Marinating squid rings

How to prepare squid rings?

You can marinate the squid first to keep them soft during frying.

And afterwards fry on the plancha or in a hot pan.

This preparation is very simple and blissfully delicious!

I usually add a little chorizo. That adds some spice to this recipe!

1. Mix the olive oil, lemon juice and sel fou n°2 and pour the marinade over the squid rings.
2. Add the finely chopped onion
3. Leave to marinate for 1 hour
4. Cut the chorizo into small pieces
5. Heat the plancha and let the squid rings fry on the hot plate for 5 min.
6. Add the chorizo and cook for another 1 min.
7. Serve with fried new potatoes and a fresh salad or other vegetables.

How to serve marinated squid rings?

Marinated squid rings can be served in different ways. Here are some ideas:

• As an appetiser: Serve the marinated squid rings on a plate with some lemon wedges on the side. Garnish with some fresh parsley. This is a simple and classic way to serve them.
• As part of a salad: Add the marinated squid rings to a fresh salad. Combine them with slices of cucumber, cherry tomatoes, red onion and feta, for example. Serve with a light dressing such as lemon-olive oil dressing.
• In a wrap: Roll the marinated squid rings in a warm tortilla along with fresh vegetables such as lettuce, tomato, cucumber and onion. Add some garlic sauce or another favourite dressing. This makes a delicious and light meal.
• As part of a tapas board: Serve the marinated squid rings along with other small dishes such as olives, Spanish ham, cheese and grilled vegetables. This is a fun and tasty way to serve them during drinks or as part of a party.
• Baked in batter: If you like a more crunchy texture, you can run the marinated squid rings through a fluffy batter and then deep-fry until golden brown and crispy. Serve them with some tartar sauce or a spicy dip.
