Octopus for dinner

I cooked the Octopus we got in Asuncion from Angelina following the recipe she gave us; boiled the octopus for almost an hour
Sautéed tomatoes, onions, green chilies, added the cut up octopus a can of pureed tomatoes, salsa el Pato (Spicy!!) and voila. Interesting!. There must a better way to cook it, but until I find it I wont be cooking it again.
