pomelo squid salad

a bowl of pomelo squid salad


what i love about being here in manila is i get to cook. cooking isn't really my passion but when i'm here it becomes a ngipirt. first of all the kitchen's nice. second, there's always something in the pantry. third, there's nobody else to prepare the food. so a couple of days back, we had this >>> pomelo squid salad. sounds familiar? scroll down and read the post filipino food festival @ the marco polo. i blabbed about this dish being my favorite. 


disclaimer: i made this pomelo squid salad based on how i remember the taste. i really didn't know what was in that bowl except the obvious ingredients, pomelo and squid. after two pomelo squid salad bowls prepared, here's what i think are the ingredients. *nuuk*


ingredients:

pomelo
dried squid
salt
vinegar
pepper


peel and prepare your pomelo so it looks like this. :-) 
if the pomelo is too ripe, it'll be more difficult to prepare. 
and the salad will be too watery. 



fry dried squid until golden brown. be sure it's not overcooked.
a good frying time is less than a minute in a hot pan. 




 cut the squid into strips. 
don't include the little martian squid heads.

mix 'em all together in bowl. 
use the rest of the ingredients to taste.
