pellipeeli11 0 Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 now where i come from we dont catch many squid so every time i get to adelaide i will hunt out some fresh ones(Whole) then clean as normal but keep all of the meaty bits,flaps/wings,discard the eyes but keep all the stuff from around them also from around the beak, and the tentercles?. Inside the tube you will find two long pieces of nice tender finger like pieces of flesh save these as well.plus the meaty bits above the eyes. give the rest to your burlie mix.clean the tubes and put asidemince or chop all the other stuff (I just cut it into chunks)get a few raw prawn tails,some fish fillets,mabee a couple of mussels,or any other seafoody stuff like cockles,crab etc cut all this in chunks and mix all together with some real butter,cashew nuts,whatever herbs or spice you like(I use fresh chilly,ginger and garlic,salt/pepper .add a few seasoned bread crumbs(not many)and one or two eggs.now just stuff this mixture into the squid tubes ,and sllooooow fry in chilli flavured olive oil,a dash of good soy sauce and butter ,*Cook slow or you will burn the butter(dont use margarine) when cooked thru you can eat hot or as i do let them go cold and slice tubes thru and serve with salad . :P : Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Butters Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 that sounds like it would be bloody tasty..I shoulda kept some of the squid from the weekend instead of donating them to the bait freezer.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jewie 3 Posted August 23, 2008 Report Share Posted August 23, 2008 sounds delicious, but wouldnt the tube go rubbery? you would have to cook it long enough for the heat to get to the seafood inside? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pellipeeli11 0 Posted August 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2008 gidday jewie,no the tubes dont go rubbery,remember you have to cook very (very)slow for quite a while,during this time the tubes will go rubbery and then go tender. If the tubes are rubbery yor either havnt cooked them long enough OR you have prepaired your tubes in fresh tap water not salted water,I have found this cooking process ie: very slow/long is also good for octopus cheers peelipeeli11PS another way i do squid and baby octopus is to cut the squid tubes into strips or cut the baby ocky into 4 then marinate over night, get some nice smoked bacon strips .Lay a piece of bacon out then lay merinated squid strips or ocky on top poke a skewer in and out along same then fry or bbq Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jewie 3 Posted August 23, 2008 Report Share Posted August 23, 2008 ive heard of the bacon think with strips of sting ray, meant to be alright.i always thought if squid was cooked too long that it goes tough. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ranger 48 Posted August 23, 2008 Report Share Posted August 23, 2008 i always thought if squid was cooked too long that it goes tough.Squid, like all seafood needs to be cooked very quickly on a high heat, or very slowly on a low heat. So a minute or less on high, or an hour or more on low and ya wont go wrong. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bluey68 2 Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 i had a similar recipe dished up to me by sam from sams farwestcoast fishing.He would stuff the squid tubes with fresh snapper we caught that day and bake them in tomato pasta sauce served on spaghetti.It was absolutely delicious.( R.I.P SAM ) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pellipeeli11 0 Posted September 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 gidday bluey 68thats an interesting variation ,I dont ever catch snapper but I might buy some and give it a go although when I cook seafood or my local freshwater fish and yabbies I tend not to put to much else on the plate I just pig out on the full flavor Quote Link to post Share on other sites
