25 Minute Crispy Thai Squid Sweet And Sour Salad Recipes

AUTHENTIC SPICY THAI SQUID SALAD RECIPE - YAM PLA-MUEK

Steps:

• Prepare the bell peppers and onions by slicing thinly. Add the bell peppers to an ice cold water bath while preparing other ingredients.
• Slice the pickled garlic cloves and set aside. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the pickled garlic juice that was part of the jar.
• Chop up the chilies, pac peow, cilantro, and green onions. Set aside.
• Score both squids by making narrow slices through the squid lengthways, careful not to cut all the way through. Turn the squid and score again to make small diamond shapes. This will allow the strips to curl up with a beautiful presentation.
• Cut the scored squid into bite size pieces, about 1 inch in length.
• Next, you'll want to blanch the squid. Put the squid in a heat safe bowl. Bring a pot of water to a boil. Ladle in the hot water from the pot to the heat safe bowl, and allow the squid to be blanched for about 30 seconds. Drain the squid, and repeat this process 2-3 times until the squid is cooked through. This method allows you to not overcook the squid. Overcooking the squid will turn it rubbery.
• Once the squid is cooked, add in the palm sugar, toasted rice powder, fish sauce, reserved pickled garlic juice, and lime juice. Stir it up.
• Add in the drained bell peppers, onion, and the rest of the herbs along with the crushed peanuts.
• For presentation, you can place the salad on a dish and surround with lots of green vegetables and herbs, adding the Thai chiles on top for a beautiful presentation of the dish.

WARM THAI SQUID AND SHRIMP SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Fold four 18-inch lengths of parchment paper in half, cut into a half-heart shape, and open. In a medium bowl, combine the onion, cucumber, tomatoes, cilantro, chile, squid, and shrimp. Divide the seafood mixture among one half of each parchment heart near the crease. Fold the other half of parchment over ingredients. Make small overlapping folds to seal edges, starting at the top of the heart. Two inches from the end, twist the parchment twice, gently but firmly, to seal.
• Place the packet on a rimmed baking sheet or in a heavy skillet (preferably cast iron), and bake 15 minutes or until fully puffed. Remove from the oven, and let sit while preparing the dressing. Whisk together the sesame oil, rice-wine vinegar, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Open the packet carefully, and transfer the mixture to a serving plate, discarding the cooking juice. Drizzle with the dressing, and serve hot or at room temperature.

THAI-STYLE SQUID AND CUCUMBER SALAD

Steps:

• Whisk lime juice, garlic, fish sauce, brown sugar, 1/4 cup oil, and 1/2 tsp. salt in a large bowl. Add cucumber, chiles, and peanuts and toss to coat. Set aside.
• Make sure squid is as dry as possible, then toss with remaining 1 1/2 tsp. salt. Separate bodies from tentacles.
• Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in a large cast-iron skillet until smoking. Sear half of the tentacles (don't try to do more than half-you don't want to crowd the pan), turning once halfway through, until lightly charred and opaque, 2-3 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with remaining tentacles, adding more oil if needed. Add a little more oil, then sear half of the bodies, turning once and picking up with tongs so that any liquid that has accumulated inside bodies can pour off into skillet and evaporate, until lightly charred and opaque, 2-3 minutes. Transfer to plate with cooked tentacles. Repeat with remaining bodies. Thinly slice bodies, then transfer squid to bowl with cucumber mixture and toss to coat.
• Arrange salad on a platter and drizzle remaining dressing over. Top with cilantro sprigs. Serve with rice alongside, if using.
