This dish will serve 4 if there are 3 other        dishes besides soup; 6 if there are 6 other dishes, etc.                Saute garlic and chile peppers in half the oil over low        heat in a wok or heavy frying pan until garlic is lightly        browned. Add peanuts for the last 30 seconds. Stir        continuously.                Remove ingredients from the pan, add more oil, if        necessary, and the squid. Cook for 30 seconds. Return        peanuts, garlic and chiles to pan. Immediately add all        but 1 Tb of the stock, soy sauce and cilantro.                Continue stir-frying for another minute. Add cornstarch        mixture. When sauce thickens, remove from heat and serve.                [Score squid diagonally at three quarter inch intervals.        Turn and repeat at right angles to original cuts. Don't        cut all the way through the squid body. Cut each scored        squid body into three or four pieces.                When cooked, the squid will roll up & the crosshatching        will catch and hold the sauce. It's much easier to do        than to describe.
