taste of octopus as long as it's cooked well and the water is thrown out, otherwise the stock permeates everything and the dish tastes overpoweringly fishy. Why would this happen? Am I not using good-quality octopus? (I get one frozen from the Philippines because it's a lot less expensive, however supermarkets sell octopus as well at a higher price, actually from Portugal. It's the equivalent of 15 euros a kilogram, which when it cooks down is extremely expensive.)

[@garyspik]

Thank you for cecepie, im doing already for 3rd time
