SPICY CALAMARI SALAD
This is my copycat recipe for a delicious salad I recently had in Nexxt Cafe, Miami Beach. I couldn't find a recipe for it, so I'm making it up from what I remember. If you are there on vacation, this is a must. Since I'm doing the best I can to re-create it, please feel free to make suggestions or comments. For the calamari, I guess you could make it from scratch; there are some good recipes here or just buy it at a restaurant. The "spicy" was very mild. For the vinaigrette find a recipe that goes well with it. I will experiment and taste a few different combinations and make updates as needed. I think some chopped avocados would go well with it.

Steps:
- For the spicy calamari and cucumber salad: Add the soy sauce, vinegar, honey, chili paste, garlic and ginger to a bowl and whisk to combine. Season with salt if needed. Divide the marinade between 2 medium bowls. Add the calamari to one of the bowls and the cucumbers to the other. Stir so that the calamari and cucumbers are fully coated in the marinade. Let marinate at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the calamari from the marinade and pat dry. Grill the calamari in batches until charred and tender, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board and slice the tubes into 1/2-inch rings. Add the rings and whole tentacles to the bowl with the cucumbers and toss to combine.
- For the spiced yogurt sauce: Whisk together the yogurt, chopped cilantro, coriander, garlic, caraway seeds, sumac, paprika and 1 teaspoon salt. The sauce can be made up to 1 day in advance and kept refrigerated.
- To serve: Spread some of the yogurt sauce onto a shallow dish. Use a spoon to create a well in the center of the sauce so that the sides of the sauce are about 1/2-inch high. Add the marinated cucumbers and grilled calamari into the well. Garnish with cilantro leaves and black sesame seeds. Serve immediately.
