Squid in Tomato Sauce

 

Recipe Categories : | Squid | All Seafood | MAIN INDEX |


Ingredients :

  • 1kg (2lb) squid
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1 sprig of rosemary
  • 125ml vegetable oil
  • 600g ripe tomatoes
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • 50g butter


Preparation and Cooking Instructions :

  1. Clean the squid carefully (retaining the ink sacs) wash and cut into strips then allow to drain in a colander. Chop the garlic and rosemary finely, then put into a saucepan with the oil. Heat the oil and sauté the herbs for 2 minutes, add the squid and continue to cook, stirring frequently over a moderate heat.
  2. Wash and sieve or blend the tomatoes and add them to the pan together with the ink sacs, some salt and a few twists of pepper. Cover with a really tight-fitting lid and simmer very gently for 2 hours (the liquid should only just bubble) Open the saucepan as little as possible, but from time to time to check that the pan is not drying up.
  3. Add the butter and if the sauce is too thin, thicken it slightly with a little flour, check the seasoning and serve very hot.
