Method

  1. 1

    Cook the squid ink spaghetti in well-salted boiling water until al dente.

  2. 2

    Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large frying pan over a high heat. Fry the squid rings for 2 minutes until golden, then remove and set aside.

  3. 3

    Reduce the heat to medium. Add the remaining oil, garlic and chilli flakes and fry for 1 minute. Add the cherry tomatoes and cook for 5 minutes until bursting.

  4. 4

    Pour in the wine and simmer for 2 minutes. Return the squid to the pan.

  5. 5

    Drain the spaghetti, reserving pasta water, and toss with the sauce, adding water to loosen.

  6. 6

    Serve in bowls with a generous dollop of aioli on top and a scatter of parsley.
