Frozen Squid recipes please!!
Currently in France & it was very cheap & low calorie & low fat, so bought it, so now got a bag in the freezer!!
All recipe books at home & not cooked it before, but family likes it in restaurants,
Can anyone help?
P.S. It's a normal bag of pre-cleaned 'body' shells, so don't need to clean it.

The kids love it (Dadday presented it as suiddly diddly ...).
I just cook it sliced in rings with onions/tomatoes on slow heat.
DOn't overcook it or cook on high as it gets tough.
Also very nice added to a fishy risotto.I lost my job as a cricket commentator for saying “I don’t want to bore you with the details”.Milton Jones0 -
Hi se999
Hope your having a great time!
I normally cook squid after defrosting it...just to make sure..lol. Normally try and buy/cook fresh same day.
I would mix a light runny batter & dip squid and fry. Serve with salad and lemon juice/mayo and fresh bread. Or you could just cover in flour and gently fry. I love it with salad, chips/new pots etc. You could also serve in a stirfry. Ive also made a pate with squid and prawns and served on french melba toast or normal toast. I do season my squid well-especially if it has been frozen. You could also put in an omellete (sorry spelt wrongly!), or serve with scrambled eggs in place of salmon.
I like my squid crispy but many like it softly cooked.
Hope it works out OK. Enjoy the rest of your hols...im dead jealous :rolleyes:

Thanks for the replies.
Tried it tonight with onion, garlic, tomatoes and red pepper, served with pasta and a green salad plus homemade dressing. It all vanished quickly, so to be tried again.
Not actually on holiday, needed to rent somewhere cheaply for 2 months, UK was exhorbitant so I'm an international moneysaver here in France. Even using my french money saving vouchers & looking for promos and bogofs in the supermarkets, applying for my first French loyaltycard at the supermarket on monday - hope the French is good enough!!!0
