Ingredients
Squid 500 g
Ginger 1 piece
Spring onions 100 g
Red chillies 5 piece
Garlic 1 bulb
Limes 1 piece
Implementation Steps
01
- Wash the squid in water mixed with a little white liquor to reduce the fishy smell.
- Cut the squid into rings (or leave it whole, but score the body).
- Marinate the squid with 1 tablespoon of seasoning powder, fish sauce and 1/2 tablespoon of MSG for about 25 minutes so it absorbs the flavour.
02
Wash all the ingredients:
- Peel the ginger and divide it into 3 parts: cut 2/3 into fine shreds and leave 1/3 whole.
- Cut the spring onions into lengths.
- Halve 3 of the red chillies, deseed and shred them; leave 2 whole.
- Squeeze the limes for their juice.
03
- Once the squid has absorbed the seasoning, mix it with the ginger, shredded chillies and spring onions.
- Put it in a steamer and steam for about 10 minutes until the squid is cooked (don't steam it too long or it will lose its bite).
- Arrange the squid nicely on a plate.
04
DIPPING SAUCE:
- Put 3 red chillies, a little ginger and 2 tablespoons of sugar in a mortar and pound until smooth.
- Transfer to a bowl and stir in 2 tablespoons of lime juice and 4 tablespoons of fish sauce.
Now it's ready to eat.
