Method
-
step 1
Cut the squid into rings keeping any tentacles intact and soak in the buttermilk for 2 hours to tenderise.
-
step 2
To make the remoulade, mix all the ingredients together and season well.
-
step 3
To make the guacamole, roughly mash the avocado and then mix with the rest of the ingredients.
-
step 4
Mix the panko and chilli flakes. Shake any excess buttermilk off the squid then drop into the breadcrumbs and toss to coat. Heat oil in a pan no more than ⅓ full to 180C, or until a cube of bread browns in about 30 seconds, and then deep fry the squid until golden.
-
step 5
Warm the tortillas on a griddle or in a hot, dry frying pan. Top with gochujang remoulade, a dollop of kimchi guacamole and the fried squid. Finish with sliced radish and pea shoots. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and a pinch of chilli flakes.
