Step 1

Keep the cleaned squid in the refrigerator until ready to use.

Step 2

In a medium skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until

Step 3

wilted and lightly golden. Stir in the garlic. Transfer the mixture to a bowl and let cool.

Step 4

Add all the cheeses, dill, mint,the lemon zest and egg to the bowl with the onion and toss to combine. Season with the pink peppercorns and salt and black pepper to taste. (The mixture will likely be salty enough with the feta, so you may not need to add any.)

Step 5

Stir in 2 tablespoons of the bread crumbs to help bind the mixture. Test it by shaping a

Step 6

small ball with your hands; if it is still too loose to hold its shape, add more of the bread crumbs, 1 tablespoon at a time, until firm enough. Cover and refrigerate the mixture for 30 minutes to help firm it up.

Step 7

Remove the squid and filling from the refrigerator. Stuff each of the squid tubes with enough of the filling to come up to about ¼ inch (6 mm) from the top so that when the stuffed squid shrinks during cooking, it doesn’t burst. Using a toothpick, secure the open end of the tube closed.

Step 8

Heat a grill until quite hot or heat a grill pan over high heat. Brush the grill grates or pan

Step 9

with a little olive oil. Place the stuffed squid and tentacles (separately) on the grill or in the

Step 10

hot grill pan and cook for 5 to 7 minutes, turning with kitchen tongs a few times, until lightly

Step 11

browned all over.

Step 12

Serve as is or, for a more dramatic effect, using a sharp knife score the top of each squid tube so that the surfaces fans open a bit, revealing the cheesy filling. Remove the toothpick and serve, garnished with lemon wedges and pink peppercorns.
