NUTTY RICE
Rinse the rice and place in a pot over a medium-high heat. Submerge in 250ml of salted water and pop on a lid.

Drain on completion if necessary and fluff up with a fork.

Return the pan to a high heat with another drizzle of oil. When very hot, fry the marinated squid for 1-2 minutes until cooked through and crispy, shifting occasionally.
