Squid Rid Forbid

Though it wasn’t experiment with food on the weekend, but the color of this thing enticed me to pick it up from the shelf. It looked whiter than Nirma white, cleanly trimmed into a shape of fish. With a little idea about how this thing would have looked had it been alive, I brought it home. (All the time I could read “Skinless Squid” on the wrapping)

I called up one of my friends, an avid sea food lover.

I asked “yeh batao squid kya hota hai”

He said “web proxy cache, free waala hai download kar sakte ho”

I said "~!!@#$% main sea food ki baat kar raha hoon”

He said “bhai maine to nahin khaya, try karo aur batana”

Disappointed with him, I looked over a few recipes on the Internet, unluckily could not find all the ingredients. So decided to fry it in desi ishtyle. Not all that good, more like boiled eggs; bad enough to be trashed. I seem to be smelling it in those little corners.
