Cantara - Stuffed Squid Portuguese Style
Stuffed squids with a Portuguese-inspired blend of rice, tomato, and spices.
These Portuguese-style stuffed squid combine tender tubes with a filling of rice and the squid's own chopped tentacles. The tomato sauce adds the sweetness, while paprika and garlic bring warmth and depth that combine with the squid's natural flavour.
These traditional "lulas recheadas" have a satisfying textural contrast between the tender squid and the light filling. Serve them gently warmed with plenty of crusty bread for mopping up the sauce, or alongside a simple salad of bitter greens dressed olive oil and lemon juice. A taste of Portugal, prepared the traditional way and ready to enjoy.
Ingredients: Squids (Illex argentinus) (mollucs): 52%, Sunflower Oil: 19%, Giant Calamari: 11%, Onion: 8%, Rice: 4%, Tomato: 4%, Spices, Salt.

Near Porto, the family-run Cantara cannery brings Portugal's Atlantic seafood to the tin with remarkable attention to detail. Their sardines deliver that clean, bright flavour that makes Portuguese preserves so compelling—firm-textured and richly satisfying with the distinctive character that comes from traditional preparation.
