Method
STEP 1Score I&J Squid Tubes gently with a knife to create a criss-cross pattern. Slice tubes into 2.5cm x 5cm strips.
STEP 2
Combine flour, pepper, and chilli flakes. Toss squid strips in flour mixture to coat. Shake off excess flour and set aside.
STEP 3
Heat vegetable oil in a large frypan over high heat. Add ½ the squid strips and cook for 1 minute on each side. Repeat with remaining squid. Drain on absorbent paper.
STEP 4
Assemble salad by topping rocket with asparagus, pomegranate seeds and cooked squid.
STEP 5
Combine olive oil, vinegar and honey in a screw top jar to make dressing. Shake well. Drizzle salad with dressing and serve.
Tips
To create curled squid strips, using a sharp knife, deeply score squid without cutting all the way through.
