Spagetti biz-zalza tal-qarnit

Spagetti biz-zalza tal-qarnit is a traditional dish consisting of spaghetti with octopus sauce. The dish is usually made with a combination of octopus, spaghetti, peas, black olives, tomatoes, onions, tomato paste, red wine, olive oil, lemon zest, mint, basil, salt, and black pepper. The octopus is cut into pieces, fried in olive oil, and left to cool. Tomato paste and herbs are added to the pot, along with chopped onions, chopped tomatoes, sliced olives, and lemon zest. The octopus is placed back into the pan with peas, wine, and seasonings, and the dish is cooked for about half an hour. Once done, the octopus sauce is served on top of al dente spaghetti.
