Home-cooked fried squid with wild rice

Overview

When I was very young, I remember that my grandma loved to cook wild rice stir-fried squid for me and my cousins. She would eat a big bowl of rice every time, and she would eat all the rice mixed with soup. Later, I went to other places with my family. There was no seafood sold there. Occasionally, I ate what my mother cooked once or twice and it had the same taste, but I still thought it was my grandma who made it. Later, when I got married and started a family, I also fried it but it always tasted wrong. Maybe it was the taste of my grandma that I liked at that time!
