Stuffed Calamari with Peas and Sundried Tomatoes (Mario Batali) Recipe
Posted by
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Bring 3 quarts of water to a boil and add 1 tablespoon salt. Set up an ice bath nearby. Add the peas and blanch them for 30 seconds, then drain and immediately plunge into the ice bath. Once cooled, drain and set aside.
- Clean the calamari. Remove the tentacles, finely chop them, and set aside. Remove insides, being careful not to cut the stomach.
- In a 12 to 14-inch saute pan, heat the oil until smoking. Add the calamari tentacle pieces and cook until opaque. Add the peas, garlic, and sun-dried tomatoes and stir through, about 1 minute. Add bread crumbs and stir to coat. Season with salt and pepper and add parsley. Allow mixture to cool.
- Stuff bread mixture into each calamari until full and place in a 12 by 8-inch earthenware dish (just large enough to hold calamari and sauce). Add wine and tomato sauce and stir to settle. Bake for 35 minutes, then remove, and serve.
- Basic Tomato Sauce:
- In a 3-quart saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook until soft and light golden brown, about 8 to 10 minutes. Add the thyme and carrot, and cook 5 minutes more, until the carrot is quite soft. Add the tomatoes and juice and bring to a boil, stirring often. Lower the heat and simmer for 30 minutes until as thick as hot cereal. Season with salt and serve. This sauce holds one week in the refrigerator or up to six months in the freezer.
- Yield: 4 cups
