Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Stuffing

    In a skillet, cook the chopped onion and minced garlic in a little oil until soft. Add the longanisa sausage and cook until browned. Stir in the cooked rice, cilantro, black pepper, and salt. Mix well and set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Crispy Rice

    Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the cooked rice, pressing it down to form a crust. Cook until the bottom is crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Flip and crisp the other side, adding salt to taste.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Golden Raisin Vinaigrette

    In a blender, combine golden raisins, white wine vinegar, olive oil, honey, and salt. Blend until smooth and adjust seasoning as needed.

Assembly

  1. 4

    Stuff the Squid

    Clean the squid and stuff it with the longanisa mixture. Secure the openings with toothpicks.

  2. 5

    Cook the Squid

    Grill or sauté the stuffed squid until cooked through, about 5-6 minutes per side.

  3. 6

    Serve

    Place the crispy rice on a plate, top with the stuffed squid, drizzle with golden raisin vinaigrette, and garnish with Castelvetrano olives and fresh parsley.
