INGREDIENTS:
8 large whole calamari
4 tablespoon virgin olive oil
1 pound fresh peas, shelled to yield 3/4 cup, blanched and refreshed
2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1/2 cup sundried tomatoes, soaked 1/2 hour in warm water
1 1/2 cups fresh breadcrumbs
1 bunch Italian parsley, finely chopped to yield 1/4 cup
2 tablespoons fresh basil chiffonade
1 1/2 cups dry white wine
1 cup tomato sauce

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Clean the calamari. Remove the tentacles, finely chop them and set aside. Remove insides, being careful not to cut the stomach. In a 12 to 14-inch saute pan, heat oil until smoking. Add calamari tentacle pieces and cook until opaque ( no longer than 2 minutes). Add peas, garlic and sundried tomatoes, basil and stir through, about 1 minute. Add bread crumbs and stir to coat. Season with salt and pepper and add parsley. Allow mixture to cool. Stuff bread mixture into each calamari until full and place in a 12 by 8-inch earthenware dish (just large enoughto hold calamari and sauce). Add wine and tomato sauce and stir to settle. Place in oven and bake 35 minutes. Remove and serve
Serves 4 or 8
