What's your favourite squid recipe?


Recommended Posts

Your FIL's recipe sounds tasty FROSTONE1.

 

I ended up cooking the pasta dish, which turned out amazing. I used onion, garlic, tomatoes, chilli, wine, chicken stock and a small amount of fresh herbs. Mixed it through fettuccine and chucked a bit of Parmesan and parsley on top. Put me in the good books! Gonna prep the rest as calamari dusted in a mild curry powder, flour and S&P.

S&P. Hands down :worthy: . The Holy Grail of squid dishes, when done properly.

  • using opened tubes, cross cut with a knife & and pat dry.
  • roll in spiced corn flour, dip in beaten egg whites and then flour again.
  • deep fry!

Spice mix something along the lines of: salt, black & sezchuan peppers, garlic, onion & chilli powders, Chinese 5spice........ 

 

A lot of work but major nom noms :wub:

 

The Old Lady's ordered this for Xmas entree ......bagged 6 squid last Saturday (y). I'll just have to go easy on the margaritas if I'm deep frying squid only :blink: .

G'day

I must try that recipe again, I didn't have all the ingrediants to do it properly but looks good.

So far though I can't beat crumbed and deep fried, but usually done in a pan and turn over.  We usually soak the squid in milk.

Apron and safety glasses advisable.  Any tips on minimising that spitting?

Cheers

Lads, for something a bit different I made stuffed tubes using a bruschetta mix and the tentacles. Bruschetta mix:

- Punnet of grape tomatoes halved lengthways,

- Half a red onion chopped,

- Firm unmarinaded danish feta cubed or crumbled,

- Fresh basil leaves, roughly torn;

- 1 clove garlic, minced or finely chopped;

- Tentacles from squid, fried and chopped,

- Sliced, pitted kalamata olives (optional).

Mix all that together, bung it in the tubes, shut the ends with toothpicks, and grill them on the BBQ. Drizzle w balsamic cream. Turned out a treat for a recipe I made up on the fly!
