Instructions
Fill a large saucepan with water, add the onion, carrot, celery and bay leaf and bring to a boil.
Add the octopus and simmer over moderate heat for 1 hour, until tender.

Add the potatoes to the boiling water and cook until tender, 25 minutes.
Let cool slightly, then peel and dice the potatoes.
In a large bowl, combine the octopus with the potatoes, green beans, garlic, parsley and olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
Serve warm or at room temperature.
