Preparation

How to prepare Cuttlefish Stew without Tomato

To prepare the cuttlefish stew without tomato, first take care of cleaning the cuttlefish (alternatively, ask your trusted fishmonger to clean them): separate the head from the body 1, remove the beak and eyes 2, then open the mantle and remove the skin. Finally, rinse them well under running water, including the tentacles. Cut the cuttlefish into strips approximately 1/4 inch wide 3.

Peel the potatoes and cut them in half lengthwise, then cut them in half again and finally into not-too-large cubes 4. In a pan, sauté the cloves of garlic with their skin 5, then add the cuttlefish 6 and brown for a couple of minutes on high heat.

Add the potatoes 7 and deglaze with the white wine 8, then let the alcohol evaporate 9.

Pour a glass of water into the pan 10, salt 11 and pepper, then lower the heat and cover with a lid 12. Cook on low heat for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.

After this time, taste the potatoes to check if they are cooked: they should be soft but not mushy. Then raise the heat and let the cooking juices thicken for about 5 minutes, then remove the garlic from the pan 13 and add flavor with chopped parsley 14. Your cuttlefish stew without tomato is ready to be served 15!
