Ingredients

Servings

For the squid:

  • 700 g baby squid 25 oz, or
  • 1 scallions green or spring onions, bunch
  • 1 yellow chili pepper small or 1/2 medium sized
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil plus more for frying
  • lemon juice of 1

For the chili dip:

  • 100 g cream cheese 3.5 oz, or
  • 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt
  • 1 yellow chili pepper small or 1/2 medium sized
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • salt
  • black pepper

To serve:

  • ciabatta bread
  • 4 lemon wedges
  • olive oil

Instructions

  1. First, make the dip: chop the chilli pepper and garlic and mix it with cream cheese, yogurt and lemon juice. Season it with salt and pepper.
  2. Chop the scallions and the chilli pepper.
  3. Sprinkle a pinch of salt and ground pepper on your squids and mix it all together.
  4. Heat the olive oil in a frying pan over a medium heat. Add chopped chilli and fry for 2 minutes. Turn the heat up.
  5. Add the squids and fry for a few minutes (maximum 5), turn them over from time to time, until they firm up and the inside becomes white. It's very easy to overcook squid, so don't miss the moment. Remove from the heat.
  6. In a small bowl, mix the lemon juice with 2 tablespoons olive oil and drizzle over your squid. Season to taste. Serve with lemon wedges, chili dip and ciabatta bread. Enjoy!
