Main Ingredients

  • 1 Dried squid or filefish, frozen (or desired amount)
  • A little cooking oil (optional)

Cooking Instructions

Step 1

Take out the dried squid or filefish from the freezer and let it thaw. Once fully thawed, pat it dry thoroughly with paper towels. Drying the squid is key for a delicious grilled texture.

Step 1

Step 2

On the body of the squid or filefish, make diagonal cuts about 1 cm apart using scissors or a knife. This helps the marinade penetrate better, makes the squid look appealing when cooked, and results in a more tender bite.

Step 2

Step 3

Place the prepared squid or filefish onto a heated pan or grill. Grill it until it’s nicely browned to your preference. Flip it occasionally to prevent burning. Adding a little cooking oil can enhance the savory flavor (optional).

Step 3

Step 4

Once the squid or filefish is well-grilled and golden brown, let it cool slightly. Then, tear or cut it into bite-sized pieces (about 2-3 cm). The chewy texture is a highlight!

Step 5

Now, let’s make the mayonnaise-soy sauce dip! In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise, 0.5 tablespoon of sugar, 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, and 1 tablespoon of cooking wine. If you like a bit of spice, stir in 1 teaspoon of minced Cheongyang chili pepper. Mix everything well until smooth and well combined.

Step 5

Step 6

Dip the deliciously grilled squid or filefish into the prepared mayonnaise-soy sauce dip. Even with simple ingredients, this sauce adds a wonderfully rich flavor. It’s perfect as a casual snack or an excellent accompaniment to drinks, so be sure to give it a try!
