Dreaming of summer

Hi everyone

I love sitting in the sun enjoying an alfresco feast of little plates of food. One of my favourites is calamari. I admit it took a while as Id been blessed like so many with the rubber tubes called squid rings at the local takeaway when I was growing up. 

Heres a simple recipe I use. 

Ingredients

2 squid tubes cleaned and cut into rings. 
1/2 teaspoon of rock salt, crushed
25 g clarified butter
2 cloves of garlic crushed
2 spring onions diced
1 tablespoons chopped parsley
2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese (optional)


Sprinkle the salt over the squid.

Heat the butter in a large frying pan. Add garlic, onions and parsley and cook for 30 seconds. Add squid and stir for 1-2 minutes. DONT overcook unless you like eating tires.

You can then either sprinkle the cheese over and grill for 20 to 30 seconds or just eat as is with a side of aioli (capsicum aioli yummy!)

Its as easy as that. Enjoy xx
