| Prepared Squid |
I sallow fried the squid in enough oil to cover them once they were placed in the wok. I cooked these in small batches for about 30 to 40 seconds each time. I removed them and placed them in an oven proof dish and put them in the oven to keep warm on 120C until they are all cooked.
I served these with some sweet chilli sauce. My children are my biggest critics but these were a big hit.
