Ingredients
- 2 pounds squid
- 4 cloves garlic, peeled and chopped
- ½ cup vinegar
- ½ cup water
- 1 bay leaf
- salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon canola oil
- 1 onion, peeled and sliced thinly
- 1 thumb-sized ginger, peeled and julienned
- 2 large Roma tomatoes, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fish sauce
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 2 Thai chili peppers, stemmed and minced
Instructions
- Holding the squid firmly, pull the head from the body including internal parts and tentacles. Pull out the clear cartilage inside the tube and discard.
- Under cold running water, wash the inside and out to remove any debris or excess ink. Drain well and pat dry.
- In a pot over medium heat, combine squid, 2 cloves of the garlic, vinegar, water, and the bay leaf. Bring to a boil, uncovered and without stirring, for about 3 to 5 minutes or just until squid changes color. Remove from heat and drain, reserving about 1 cup of the liquid.
- In a pot over medium heat, heat oil. Add onions, ginger, the remaining ½ of the garlic. Cook until softened.
- Add tomatoes and cook, mashing with the back of a spoon, until softened.
- Add fish sauce and cook for about 1 minute.
- Add coconut milk, reserved liquid, and chili peppers. Bring to a simmer and continue cook until liquid is reduced and begins to render fat.
- Add squid and cook for about 3 to 5 minutes or until heated through.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot.
Notes
- To keep the dish from turning black, you can peel the squid skin and discard the cephalopod ink before cooking.
- Allow the vinegar to boil uncovered and without stirring to cook off the strong acid taste.
