Steamed Squid Patties

Ingredients

Chicken Egg - 1 piece
White bread - 2 pieces
Milk - 4 fl oz
Onion - ½ piece
Breadcrumbs - to taste
Salt - to taste
White Pepper (whole) - to taste

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Remove the quill from the squid, blanch, and clean off the membranes. Pass the cleaned bodies through a meat grinder with a fine mesh or chop them in a food processor. Finely chop the onion and sauté in oil until translucent.

Step 2

Add the egg, onion, and season with salt and ground white pepper to the minced squid.

Step 3

Cut the crusts off the bread slices and soak them in milk. Once the bread softens, squeeze it out and add it to the minced squid mixture, mixing well.

Step 4

With damp hands, form a round patty slightly larger than a walnut.

Step 5

Grease the tray (or another container) of the steamer with vegetable oil. Steam for 15 to 25 minutes. Arrange the cooked patties on plates and serve with soy sauce.
