Ikapiri - Sweet and Spicy Japanese Squid

This Ikapiri, sweet and spicy deep fat fried squid, is one of my favourite dishes at the Mochi Ramen Bar in Vienna, so I thought I would share it with you. It has a nice texture, and a beautiful mix of savoury, sweet and spicy flavours. Perfect at an Izakaya party or just as a snack to nibble on while having a drink. Make it yourself and let me know what you think of it.

Thanks Amir, I’m glad to hear 👍

Super nice, Christian! You know I am a big fan fan of all Japanese, (except mochi). Normally I avoid squid if there is better stuff to eat, but this is really good. With fresh squid one have to take out the two surprising "plastic" bones, but it is easy. My friend Yakko in his sushi bar in Fukuoka does this sometimes when he has got squid left over. Great clip! Arigato!

Dōitashimashite Micke! Happy you enjoyed it. Yes, two very “plasticky” bones 👍
