Ginger Squid Japanese Style (Ika Shoga Yaki) image

Ika Shoga-yaki is simple but is a very popular dish in Japanese cuisine. Ika means squid, shoga means ginger and yaki means grill or fry. This recipe was given to me by a Japanese friend. I really enjoy squid and this makes a quick dinner or entree. 15 minutes marinating time is included in cooking time.

Time 30m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

500 g squid, thinly sliced (squid cubes)
2 tablespoons ginger, freshly grated
3 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons mirin
2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Combine ginger, soy sauce and mirin in a large bowl.
  • Add thinly sliced squid into the bowl and mix until all the squid is covered with the sauce. Allow squid to marinade for about 15 minutes.
  • After 15 minutes, heat wok or skillet (pan) at high heat, then add oil.
  • Remove squid from bowl (make sure any juices/marinate are left in the bowl). Reserve any marinate. Add squid into the hot pan.
  • Stir-fry squid quickly in the pan and cook until it changes colour (about 7 minutes). Work quickly as overcooked squid will become rubbery so don't over cook.
  • Pour marinate into the pan and stir quickly. (Marinated meat burns easily so it's important to work quickly).
  • Serve with steam rice and green vegetables.
  • Enjoy.

I love spicy food, so I added a bit of chili pepper to the ginger sauce. It gave the dish a nice kick without overpowering the other flavors. If you like spicy food, I recommend trying this variation.
