My Squid in Olive Oil & Garlic Recipe!

Last week, my mom gave me some frozen squid that I decided to cook today. I had to call my Lola and ask her how to clean the squid. It's easy to clean but there's that really yucky feeling while doing it. I survived though. LOL!!! Anyway, I made up my own yummy recipe of your average squid in Olive Oil and garlic :) You can try my recipe if you want. My husband says it's really good!:)

What you need:

6-8 pcs medium squid

10 tablespoons Olive Oil

10 cloves of garlic

2 tablespoons vinegar

a pinch of salt (to taste)

1 tablespoon Oyster Sauce (only if you want to add this)

1 tablespoon brown sugar (again, only if you want a sweet taste)

Crush the garlic then marinade it in the olive oil and salt for about 15-20 minutes. While it's marinating, you can boil the squid in the vinegar. It will take about 5-10 minutes on medium heat. Remove the squid from the vinegar and set aside. Throw away the vinegar and then clean the pan. Get the olive oil, garlic and salt marinade and fry the garlic until it turns brown then add the squid. After about 5 minutes, taste it, if it's okay, then you're good to go. Some people like it as simple as that but I wanted it to be a bit sweet so I added brown sugar and some oyster sauce.:)

Serve with white or brown rice!

I LOVE RMK! :)

I love make up!!! I love all kinds just as long as they don't irritate my skin. I'd have to say that RMK is the BEST make up for me! Even if I have it on all day and night (most of the time 20-24 hours during taping days), I do not get pimples! It does not irritate my skin at all and it's not heavy on my face even if I have to retouch my make up a lot of times during tapings. :) The only problem with RMK is, we don't have it here in the Philippines. I always have to buy it when I go to Hong Kong or if a friend or a relative goes to HK, I ask them to buy for me. :)



Speaking of buying for me, my mom went to HK recently and she bought me some more RMK!!! I love her!:) She also bought me some lashes and two different kinds of lash glue. I love eyelashes!!! I will blog about the best lashes soon:)
