Squid for dinner

For tonight's dinner, we're having Grilled squid and sauteed squid since my father bought a fresh batch this afternoon. . Both are delicious! even ate a lot tonight.

Nothing better than freshly bought squid. I was not the one who made it but it's just really simple. You just clean the squid ( just slit the center, cook it whole ). Mix soy sauce ( just a small amount of soy sauce ), black pepper and some kalamansi and marinate it for a few minutes. . It doesn't take quite long to marinate. Then grill it on coal or on stove top, just until it's cooked properly. That's for the grilled one.

Here's a picture of the grilled squid:





Now for the sauteed squid, you just slice some onions, a bit of garlic, peppers (optional, but I prefer to have it in mine since it adds more flavor to it), salt and pepper. Slice the squid into bits and pieces not too small nor too large. . Bite size! Saute the onions, garlic and peppers, then a few minutes add the squid. For some reason, the squid will release some dark liquid, just leave it like that. It adds taste to it and you can even add a bit of water if you want and you can also reduce it for richer taste. . . 




That's how I love my fresh squid done! 

Cheers!
