Fusilli with Squid and Capers

Fusilli - 1 packet (don't use fresh if you're not a confident cook)
Grape/ Cherry tomoatoes - 1 punnet
Squid - 3-4 medium-large tubes
Capers - As you like
Tomato puree - a generous amount
White wine - As (much as) you like
Brown/ Red onion - 1 large, chopped
Garlic - 2-3 cloves, crushed
Fresh basil - handful, finely shredded
--- * ---
(1) Clean squid, remove insides, cut into thin rings
(2) Cook pasta until al dente (I never know what this means, so just follow instructions on back of packet), run under cold water, and set aside
(3) Brown onions in olive oil, toss in garlic when onions are almost translucent
(4) Throw in squid. Once opaque, add tomatoes, saute
(5) Add wine, tomato puree, capers
(6) Salt and black pepper to taste
(7) Lower heat, toss in pasta, and stir gently to make sure all spirals have a coat of sauce
(8) Finish off with a generous tuft of basil and fresh parmesan
