Directions

1. How to stew squid in sour cream sauce? Prepare your ingredients. Pre-defrost the squids by transferring them from the freezer to the lower shelf of the refrigerator. Peel them off by removing the top skin, then remove the insides along with the chitin plate. Rinse the carcasses well under running water.
2. Step 2. Boil the squid. How to boil squid? Pour water into a deep saucepan and heat over high heat. Once the water boils, add salt to the pot.
3. Step 3. Gently dip the squid carcasses into a pot of boiling water. Cook them literally for one to two minutes. If you cook for longer, the squid meat will become tough and rubbery.
4. Step 4. Using a slotted spoon or cooking tongs, remove the finished squid from the pan. Leave them to cool.
5. Step 5. Peel the large onion and cut into thin half rings.
6. Step 6. Heat the pan over high heat. Pour in sunflower oil, heat it, reduce heat and put onion half rings in a frying pan. Fry the onion, stirring occasionally, over low heat for 5 minutes.
7. Step 7. While the onion is fried, cut the squid into rings about one centimeter wide.
8. Step 8. Once the onion is lightly browned, add the squid rings to the pan. Simmer them, covered, over medium heat for 4-5 minutes.
9. Step 9. Add sour cream and finely chopped fresh dill. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir. Preheat the dish for a couple of minutes and serve! Boiled rice with butter is suitable as a side dish for squid, and in addition to a salad of fresh vegetables. Bon Appetit!
10. Using already completely peeled headless and skinless squid significantly reduces the cooking time for this dish.
11. In addition to salt, pepper and a small amount of dill, no other spices and herbs, in my opinion, should be added to this dish. The beauty of squid is its simplicity.
12. To lower the calorie content of the finished dish, you can use less fatty sour cream. For example, I took only ten percent, but the sauce still turned out to be very decent, and the squids are tender and soft.
13. For the same purpose, you can fry the onions in a dry non-stick skillet, and not in oil.
