Spiced Amberalla on Squid Ring Salad
Published in Serendib Sept - Oct 2005
This wonderful, subtly spiced signature dish from The Saffron at the Trans Asia Hotel demonstrates that spice is the king of all tantalizers.
 
Ingredients
1. 300 g squid
2. 4 amberella (or cooking apples)
3. 2 tsp ground mustard
4. 20 ml vinegar
5. 1 tsp salt
6. Pinch of black pepper
7. Pinch of red chili
 
Serves 4
Method
1. Cut squid into rings and wash.
2. Place water in a pan at medium heat and quickly boil the squid.
3. Once cooked, remove from fire; dip in ice water and strain.
4. Peal amberalla (or cooking apple) and cut into slices.
5. Blend mustard and vinegar to a paste and set aside in a bowl.
6.

Mix amberalla with the rest of ingredients and season to taste.

7. Place the salad in the center of a platter and arrange the boiled squid rings around, garnish with fresh coriander and serve.
   
Note:
Cooking apples can be used instead of the fruit amberella.
