Preparation

Step 1

Add the spinach and saute,stirring,until it has wilted.Drain off any extra liquid and cool the spinach mixture.
In the mixing bowl,combine the ricotta,egg,parsley,and cooled spinach mixture.
mix thoroughly and season with the salt,pepper,and chile flakes.
Loosely stuff the mixture into the squid bodies and close the openings securely with toothpicks.
Use the remaining 1 tbsp of oil to grease a rectangular baking dish large enough to hold the squid comfortably in one layer.

Bake for 40-50 min.or until the squid is tender and the sauce has thickened.If there is too much sauce,raise the oven temp.and allow the liquid to reduce.If there is to little,add more white wine.Serve the squid with the lemon Quarters.
