Phil Vickery’s Squid Prawn Almond Patties with Houmous & Mint

From Ainsley’s Festive Flavours, ITV

 

Method

Heat the oil and add the onion and garlic.

Cook for 2-3 minutes to soften. Once cooked, spoon into a bowl and cool.

Next add the squid, prawns, egg, coriander, almonds and salt and pepper. Mix really well.

Make 8 small balls and press slightly, then chill well.

Place all the ingredients for the dip into a bowl and mix well.

Heat the 1 tbsp of oil or spray a non-stick frying pan, then heat. Add the squid patties and gently cook for 2-3 minutes on each side (do not overcook).

Once cooked serve with the dipping sauce.
