Hi there , i felt that i should contribute to this community. Here are some recipes that I have that my grandma and mum passed down to me



first of the recipe instalment is Fried Tamarind Squids



You need:



1) 2 squids cleaned up and sliced into 1 inch thick slices

2)1 packet of tamarind

3)2 tablespoons of caster sugar

4)1 teaspoon of salt

5)1 teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper



6)peanut oil



Garnish:

1)Roughly chopped garlic

2)Coriander



Step 1:



Seperate tamarind seed from pulp , keep the pulp



Step 2 :

Marinade the squid with the pulp, caster sugar,black pepper and salt together , leave it aside for about 1/2 to 1hr



Step 3 :

Deep fry the roughly chopped garlic till it's golden brown then take out and drain



Step 4:

heat up a pan/wok , heat up a teaspoon of peanut oil, then throw the marinated squid in , stir fry on a medium flame, remember to constantly toss the squids as the tamarind pulp would burn and turn bitter,fry till squid immediately turns white.



Step 5:

Dish it up and apply garlic crisps and coriander to garnish



Goes well with beer or some rum .
