- 1,200
kg of medium-sized squid ;
- 1
dl of olive oil ;
- 3
cloves of garlic ;
- 1
bay leaf ;
- 1
dl of dry white wine ;

a lemon
;
- 3
peppercorns ;
- 800
grs of potatoes ;
- salt
to taste ;
- pepper
to taste ;
- water
Preparation:
Prepare
the squid, removing the guts and he skin. Wash them carefully in cold
water not opening them in order to take away the impurities. Then
season them with salt and pepper.
Place a deep pan on the flame. Pour the olive oil into the pan, and
add the cloves of garlic crushed in their peels, the bay leaf and the
peppercorns. Let the garlic brown but not burn.
Add the squid, frying them on both sides on a low flame.
Add the white wine and, if necessary, a little water to conclude the
cooking. When the squid are cooked, sprinkle them with chopped
parsley.
Place them on a serving dish, accompanied by boiled potatoes and lemon
segments.
Hint:
The squid should be medium-sized because those are more tender,
which makes the cooking easier. When they are ready they can also be
served with fried potatoes.
