Step 1 of 5
Quick Salt & Pepper Squid
Clean the squid (or ask your fishmonger to do it). Cut open the body and open out flat. Wash well and pat dry. Score the top in a criss-cross pattern with the tip of a sharp knife.
Step 2
Brush the squid with oil. Heat a barbecue or griddle pan until very hot.
Step 3
Mix together 2 tsp sea salt, the Chinese five-spice and 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper. Sprinkle over both sides of the squid just before cooking.
Step 4
Cook the squid for about 1 minute on each side until it starts to curl and char at the edges.
Step 5
Transfer to a serving plate and drizzle with sesame oil. Garnish with coriander leaves and serve with sweet chilli sauce.
