Instructions

  1. Prepare the calamari by cleaning if necessary. Chop the body into half-inch rings and keep the rest together as a whole. 
  2. Finely chop the onion, while heating the olive oil in a pan on medium heat. Once the oil is hot throw in the onions and stir frequently to avoid them burning.
  3. Once the onions are softened and golden throw in the calamari. Salt them slightly and stir to avoid them sticking to the pan. Cook on medium heat for about 5 minutes.
  4. Pour in the strained tomatoes. Adjust the heat so that the mixture is simmering lightly. Salt again slightly, stir, cover the pan with a lid and let cook for about 10 minutes.
  5. Check whether anything is sticking to the bottom of the pan or if too much liquid has evaporated. If so, add a couple tablespoons of water. Then add the peas and cover again, letting cook for another 20 minutes. Stir occasionally and add water if needed. 
  6. Finally, add chili powder to taste and salt if needed, and let cook for an additional 5 minutes. Then serve warm, with bread or on its own.
