Spaghetti with Squid sauce and almonds. A dish inspired by Sicilian cuisine and perfect for the summer because it's cool, fast and easy to prepare. And the fresh tomato, especially if a Pachino or Datterino, It is definitely a difference in this recipe. The calamari sauce and toasted almonds is a tasty and elegant first course of fish, absolutely not difficult to prepare: the grated lemon zest adds a touch of freshness. Give then a look at all my SICILIAN RECIPES, where you will find lots RECIPES WITH SQUIDS.
I usually prepare spaghetti with meat sauce squid and almonds using only with tails of squid, when you purchase them to prepare STUFFED SQUID. Thus with a single prepare spending both the first and the second plate, although you can use the whole squid, because it's all chopped finely. If you are keen on main courses of fish, pasta with ragu of squid and almonds is a good and fast alternative to classic dishes such as PASTA WITH CLAMS or the PASTA WITH MUSSELS AND CHEESE or the SPAGHETTI WITH CLAMS SICILY. In short, try this dish, because I'm sure it will become a wild card in your kitchen. Have a good day!

Dinner plate…… I tried a few days ago a black version of fish (squid and Octopus) and, , imagining the flavor, I find your laudable version!
The Octopus ragout!!! I haven't ever done, It's on my list and now that you reminded me that rose to the top!

Thanks Neph! Maybe it's because I particularly like fish, How do you see the meat has a lot of space between my recipes…. Kisses
I see squid ink being used very often, do you have any other alternative?
Hi Ash! You can use octopus or any kind of fish you like. Be careful in cooking time because soft fish cooks very little, but you can follow the recipe in all the other steps.
Despite the hour make you mouth water….. though midnight spaghetti….. Vist!
Next time you see me is watering that we take a snack! Ada Kisses
