Meanwhile, put a small pot of water on the stove, cut the cherry tomatoes with the tip of a knife and blanch them in boiling water for about 10 seconds. Drain immediately in cold water, remove the skin and place them in a bowl. Pour the cuttlefish into the pan with the leek and sauté together for a couple of minutes.
