There are a ton of recipes from my mom, I could share, this is one among them. ’Squid Roast/ Malabar Style Koonthal Roast’, It amazes me every time I have it at my mothers home. This Squid Roast is one of my old time favourite. So today I am expressing an other exotic seafood recipe made with squid/ koonthal /kanava in a spicy roast form. We have seen many roast dishes made with all kind of non vegetarian items. This is my style of malabar recipe which is quick and easy koonthal roast with only available ingredients in my kitchen.
This is a authentic mode of koonthal roast cooked in all natural spices and ingredients. Initially the cleaned ring shaped squids are cooked with some regular spices and kept aside. Then it mixed with onion tomato mix and added garam masala for more flavour. Friends, I am sharing with you how to make this spicy delicious Koonthal roast.
