For the sauce:
Three Streams Smokehouse is proud to partner with Woolworths South Africa in the retail sector, supplying sustainably sourced and responsibly farmed Norwegian Salmon, Rainbow Trout, and a variety of other premium-quality seafood products.
As of 2024, we are honoured to not only supply Woolworths in the Deli, Frozen, and Primal categories but also to have taken over the management and supply of their Fresh Seafood Counters.
This partnership means that Three Streams Smokehouse now proudly supplies an extensive range of seafood products to Woolworths stores across the Western Cape, Gauteng, and KwaZulu-Natal regions.
Prepare the squid:
Separate the tentacles from the tubes.
Chop the tentacles into small pieces and set aside.
Pat dry the tubes with paper towel.
Make the stuffing:
Heat olive oil in a pan,
sauté onion and garlic until softened.
Add chopped tentacles,
cook for 2–3 minutes.
Stir in cherry tomatoes, cooked rice (or breadcrumbs), parsley, lemon juice, chili flakes, salt & pepper.
Cook until mixture comes together, then remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Stuff the squid:
Fill each squid tube about ¾ full with stuffing (don’t overfill as they shrink when cooking). Seal open ends with toothpicks.
Cook the sauce:
In a wide pan, heat olive oil and sauté garlic until fragrant.
Add tinned tomatoes, white wine, paprika, sugar, salt & pepper. Simmer 10 minutes.
Simmer squid:
Gently place stuffed squid into the sauce. Cover and simmer on low for 25–30 minutes, turning halfway through, until squid is tender.
Serve:
Remove toothpicks, slice the squid into rounds, spoon sauce over, and garnish with fresh parsley or basil.
Serving Suggestion:
Serve with crusty bread, a crisp green salad, or buttery mashed potatoes.
A glass of chilled Sauvignon Blanc pairs beautifully.
