Bahan

• 1 kg large squid (app. 6-8 inches long)
• 5 cloves garlic - crunched finely
• 2 tbsp light soy sauce
• 1 tsp dark soy sauce
• 1 tbsp black pepper corn - pound finely
• salt , light brown sugar
• 3 tbsp honey
• 1 lime - squeezed for juice
• red chilly or capsicum- sliced thinly

• Garnishing: green union & parsley - shredded

Method

• Cut squid into 2. Use sharp scissors to cut each edges at interval of 1cm - this help each pieces to open up like flower.
  
• Season and marinate squid with all ingredients for 5 minutes.
  
• Heat the non-grease pan, work with big fire. Put in squid.( I cook the tentacle first, as it's easier to work on the flower later. Dish out cooked tentacles then put in the squid slices into hot pan).
  
• Stir evenly and turn squids to have the edges down so good petals can form up better flower.
  
• Season to your taste and ready to serve.
