Wagamama Chilli Squid Recipe
Make this Straight-From-the-Restaurant Wagamama Chilli Squid Recipe at home and your Chilli Squid will taste just like Wagamama.
Yield: 2 Appetizers or Side Dishes
Ingredients
- Wagamama Spicy Vinegar Sauce (See Box Below for this Recipe)
- 8 ounces Squid body only, fresh or frozen, thawed
- 2 ounces Corn Flour or Corn Meal
- 6 ounces Vegetable Oil
- 1 teaspoon Shichimi Powder (Find in Japanese and Asian Markets, the spice aisle of larger Supermarkets or Online)
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- Prepare Wagamama Spicy Vinegar Sauce according to the recipe in the Box below. Set aside.
- Wash squid under cold water. Place on a paper towel-covered plate to drain. Allow to dry thoroughly before frying to ensure crispy results.
- Cut off tough bottom and top of squid tube.
- Cut squid tube open and lay flat, inside up, on your cutting board. Remove any bits of skin or boney bits left on inside.
- Score the squid with light cuts, not all the way through, with lines about 1/4 inch apart. Turn the squid 1/4 turn and score again on this direction creating a diamond or pineapple pattern
- Cut tube in 1/2 then slice into 1/2 to 3/4-inch wide strips.
- Repeat with remaining squid tubes until all are done. Set aside.
- Pour vegetable oil into large skillet.
- Place skillet over medium heat.
- While oil is heating, place corn flour in a medium bowl.
- Place prepared squid sticks into corn flour. Toss well until squid is fully covered with flour.
- When oil is hot and shimmering, carefully place floured squid into hot oil a few at a time. You can fry quite a few, but do not crowd so much you cannot stir them. Fry for about 2 minutes, stirring so they do not stick together, until pale golden. Do not overcook or the squid will become tough and rubbery. Remove with a slotted spoon or spider strainer to a large bowl.
- Continue until all squid are fried.
- Sprinkle with a bit of shichimi powder and salt as you gently toss the squid. Continue to sprinkle and toss until all shichimi powder and salt are used.
- Taste. Add more shichimi powder and/or salt, if desired.
- Serve hot with Wagamama Spicy Vinegar Sauce in a bowl on the side for dipping.
