Ingredients

  1. 800g cuttlefish (cleaned, sliced into thick rings)
  2. 3 tbsp olive oil
  3. 1 large onion (finely chopped)
  4. 2 garlic cloves (minced)
  5. 400g canned diced tomatoes (or 4 ripe fresh tomatoes, chopped)
  6. 200g green peas (frozen or fresh)
  7. 100ml dry white wine
  8. 1 bay leaf
  9. Salt and pepper, to taste
  10. Fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish – optional)
  11. Crusty bread or rice, to serve (optional)

Method

  1. Slice cuttlefish pieces into thick rings.
  2. Warm olive oil in a large, heavy-based pan over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté gently, stirring frequently, for about 10 minutes until softened.
  3. Stir in the garlic and cook for 30 seconds, then add the cuttlefish. Cook for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until lightly golden.
  4. Pour in the wine and let it bubble for 1-2 minutes. Add the tomatoes, stock or water, and paprika. Season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  5. Reduce heat to low and simmer gently for 25-30 minutes, allowing the cuttlefish to become tender and the sauce to thicken.
  6. Stir in the peas and cook for an additional 3 minutes until tender. Sprinkle with parsley and serve immediately.

Chef's Tip

Cuttlefish with tomato and peas is all about slow-developed flavour and tender seafood texture. Gentle simmering allows the cuttlefish to soften beautifully while absorbing the rich tomato, garlic, and wine-based sauce. Sweet peas add freshness and balance to the savoury depth of the dish, creating a rustic Mediterranean-style seafood meal that feels hearty, comforting, and full of flavour.
