Salted Egg Fried Squid

I remember last time when we had dinner with couple of friends in Bangi, we went to these restaurant called Red Wok. Quite famous with the Chinese Muslim dishes. And one of the dishes that makes me want to frequent my trip there is their famous Salted Egg Fried Squid. I browsed the internet and came across this recipe from Resepiuntuksayang blogspot. It looks simple though I need to steam the salted egg yolks but since I bought this new steamer from Tupperware, I have been thinking ways to make use of it. The steamer is quite small hence my options are limited. Even for fish, I can only steam fish cutlet instead the whole fish.

Red Steamer from Tupperware

These are the ingredients but I didn't follow exactly from the blogger.

Ingredients :

5 healthy large squid - clean, wash and cut into rings or whatever size you desire
2 stalk of curry leaves - just take the leaves
5 bird eye chillies - cut into small pieces
4 garlics - diced it
2 tbs evaporated milk
2 salted egg yolks - steamed for 5 min then mashed it
butter
eggs - beaten
Premix Fried Chicken flour - or any flavored flour for frying
salt
white pepper


Step 1 :
Blanch the squid
Dip the squid in the eggs then coat it with the Premix fried chicken flour. Then deep fry it
Put aside once all the squids have been deep fried

Step 2 :
Melt the butter in a wok
Sautee the garlic, bird eye chillies and curry leaves
Combine the steamed salted egg yolks
Add in some white pepper and salt to taste
Add in the evaporated milk until it bubbles up then combine the deep fried squid.
Make sure the sauce covers all the squid.

Wallaaaahhhh ready to eat.



That's the last portion I managed to save so that I could snap the picture. I'm really bad at taking picture. Whatever it is the family loves it.
