SEABITS SALAD
Seabits: You shop at a big-chain grocery, you know what I'm talking about... there you are, just casually shopping for "whatever you need" on an empty stomach, taking far too much time analyzing everything that leaps to your eye as you meander the cart down every single aisle, checking out the "fresh" salmon fillets and wondering if you have the energy to make a fucking fish fillet tonight after you get home instead of just eating ramen.... and then you see it. A styrofoam tray catches your eye, pink and purple tones beckon you, and you realize that the tray seems to be completely filled with miniscule tentacles. Yep, you've spotted the "mixed catch seafood" tray. At $4 a pound it seems like a bargain for protein, but ..... tentacles? You bet!
fresh hot chili, diced
fresh ginger, julienned
peanut oil
seabits
holy chili basil sauce
scallions
mashed garlic
salad leaves: mixed, parsley, cilantro
Gently fry the ginger and chili in the oil. Turn the heat up to med/high and add the seabits, cooking as briefly as possible (a few minutes or so). Add the scallions and garlic and remove from the heat, letting them cook slightly. Add the chili basil sauce, and toss to coat. While still warm, toss with the salad and season to taste. Or chill everything and eat the next day for lunch, but don't combine the parts until you're ready to eat. I apologize for not taking a photo, but it was tasty.
