Five Spice Grilled Squid Rings

About This Recipe

Crispy Baked Squid Rings are a delicious and easy-to-make seafood delight, perfect for appetizers or snacks. Fresh squid is marinated with salt, five-spice powder, black pepper, and a splash of cooking wine for a rich, savory flavor. Coated in a crispy layer of starch, egg, and seasoned breadcrumbs with a hint of cumin, these squid rings are baked to golden perfection—first at 200°C for a tender inside, then at 220°C for an irresistible crunch. The result? Juicy, flavorful squid with a satisfying crispy exterior. Serve with tangy tomato sauce for an extra burst of flavor. Quick to prepare and packed with umami, these baked squid rings are a crowd-pleaser that’s healthier than deep-fried versions but just as delicious!
