Ingredients:

300g spaghetti
2 tbsp olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp red chilli flakes
1 can (400g) crushed tomatoes
300g squid, cleaned and sliced into rings
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 tsp sugar
Fresh basil, for garnish
Grated Parmesan cheese, for serving

Instructions:

1 Prepare the Sauce
Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Sauté garlic and red chilli flakes until fragrant. Add canned tomatoes and simmer for 10 minutes, then season with salt, pepper, and a pinch of sugar.
2 Cook the Squid
While the sauce is simmering, heat a separate pan with a little olive oil. Add sliced squid and cook for 2-3 minutes until just opaque. Add the squid to the tomato sauce and cook for an additional 5 minutes.
3 Cook the Spaghetti
Meanwhile, cook the spaghetti in salted boiling water according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and toss with a bit of olive oil.
4 Combine and Serve
Toss the cooked spaghetti with the spicy squid and tomato sauce until well combined. Garnish with fresh basil and a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.
