Squid is a tasty fish and tastes entirely different from other fish. Good thing about squid is that it cooks fast so while cooking stop at the right stage before it becomes rubbery. This is an easy to prepare dish in minutes and tastes heavenly. With Rice and Rasam it is a Finger licking dish.
All Squid preparations are my family favorite. You can cut squid into rings and also prepare this dish. If you cut into small cubes the masalas enter into the fish because of more surface area. This dish will be ready in 5- 10 minutes.
INGREDIENTS:
Squid, cubes or rings- 250 grams (1-1½ cup)
PROCEDURE:
