Rice Salad With Calamari
- 1 cup brown rice
- 1 lb whole raw squid
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- juice of 1/2 lemon
- 1 tbsp fresh ginger, minced
- 1/2 tsp bouillon paste or anchovy paste
- 5 large mushrooms, chopped
- 1 bunch scallions, chopped
- 1 cup frozen edamame beans
- salt to taste
- Cook brown rice as usual.
- Boil the edamame beans until they are soft. Use just the beans, not the kind in the pods.
- Slice the squid bodies crosswise so they come out as circles. The tentacles can be cooked whole. I do not recommend using frozen squid for this recipe.
- In a large pan, heat the olive oil. Add the the ginger, scallions, squid and bouillon or anchovy paste. Saute for about 1 minute. Add mushrooms and lemon juice. Saute for about another 3 minutes, until the squid is cooked through (it will go from slightly translucent to fully opaque). Do not overcook the squid!
- Toss with rice and edamame, salt to taste.
