Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Salt
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
4 cups cooked or canned white beans, with about a cup of their liquid
3/4 to 1 pound cleaned squid, cut up
Black pepper
2 cups broken egg noodles
Stock or water, if needed
1 tablespoon minced garlic
Chopped fresh parsley leaves for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • * 1. Bring a medium pot of water to a boil, and salt it. Meanwhile, put half the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. A minute later, add the beans and their liquid. Bring to a boil, stirring, and add squid, along with some salt and pepper. Reduce heat to a simmer, and continue to cook, stirring occasionally. * 2. When water boils, cook the noodles until they are barely tender, about 5 minutes. Drain, and add them to the simmering beans. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the squid and noodles are tender, adding a little liquid if necessary. (Do not add liquid prematurely -- the squid will produce a lot on its own.) * 3. When just about done, add garlic. Cook it just long enough to take the edge off its rawness. Spoon the mixture into 4 dishes, garnishing with parsley and sprinkling with remaining olive oil.
