INGREDIENTS

  • 1 kg cleaned calamari, cut into rings
  • 1 vegetable stock cube
  • 1 large onion, finely chopped
  • 1 yellow bell pepper, finely chopped
  • 1 red bell pepper, finely chopped
  • 5 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 cup (250ml) tomato juice
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/3 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 medium potatoes, cut into slices
  • 1 liter hot water
  • Fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • Bread

METHOD

  1. In a pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat and sauté the onion and peppers. Season with salt and pepper, add the stock cube, and sauté until softened.
  2. Pour in the tomato juice and stir for 1 minute.
  3. Add the calamari and sauté for 3–4 minutes. Add the potatoes, pour in the water to cover the food, and bring to a boil.

  5. Taste for salt and pepper, remove from the heat, and serve with bread and parsley.
