3/4 cup diced ( 1/2 inch) scallion (6 to 8 scallions)
2 pounds cleaned squid, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 cups Thai rice (about 14 ounces), available in some supermarkets and most Asian specialty food stores

1 or 2 Thai peppers (amount depending on pepper size and desired hotness), chopped
2 teaspoons salt, plus additional to taste
Tabasco red pepper sauce (optional)

Steps:

  • In a large, sturdy saucepan, heat the oil until hot but not smoking. Add the onion, celery and scallion, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the squid and rice, and mix well.
  • Stir in the tomato, garlic, ginger, lemon peel, Thai pepper and salt, along with 2 1/2 cups warm tap water. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally so it doesn't stick. When it comes to a full boil, reduce the heat to very low, cover, and cook for 20 minutes.
