I made spaghetti with squid today. It is a kind of 30 minutes meal deal because it’s Monday and I have a lot of thing going on in my house. I love adding butter in hot pasta and watch it melt away and spread throughout the bowl, and then finally when we pour the sauce over… it’s wonderfully delicious. This squid sauce is quick and easy, but yet flavourful. It is not overwhelmed by herbs but very simple and fresh.
