Squid in almond sauce, a simple dish with a flavorful sauce.
It is a dish that we can prepare from one day to the next, as you already know the sauces are better rested and this one is for dipping bread !!! We can use frozen squid for this dish, but if you use them fresh, the recipe will be much better, due to the good taste of the squid.
We can prepare a complete dish if we accompany it with some cooked potatoes as I have prepared it or a cooked rice, a salad and we have a very complete meal. It is also a good dish to take away in the tupperware to eat at work.
