I have loved this dish for a long time. It’s a great one to make after a day of squidding. Living on Rottnest Island for a couple of years was a treat. Pretty much anytime I felt like fresh squid I could walk down to the jetty and catch me a feed. Squid adobo was one of my favourite things to cook with my catch. It’s also a very simple dish to cook and you most likely have all the ingredients in you pantry and fridge. Cleaning the squid is also much easier than you think so don’t be scared. Then all you have to do is cut the squid into rings and cook this wonderful adobo dish.
