Spicy Calamari

A very nice dish with lots of flavour and low on fat.

500 g squid rings
2 tbsp olive oil
2 large garlic cloves, sliced
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
14 1/2 oz can diced tomatoes
1 tsp dried basil
1/2 tsp dried oregano
Salt and Freshly ground pepper to taste (I don't use salt on this)


  1. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, cook olive oil, garlic and red pepper flakes 1 to 2 minutes or until garlic is lightly golden.  Remove garlic with a slotted spoon and reserve.
  2. Add tomatoes, basil and oregano to saucepan.  Bring to boil; add squid.  Reduce heat to low and cook 20 to 25 minutes or until squid is tender, stirring occasionally.  Season to taste with salt and pepper.  Transfer to a serving dish and scatter reserved garlic over top.
