I did it the stir fried way and the squid turned out really tender. It's definitely a unique way of cooking squid and I am pleasantly surprised. Perhaps the fact that I skipped the peanut oil and the fish sauce dip didnt quite bring out the authentic flavour this dish is supposed to have. Still this dish is bad at all. Thanks!

This dish is full of flavour. You didn't specify the type of sugar so I used brown sugar. I didn't have coriander leaves so I cooked "Recipe #71237" as a side dish. I didn't charcoal grill this recipe as we have fire restrictions in our area during summer. So I placed the whole mixture in a non-stick pan and cooked them for about 4 mins. Delicious. Thank you EA.
