Ingredients needed 2 servings
Recipe
Cooking tips
- Briefly blanching the squid with soju for 1 minute removes the fishy smell and prevents oil splattering from excess moisture during frying.
- Using pinecone-cut squid allows the batter and breadcrumbs to fill the intricate cuts, resulting in a crunchier texture than regular squid.
- The key is to fry quickly until the breadcrumbs are golden and the cheese inside is just lightly melted, to prevent the cheese from leaking out.
Recommended for
- Those who want a crispy, savory, upscale pub-style snack that goes well with beer or highballs.
- Those who want to enjoy the combination of crispy exterior, gooey cheese, and chewy squid.
- Those who want to try a unique and visually impressive fried dish instead of regular squid.
