Ingredients
  • 4 squid weighing about 250g/9oz each
  • cleaned
  • 1 lemon

  • good pinch cumin
  • pinch sea salt
  • olive oil
  • 1 garlic clove
  • pasted
  • ½ handful of fresh coriander
  • chopped
Directions
  • Take the prepared squid
  • make a cut down one side of the body tube and open it. If you have had to use chunks of a large squid
  • then just lightly score the inside of the flesh
  • which will help tenderise it.
  • Mix the lemon zest
  • cumin
  • sea salt
  • garlic and olive oil and rub into the squid and leave to marinate for a minimum of two hours in the fridge.
  • Heat your grill plate until white patches start to appear.
  • Remove the squid from the marinade and grill either side for no more than two minutes to ensure that you get those lovely black grill lines across the flesh.
  • Push the squid down with the back of a fish slice and do the same with the tentacles.
  • Take the squid off the hot grill and serve on a plate with a sprinkling of sea salt
  • juice of the lemon and sprinkling of fresh chopped coriander. Serve with a mixed green salad.
