Croatian Squid Salad


This one was made after watching a documentary on a hotel's monthly-menu effort. The hotel (can't remember the name, twas in Australia) hired a Croatian chef to train, prepare & oversee Croatian dishes made for a month there. Not bad i would say. Very simple. You may add other veggies or salads to eat them with.

  • 7-8 squids (medium size) & cleaned
  • 3-4 cups of breadcrumbs
  • about a bulb of garlic (chopped/minced)
  • some chopped cilantro
  • some olive oil
  • 7-8 toothpicks
  • broccoli florets - optional
  • cauliflower florets - optional
  1. mix the breadcrumbs with chopped garlic & cilantro
  2. fill each squid with the mixture, cap it with its head & fastened with a toothpick (to prevent the content from falling out while grilling).
  3. put the squids in a container & pour leftover breadcrumb mixture on top.
  4. drizzle the squids with some olive oil & leave them in the fridge to marinate.
  5. Grill in the oven for abt 8-10 minutes
  6. When done, slice the squids & mix them with steamed broccoli & cauliflower florets.
mixed with Italian herbs & black pepper
