Instructions

1 ✓

Cut the squid into very small pieces (or pulse in a food processor until chunky). Finely chop the onion and garlic. Slice the vegetables.

Tip: Do not purée the squid completely into a paste; keep it slightly chunky for texture.
2 ✓

In a bowl, mix the squid, onion, crushed garlic, egg, breadcrumbs, salt, pepper, and a few drops of lemon juice. Let it stand for 5 minutes so the crumbs absorb moisture.

Tip: Resting is important for the binding agents (egg, crumbs) to activate.
3 ✓

Shape a patty the same size as the bun from the mixture. If too soft, add a little more breadcrumbs.

Tip: Forming with wet hands prevents the mixture from sticking to your skin.
4 ✓

Heat the butter in a frying pan and fry the patty for 3-4 minutes on each side over medium heat until golden brown and cooked through. Do not overcook, or it may become rubbery!

Tip: The taste of butter goes great with seafood, but be careful not to burn it.
5 ✓

Meanwhile, toast the cut side of the halved bun in the pan alongside the patty. Mix the mayonnaise with the remaining lemon juice.

Tip: The toasted surface prevents the sauce from making the bun soggy.
6 ✓

Assemble: bottom bun, lemon mayo, lettuce, squid patty, tomato, cucumber, top bun.

Tip: Pierce the centre with a toothpick to keep it stable when serving.

Recipe FAQ

Can I use frozen squid?
Yes, but defrost it and wipe thoroughly dry with kitchen paper, otherwise the patty will fall apart.
The patty falls apart when frying, what did I do wrong?
The mixture was probably too wet. Add a little more breadcrumbs and rest in the fridge before frying.
