Ingredients – 5 Servings
- 500 g wholemeal Fusilli Pasta
- 2-3 large squids
- 7-8 cherry tomatoes
- 1 garlic clove
- 1 chilly pepper (facultative)
- 1/2 glass of white wine
- salt, pepper, olive oil
- fresh parsley and basil leaves
Directions
- We will clean the squid carefully, wash them well in running water, and cut them into pieces.
- Put a pot of boiling water to boil the pasta.
- In a saucepan, add the olive oil, garlic, and chili peppers. If you have children who will consume this recipe, do not use chili peppers.
- Once the oil is flavored, add the chopped and dried squid from the excess water.
- Cook for a few minutes and quench with white wine. Raise the cooking temperature so that the alcohol evaporates.
- Once the alcohol evaporates, add the cut in half-washed tomatoes. Add a little salt and pepper and cook at high temperature for 2-3 minutes until the tomatoes are released.
- Continue cooking the sauce at medium temperature with the lid on until the tomatoes cook. We season it with chopped fresh parsley and basil leaves.
- Meanwhile, the water boils, add salt and bring the pasta to a boil. We will cook for the time indicated on the packaging.
- At the last minute, pass them through a colander to the saucepan. Add a little more water from the boiling water of the pasta.
- We will leave them at medium temperature to season with the calamari and tomato sauce for another 1-2 minutes.
- Enjoy pasta with plenty of olive oil, salt, pepper, parsley, and basil.
- Serve Fusilli pasta immediately.
