you
must
be
familiar
with
one
of
the
most
popular
dishes
on
the
menu
–
calamari.
Calamari,
also
known
as
squid,
can
be
prepared
in
various
ways,
but
one
of
the
most
delicious
and
simple
ways
to
cook
it
is
by
sautéing
or
stir-frying
it
in
a
pan.
This
dish,
called
"Chao
Youyu"
in
Chinese,
is
easy
to
prepare
yet
very
satisfying. To
start,
you
will
need
fresh
calamari,
which
is
available
in
most
seafood
markets.
Clean
the
squid
thoroughly,
remove
the
head,
and
cut
it
into
bite-sized
pieces.
You
can
use
the
tentacles
too
if
you
like.
Then,
season
the
calamari
with
salt,
pepper,
and
some
cornstarch.
Set
it
aside
for
ten
to
fifteen
minutes,
allowing
the
flavors
to
penetrate
into
the
squid. Next,
heat
some
oil
in
a
wok
or
a
frying
pan
over
high
heat.
When
the
oil
is
hot,
add
the
garlic
and
stir
fry
it
until
fragrant.
Then,
add
the
calamari
and
continue
sautéing
for
two
to
three
minutes.
Avoid
overcooking
the
squid
as
it
can
become
tough
and
chewy.
Once
the
calamari
turns
golden
and
slightly
crispy,
add
scallions
and
red
chili
peppers.
Stir
it
quickly,
and
voila!
Your
dish
is
ready. This
dish
can
be
served
as
a
main
course
dish
with
rice
or
noodles
on
the
side.
It
can
also
be
served
as
an
appetizer
with
some
dipping
sauce,
such
as
sweet
chili
sauce
or
soy
sauce
with
lime
juice. Apart
from
its
great
taste,
calamari
is
low
in
calories
and
high
in
protein,
making
it
a
healthy
addition
to
your
diet.
It
is
also
rich
in
vitamins
and
minerals,
such
as
vitamin
B12
and
selenium.
However,
people
with
shellfish
allergies
should
avoid
eating
calamari. In
