Angulas al ajillo
Angulas al ajillo is a traditional Spanish dish made from baby eels. These tiny eels are typically sautéed with garlic and olive oil, resulting in a flavorful delicacy. Angulas are considered a gourmet ingredient and are often enjoyed as a tapa or served over rice.
Ingredients
- 200 g frozen Angulas or fresh baby eels
- 4 cloves garlic finely minced
- 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Instructions
- If using frozen Angulas, thaw them according to the package instructions. If using fresh Angulas, make sure they are cleaned and rinsed properly.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or frying pan over medium heat.
- Add the minced garlic to the pan and sauté it until it becomes fragrant and lightly golden.
- Carefully add the Angulas to the pan, using caution as they can be delicate. Gently stir them with a wooden spoon or spatula.
- Cook the Angulas for about 2-3 minutes, or until they are heated through and slightly translucent.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remember, Angulas have a delicate flavor, so go easy on the seasoning.
- Once cooked, transfer the Angulas to a serving dish, making sure to include the garlic and any remaining olive oil from the pan.
