Calamares a La Plancha image

This dish of small, whole squids is a classic tapa from Andalucia (southern Spain). You could substitute squid rings or even small, white fish that have been butterflied. Although it's usually cooked on a hot, flat griddle (plancha), this recipe uses a frying pan.

Overall, I thought this recipe was pretty good. The calamari was cooked well and the sauce was tasty. However, I think it could have used a bit more spice.

This recipe was easy to follow and the calamari turned out great! It was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The sauce was also very flavorful.

This dish was a bit too oily for my taste. The calamari was also a bit overcooked. I think I would try a different recipe next time.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The calamari was a bit tough and the sauce was not very flavorful. I probably won't make it again.

Meh. The calamari was okay, but the sauce was really bland. I had to add a lot of spices to make it taste good.

Not a fan. The calamari was overcooked and the sauce was too salty. I won't be making this dish again.
