This recipe for squid is ideal for your first time squid cooking for many reasons, not least of which is it's a curry so can be forgiving of mistakes as squid is not the main flavour

We didn't use lime leaves in the photos, (taken in the UK and couldn't get any) but we use them in the video shot in Thailand, it's nicer with them in. The photos for this squid curry recipe were done just after we did Pad Gapow Gung and we had a few left over tiger prawns, so Khwanjai chucked 'em in with the squid, as you do!

How to Make Squid Red Curry

Ingredients:

Serves 2
3 Medium size Squid
(we added a few left over tiger prawns, see Jules's blurb above)
2 Long Beans or 4 Green Beans
2 Thai Red Chillies
1 1/2 tbs Oil
1/2 tbs Red Curry Paste
3 Kaffir Lime leaves
1 tbs Fish Sauce
2 tbs Oyster Sauce
1/2 ts Sugar
2 tbs water

Preparation:

Wash and cut the squid into bite sized pieces, (Super Top Tip in the video to ensure you squid remains soft and doesn't go rubbery)

Cut long/green beans and slice the Thai chillies leave together

Cooking:

Turn on medium/high heat and pour oil in to the wok

Add red curry paste, stir until you get a lovely rich aroma (less than a minute)

Add the squid stir (about 1 minute)

Add fish sauce, oyster sauce, sugar and a little water if needed and mix in together (see video)

Add long/green beans and Thai chillies, stir fry for about 1 minute and taste test and adjust to suit, turn off heat

At this point you can add more of the sauces, sugar or water to adjust the flavour to suit yourself

serving Suggestions:

Lightly pack a bowl of hot jasmine rice and invert onto a plate, serve the squid and red curry along side and voila! Great with our Thai Chicken Soup Recipe or maybe you'd fancy our Chicken and Bean Sprout Stir Fry Recipe to compliment the spicy rich flavoured Fried Squid Recipes. For a change to plain rice why not try our Egg Fried Rice Recipe or staying with seafood, how about our Shrimp Fried Rice Recipe
