Today I'm tying on my apron to make this comforting potato and squid tentacle stew, a homemade dish with genuine seaside flavours to savour by the spoonful. Alongside the squid tentacles, it has cuttlefish and squid, and you can toss in some sea scallop meat if you fancy. Tomato paste, sweet paprika, and bay leaves give the broth a lovely depth without needing lots of seasonings.
This stew is the kind of dish I love bringing to the table for a relaxed meal, cooked unhurriedly on a gentle simmer. It serves four and takes 20 minutes of prep and 45 minutes of cooking. The scallops are optional, so you can leave them out and stick with the rest of the ingredients.
