Ingredients

800 g cleaned raw squid
500 g tomatoes
180 g onion
12 g garlic
30 g olive oil
250 ml water
4 g salt
1 g black pepper
15 g parsley

Preparation

Check that the squid is cleaned, without quill or beak. Cut the tubes into rings and the tentacles into pieces.

Sauté the onion in oil for 5 minutes, then add the garlic and tomatoes. Cook for 5 minutes.

Add the squid, water, salt, and pepper. Cover and maintain a gentle simmer for about 30 to 40 minutes, until tender.

Uncover to thicken the sauce if necessary, then add parsley and lemon off the heat. Serve hot.
