Number Of Ingredients 14

1 pound dried chickpeas
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 medium onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, chopped

1 teaspoon whole cumin seed
1 (28-ounce) can whole, peeled tomatoes
1 cup water
2 red bell peppers, roasted, peeled and chopped

Yield 2-3 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 1/2 tbsp. olive oil
2 lbs. (1 kg) fresh squid, cleaned and sliced
1/2 cup white wine
1 1/2 cups passata or chopped tomatoes
