Instructions: Rub the squid with salt and rinse. Slit and flatten the squid sac and make diagonal cuts on the inside surface. Cut into bite-sized pieces. Combine marinade ingredients, then marinate squid for 1 hour.

Grill squid over a charcoal grill, until just tender (about 2 minutes each side). Arrange on a serving platter and garnish with cilantro. Serve with Fish Sauce Dip.

Comments: Grilled meats and seafood are very popular in Vietnam and many recipes, like this one, rely upon the specific flavors imparted from the open wood burning grill.

Helpful hint: This is a versatile marinade, suitable for other types of fish or poultry.
