Stir-Fried Squid

November 29, 2011 By Delia

Stir-fried squid is a simple seafood recipe that you can prepare in minutes. You can eat it as is with rice or alongside other meat or vegetable dishes. Serve it immediately because the taste may change if you store it in the fridge and eat it the next day.

 

Serves 4

Ingredients:

600g squid

3 tablespoons oil

100g onions, cut into wedges

3 cloves garlic, chopped

2 large red chili, seeded and sliced

2 tablespoons oyster sauce

1 cup leeks, sliced

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper

 

Clean the squid under running water and remove the ink sacs. Cut the squid into rings or squares. Score it if desired.

Heat the oil in a wok over medium heat. Sauté the garlic, onions and chili for 2-3 minutes or until fragrant. Add the leeks and oyster sauce. Cook it for another 2-3 minutes or until the leeks are soft and translucent. Add the salt, pepper and squid. Stir-fry it for 5 minutes or until the squid turns white. Do not overcook. Transfer to a serving plate. Serve immediately with rice.

Salt and Pepper Squid with Cucumber Salad

November 18, 2011 By Delia

Salt and pepper squid with cucumber salad is a healthy dish that you can prepare in minutes. It is a fusion of Asian and Western cuisine which is great for lunch or dinner. It goes perfectly well with white wine.

 

Serves 4

Ingredients:

500g cleaned squid

1/2 teaspoon cracked black pepper

1 teaspoon sea salt

1/2 teaspoon lemon pepper seasoning

1 tablespoon peanut oil

For the cucumber salad:

1 cucumber, sliced thinly

150g cherry tomatoes, halved

1/3 cup roasted unsalted peanuts, chopped coarsely

1/2 cup loosely packed fresh mint leaves

1 tablespoon red wine vinegar

1 tablespoons peanut oil

 

Clean the squids by removing the ink sacs and remove the heads.  Cut them on the side and open it. Using a small sharp knife, score the inside and make a diagonal pattern without cutting all the way through. Slice into 8 pieces.

Next make the cucumber salad by combining the cucumbers, onions, tomatoes, nuts and mint in a medium sized bowl. Add the vinegar and oil. Gently toss until the vegetables are coated.

Combine the salt, pepper and lemon pepper seasoning. Sprinkle it over the squid.

Heat the oil in a wok over medium heat. Stir-fry squid in batches or until they curl and they are cooked through, around 2-3 minutes. Serve the squid immediately with cucumber salad.
