Salt And Pepper Squid Or Calamari With Cucumber Salad


This dish could also be used with calamari. i have been looking for a squid/calamari dish that does not have szechuan pepper as i am unable to find it. This recipe comes from the australian womans weekly simply seafood book.

Steps


Cut squid hoods along one side and open out.
Using a small sharp knife , score inside of hoods in a diagonal pattern , without cutting all the way through.
This will allow the squid to curl during cooking.
Cut each squid hood into eight pieces.
Sprinkle squid with combined pepper , salt and lemon pepper seasoning.
Heat oil in wok or large frying pan , stir-fry squid in batches until curled and just cooked through.
Serve squid with cucumber salad.
Cucumber salad: combine cucumber , onion , tomato , nuts and mint in medium bowl.
Add combined vinegar and oil , toss to combine.
