How to make spicy squid to whet your appetite in the hot summer

The hot summer and dry weather have reduced your appetite? Even your favorite squid seems to be gone. At this time, you need a spicy squid to whet your appetite instantly. Eating and sweating in the hot summer is the true meaning of spicy food.

1: Ingredients needed: 300 grams of squid tentacles; 10 garlic sprouts; 5-6 dried red peppers; 10 grams of green onions; 10 grams of ginger.

2: Wash the garlic sprouts, place them on a chopping board to drain excess water, and then cut them into 3cm long segments with a knife. Soak the dried red peppers in clean hot water for 10-15 minutes. Use scissors to cut the soaked peppers into 1cm wide segments. Cut the green onions and ginger into slices and set aside.

3: Pour corn starch, flour and a little salt into a large bowl. Pour in an appropriate amount of clean water and mix well until the batter becomes a paste. Wash the squid tentacles, then cut them into 5cm long segments and set aside to drain the water. Put the squid tentacles in the batter prepared in step 6 and fry them in hot oil.

4: After the batter on the surface of the squid tentacles is set, turn off the heat, remove and filter the oil. Leave some oil in the pan, add green onions, ginger and chili peppers and stir-fry until fragrant. Add the garlic sprouts, stir-fry briefly for a few times, then add salt to taste. Finally, pour in the squid tentacles that were fried in step 9, stir-fry for a few times over high heat and turn off the heat. The spicy and crispy squid tentacles are ready!

5: Tips: This dish is stir-fried over high heat. Before stir-frying, you can soak the chilies in hot water for 10-15 minutes. This will prevent them from getting burnt, and the color and taste will be better than using dried chilies directly.

6: The batter used to wrap the squid tentacles is mainly made of corn starch, and the fried things are crispy. In order to increase some stickiness, a little flour is added to it.

If you have no appetite for any food, making a plate of spicy squid tentacles at this time will greatly increase your appetite, and the more you eat, the more delicious it will be. If you have a bad stomach, don't eat spicy food, so as not to cause stomach discomfort, constipation and other adverse consequences. People with acne on their faces are also not suitable for eating spicy food.
