Squid with Red Wine
Description
Perfect for the table and with drinks. This dish is best served with a glass of red wine. Preparation: Clean the squid of the surface membrane and rinse under cold water. Slice into rings and pat dry on paper towels. Finely chop the onion and grate the garlic. Peel the tomatoes and chop finely. Heat the oil in a large frying pan. Add the onion and garlic and fry until softened. Add the squid and cook until browned. Add the tomatoes, salt, pepper, sugar, cinnamon, and red wine. Braise uncovered over low heat until the squid are tender. The sauce should be thick and rich. If the sauce is too oily, remove the squid from the sauce and simmer the sauce until thickened.
