Squid stuffed with pork mince and vegetables...Now this is a real treat!
I personally have never had or to be honest thought about stuffing squid but I can tell you its delicious!
This recipe is also a great idea for a dinner party! It looks great on the plate and its a good dish for sharing. An innovative surf and turf dish that will break the ice at the dinner table.
Now the actual idea of it is simple... however, I have to admit, in reality it takes some skill and patience to stuff the squid, as its a slippery little b*gger! That is however, you'll be happy to know, the hardest part!
Recipe:
- 1 Whole squid (tube/body)
- 100grams Mince Pork
- 1/4 Carrot
- 1/2 Onion
- 6 Spring Onions,
- 1 tsp Garlic
Method:
1. Add together the chopped garlic, minced pork 1/4 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp pepper and 1 tsp sugar - mix and leave for 3 minutes.
2. Thinly dice the carrot and onion and finely chop the spring onions.
3. Use 2 tbsp veg oil in a hot pan and add 1tsp garlic, fry.
4. Add the minced pork mixture, onion and carrot and cook until soft.
5. Add the spring onions and cook for another 3minutes.
6. Then stuff the squid with the mixture (be careful as it will be hot) - push the mixture right down then once full, pinch together the ends and secure by pushing toothpicks straight through the top of the squid from one side to the other.
7. Next add 2 tbsp veg oil into a hot pan and fry the squid - turning when browned - frying for approximately 3-4 minutes in total.
Finally, using scissors cut the squid into thick circles, perfect for your guests to dive in and grab a slice... with chopsticks for those feeling a little adventurous.
