tomato spicy sauce ingredients :
1 tomato
1 shallot
1 clove garlic
handful  cilantro
1 tbs olive oil
( chop all sauce ingredients into blender until combine )

preparation:
On deep fry pan heat vegetable oil until temperature reach 350 degree F
cut  squid into  1/3-1/2 inch  thick rings, use tentacles if you like
