Tender calamari simmered gentle and slow in cream, garlic and herbs — cooked just until it melts, in the traditional clay pot, with fresh bread on the side. You will find it at Aylla Seafood Restaurant & Café, right beside Waterfront Market in Dubai.

What’s in the Tagine
Four things make the tagine what it is:
Tenderness Is a Technique
Calamari has one rule: patience. Ours go into the clay pot over the gentlest heat with cream and garlic, and stay there just long enough to turn butter-soft. Rushed calamari is rubber; ours is the reason this pot sells out.
From the Clay Pot
No secrets — just the rules we keep at every service:
Shrimp, calamari and fish picked from the day’s catch, right next door.
Simmered slow with silky cream or our rich red sauce and Gulf spices.
Landed hot in the pot, with bread and rice to soak up every drop.
