Introducing Pappa al Pomodoro, a traditional Italian rustic dish. This surprisingly simple recipe involves simmering bread in tomatoes to create a porridge-like consistency, making it perfect for using up leftover bread. We're serving it with sautéed squid for an authentic dish you can easily make at home.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients (2 servings)
- Canned Whole Tomatoes 400g
- Bread 100g
- Basil Leaves 6
- Garlic Clove 1
- Tomato Juice 200ml
- Squid 1 whole
Seasonings
- Olive Oil (to taste)
- Salt (to taste)
- Black Pepper (to taste)
- Water (as needed)
- White Wine (for deglazing)
Steps
- First, let's make the tomato bread porridge.
- Clean the squid (1 whole) and cut it into bite-sized pieces.
- Soak the bread (100g) in water, lightly squeeze out the excess, and place it in a colander. (This is the key!) It's okay if it's not completely dry.
- Heat olive oil (to taste) and the garlic clove in a frying pan over medium heat.
- Once the garlic is lightly colored and fragrant, add the canned whole tomatoes (400g) and tomato juice (200ml).
- Once heated, add the drained bread (100g), mix gently, and simmer.
- Season with salt (to taste) and black pepper (to taste).
- If the mixture becomes too dry, add water (as needed).
- Cover and simmer over low heat for 10 minutes.
- Next, cut the squid (1 whole) into rings or bite-sized pieces. The tentacles can also be used.
- Heat olive oil (to taste) in a separate frying pan over medium heat.
- Add the cut squid and sauté until it changes color. Lightly sprinkle with salt (to taste).
- Deglaze the pan with white wine (for deglazing), scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan, and mix well.
- Tear the basil leaves (6) and add them to the tomato porridge that has been simmering for 10 minutes. Mix briefly.
- Drizzle with olive oil (to taste) for finishing.
- Add the remaining sauce from sautéing the squid to the tomato porridge and mix.
- Plate the tomato bread porridge, top with the sautéed squid, and pour the remaining sauce over everything.
- Garnish with basil leaves and it's ready to serve.
