Stuffed squids and baked salmon on sesame seeds were a summer favourite few years ago when I first discovered the joy of cooking.
I had completely forgotten about the stuffed squids, until some days ago, when my better half requested it. The recipe is very easy to follow and requires very few ingredients, so you’ll have a delicious gourmet dinner in no time and with little effort.
