Ingredients

10 medium size calamari

1 cup of olive oil

2 - 3 spring onions or 1 plain onion finely copped

2 fresh ripe tomatoes blended

1/2 cup of rice Carolina or long grain

1/2 bunch of parsley finely chopped

salt – pepper

0,25 gr., of saffron preferably from Kozani (best quality

1 clove of garlic (optional)

Directions

We wash and clean Calamari, as follows: We cut head off and keep just the tentacles making sure to remove the white small ball in between them. We remove backbone from inside the Calamari and remove everything inside and wash well. We cut the tentacles in small pieces.

We wet saucepan with olive oil and sauté the onion. We add the tentacles and sauté as well. We add rice and sauté stirring constantly. We add salt and pepper, the parsley, we add water (about 1 cup) in which we have dissolved the saffron and simmer until water is absorbed. We let it cool down and stuff the Calamari. We close the opening with a toothpick, place in a glass pan, and add rest of oil and a glass of water.

Preheat oven at 180o and bake for 45 minutes
