Answer 1

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 5 minutes

Total Time: 15 minutes

Yield: SERVES 2

Ingredients:



SERVES 2 as a main entree, 4 as an appetizer

1/2 to 3/4 lb. cleaned/prepared calamari tubes, or enough for 2 people, fresh or frozen

1/2 tsp. ground white pepper (available in most spice aisles)

1/2 tsp. sea salt or regular salt

1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper

1/4 to 1/2 tsp. chili flakes, to taste

1 tsp. garlic powder

1/2 tsp. onion powder or onion salt

1 Tbsp. coconut oil (or other vegetable oil)

1/2 lime, sliced into wedges

optional: 1 Tbsp. fish sauce, to taste

optional garnish: 1/4 cup fresh coriander, lightly chopped

Thai Sweet Chili Sauce for dipping (available at most supermarkets)



Preparation:



Using a knife, cut open the calamari tubes so that they lie flat.

Rinse the calamari and place on a tea towel or absorbent paper. Pat them dry. Dry them as well as possible, otherwise the spice mixture won't stick. Cut the calamari lengthwise into strips (approx. 1 inch wide), and place in a mixing bowl.

Drizzle the oil over the calamari and stir, ensuring all surfaces are covered. Mix the dry spices together in a cup or small bowl, then sprinkle over the oiled calamari. Toss until all the calamari strips are coated in the spices. Set aside to marinate while you heat up the grill.

Lightly brush your grill with oil, then cook the calamari until edges curl up (some strips may curl completely into a circle) - this only takes 2-3 minutes per side, depending on the heat of your grill. Cooking tips: You want the calamari to be lightly browned and chewy, but not rubbery, so try not to overcook it. If your grill bars are too wide (so that the calamari might fall through), use a fish cage or place a piece of banana leaf (or foil) over the grill surface and cook over it.

Place the calamari on a serving platter (if desired, over a bed of baby greens). Cut the 1/2 lime into wedges and squeeze over. Taste-test the calamari. If not salty enough, sprinkle over a little fish sauce or more salt. If too salty for your taste, add more fresh-squeezed lime juice. Add a final sprinkling of fresh coriander.

Serve with Thai Sweet Chili Sauce for dipping. Note that this dish can be served over salad or with rice for a complete meal. ENJOY!



To pan-fry the calamari indoors: Heat up your wok or frying pan (place the dry pan over medium-high heat for at least 1 minute). Add about 1 Tbsp. oil and swirl around, then add the calamari. Turn the heat down to medium and pan-fry 1-2 minutes per side, or until the calamari is lightly browned and curls up around the edges. Again, don't overcook, or it will no longer be tender. Serve as instructed above, and enjoy!









This is the best i could find...soryy

Answer 2

I'll do a little search..but the fact is that I have already searched for this and I haven't had luck. The marinated, baby squid served at sushi bars is just so good..and I haven't managed to master it yet.



It's similar to trying to nail down the recipe for the perfect Ceviche..most/all depends of the type of fish or shellfish used..and some people just refuse to give up their secrets when it comes to Ceviche or marinated baby squid for some reason.



If you have a Ralph's Grocery Store near-by, their sushi chef makes an awesome marinated baby squid and perhaps you could beg/plead/threaten/cajole him out of it. Most Ralph's have the fresh sushi section, and it's universally good, no matter which one you go to. Other than that..starting up a friendship with your favorite sushi chef might help.

Squid with Ginger/Soy Sauce marinade:



-1/2 cup soy sauce

-2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger

-3 tablespoons mirin

-1 lb small or baby Squid, cleaned



Mix ingredients (reserve 1/2 cup)

submerge Squid.



Marinate Squid for at least 10 mins. at room temperature, turning once.



Either skewer and grill for 4 minutes or cook on grill heated to hot..adding additional marinade.



I know that's not it..because you want the Squid that's prepared in more of a Ceviche sort of way, but like I said; it's hard to find.



EDIT

Great looking recipe above, btw.





But this is hilarious, since there are literally hundreds, if not 1000's of squid salad and calamari salad recipes out there..however..none that I've seen so far fit the bill. Just so I know we're on the same page:



Are you talking about baby squid (body no bigger than a thimble/tentacles no longer than 1 1/2 inches)..tiny. teensy-tiny. Bright red. Not bright red due to a bright red sauce (ala sweet & sour chicken from a Cantonese restaurant)..I'm talking about baby squid that have turned bright red. Obviously marinated with an acid (thinking Saki, possibly lime juice, sesame oil, scallions, sweet onion, soy sauce..but NOT cooked). No actual BBQ sauce applied at all. Baby squid appears to be marinated (ala Ceviche) and only cooked in the juices..right? Is that it?



Don't know if this image link will even work, but this is the closest image I could find of what I am describing..except it doesn't look red enough in this photo. This is a Japanese restaurant photo, btw.



Edit in and say if this is it or not.
