Calamari Murati – Mother-in-law Recipe

Calamari murati recipe is a good plate to make and share with your friends, especially your foodie friends.

This recipe was handed down to me by my mother-in-law, and I must say that it is a very tasty dish thanks to the very special ingredients that ensures its success at the table.

As some know, most mothers-in-law know how to cook very well, and if you don’t follow what they advise you, they can be a pain in the butt.

I must admit that my mother-in-law is very good at cooking (and she boasts about it a lot too) but I am better at making sweets ?.

• 1 medium onion
• 1 glass of white wine
• olive oil extra virgin
• chopped parsley optional

Instructions

 

• How to clean the calamari
• Wash the squid under running water.
• With one hand grasp the head of the calamari and with the other, the body gently pulls the head to determine the detachment of the entrails.
• Eliminate the transparent rigid internal structure that supports the calamari’s body (the gladius) being careful not to break the bag.
• Remove the skin.
• From the head of the calamari remove the beak that is in the center of the tentacles with the help of the scissors.
• Take out the eyes and rinse under cold water and once cleaned the calamari we can then cut the bag into round pieces and leave the tentacles intact.
• How to cook them
• In a pan, fry the chopped onion in oil, add the peeled tomato as soon as it is golden, add salt and pepper, simmer for at least 15-20 minutes over medium heat.
• Add the cleaned and cut calamari, mix everything together, and add in a glass of white wine.
• Cook for at least 20 minutes, until the liquid evaporated. Add more salt and pepper if you need it.
• Turn off the heat, put it in a serving dish, and sprinkle with chopped parsley (optional).
