Grilled Squid with Tomato Onion Salsa

Grilled Squid with Tomato Onion Salsa

Ingredients:
* 450 gr squid, prepared
* Extra virgin olive oil
* Lemon juice
* 1 medium-sized rd chili, deseeded, finely chopped
* salt

For the Salsa:
* 1/2 medium avocado, ripe but firm
* 5 small tomatoes, chopped
* 1/4 small red onion, peeled, finely chopped
* 1/2 small red chili, deseeded, finely chopped
* Small palmful coriander leaves, chopped

Way to make it:

1. Make the salsa: peel, stone and dice the avocado neatly. Mix all the salsa ingredients together gentley and set aside.

2. Heat a pan. One of those ridged cast iron ones is best. Slap the squid on the hot gill. It will sizzle and hiss at you. Press it down on the pan. One minute. Turn it over. Another minute. Lift it off, sprinkle a little salt over it and put it on to a warm plate with the salsa. Be quick it's going cold.

3. Drizzle over some olive oil, squirt lots of lemon juice over it and then scatter with salt and the chopped chili. Serve while it's still piping hot.
