Charbroiled Calamari Sandwich

House-baked sandwich bun
Spicy remoulade
Lettuce, tomato, sweet Maui onion and arugula

I made this sandwich last week for our Saturday 9 dollar lunch special. I baked the sandwich roll that day. I gave it an overnight rise to give it extra flavor and texture. The spicy remoulade and arugula gave it a good kick.

Ingredients:

4 oz calamari steak

Sweet Maui onion sliced

Arugula

Green leaf lettuce

Sliced tomatoes

California olive oil

Spicy remoulade

Sandwich roll

Make the remoulade:

1 cup mayonnaise

3 tbsp creamed horseradish

2 tbsp chopped cornichones   

1 tbsp sweet pickle relich

1 tbsp chopped peppers

1 tbsp chopped scallion

1 tbsp allepo pepper 

1 tbsp cayenne pepper

Mix all ingredients and use as a spread or dip for seafood

Method:

Brush the calamari steak with olive oil and sprinkle on salt and pepper to taste.

Cook on a char broiler or BBQ grill about 3 min per side 

Spread 1 tbsp of remoulade on the sandwich roll, place the grilled calamari steak, then the lettuce, tomato, onion and arugula.
