Preparation Sauté an onion in a large pan with the oil. Clean the calamari and cut them into pieces. Add them to the pan and let them cook on a medium heat. Add some broth if required.

Then add the baby cuttlefish and just before they are soft, add the shrimp tails. Remove the bones from the angler fish and cut it into regular cubes. Add to the pot and cook for a few minutes.

Add the cream, the gorgonzola in small cubes, the mustard and the salt and mix them all together over a medium fire until it thickens and becomes uniform.

Put the mixture in the shells and let them brown in the oven at 200°C. Serve straight away together with the vegetables you prefer.
