Stuffed squid with peppers and kasseri cheese
INGREDIENTS
- 10 medium squid
- 1 fresh onion (chopped)
- 1 medium onion (cut into half rings)
- 1 medium tomato (cut into half rings)
- 1/4 yellow bell pepper (cut into sticks)
- 1/4 red pepper (cut into sticks)
- 1/4 orange pepper (cut into sticks)
- 10 sticks kasseri cheese or gouda or regkato (or any cheese that melts)
- Salt and pepper
For the sauce
- 1 onion (chopped)
- olive oil
- lemon juice
- pepper, oregano, curry, boukovo (flake powder made from the seeds of hot red peppers), nutmeg (powdered)
METHOD
- Wash and clean the squids.
- Lie them down and cut the upper side at 2-3 places to make holes to indicate the materials to be put. ATTENTION not to cut down and made rings.
- Add salt and pepper to the squid and fill in with the materials.
- Then place them one by one in a foil, making small bowls so they can roast with the sauce and place them in a baking pan or pyrex.
- Prepare the sauce:
- In a bowl, add all ingredients and stir with a spoon.
- Add 1 tablespoon of sauce over in each squid.
- Close the foil on top and bake at 200oC for 30′.
- Open the foil and continue baking for more 10′ to brown slightly.
TIP 2: If the sauce is not so much, do not worry. The squid will take off its fluids, so there is no fear to burn.

This looks absolutely DELICIOUS and simple! I’ll have to go get some squid now! Ooh, especially since I’ve got these bell peppers that I wasn’t sure what to do with
Now, can using frozen squid work, as well? By that, I mean thawing it and then stuffing it. Thanks for sharing!
yes you can use frozen squid (after thawing of course as you said…
)
Oh those look delicious! I have to try this!! I have never cooked squid before (I have eaten it though
)
Hester asked the question I was going to ask – good to know the answer. I’d love to give this a shot soon …
BEAUTIFUL. I love me some squid.
You know, Italians say that cheese and fish don’t get along, but this dish may prove them wrong. Looks fabulous!
I am so used to squid – Italian style – fried or baked or in a salad. Never combined with cheese. This is amazingly delectable. And gorgeous to look at!
I always love squid dish and this one looks especially tasty. Many thanks for sharing this recipe.
