Ingredients:

  • 3/4 kg squid
  • 1/2 cup soy sauce
  • 1/2 cup vinegar
  • 1 tsp brown sugar
  • garlic chopped
  • onions chopped
  • ginger sliced into strips
  • chilies (number will depend on how spicy you want)
  • ground pepper
ingredients
 

Steps:

  1. Clean and wash squid thoroughly. You can either choose to remove the skin or not. For bigger sizes of squid, slice them into rings. For the small ones, you can just cut them into half. Some choose not to remove the ink inside as it still taste awesome. The squid flavor is stronger with it. So after slicing the squid wash it again and place in a strainer to drain excess water. Squid naturally releases water while it's being cooked.
