This dish makes my mouth water even thinking about it. If you are not a fan of squid, this dish just might convert you. Squid rings are dusted with potato starch, seasoned with sea salt and ground white pepper and then pan fried to give a crispy coating. You can also use frozen squid rings, but fresh are best. Served on a bed of shredded iceberg lettuce and finely stripped carrots with a generous sprinkling of fresh red chilies, spring onions and fresh cilantro, this makes a great appetizer
