Comments

The squid can be cooked on a griddle pan, in a wok or on a barbecue.

Ingredients

 

1kg squid, trimmed and gutted
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
400g tin of cannellini beans
1-2 fresh red and green chillies, sliced

 

2 good handfuls of rocket
Juice of 2 limes or 1 lemon
Olive oil
Extra virgin olive oil

Method

 

Score the squid lightly in a crisscross fashion. Set it to one side while you get a griddle pan very very hot. Season the squid lightly just before cooking, then add it to the pan. After a minute it should be nicely charred, so turn it over and cook for a further minute then remove it and put it aside.

Heat up the cannellini beans and sprinkle them into a bowl. Add the sliced chillies to the bowl with the rocket, lime or lemon juice and olive oil, and season, Cut the squid at irregular angles and toss it in with the rest of the ingredients. A good drizzle of extra virgin olive oil over the top will finish it off nicely.
