What Is Kelong Sotong?

Kelong sotong refers to squid supplied through kelong sources and frozen for practical home use. For customers, the main advantage is convenience: you can keep a box in the freezer and use it when you need a quick seafood dish.

This is different from buying seafood only when you plan a big meal. Frozen squid gives you a useful backup ingredient for weekday cooking, fried rice, noodles, soup, sambal dishes or a simple boiled seafood plate.

Why Frozen Squid Works for Singapore Homes

1. It stores easily in the freezer, so you do not need to cook it on the same day.
2. It cooks very fast, which is useful for busy families.
3. The size is practical: about 5 inches each, around 10 pieces per 500g box.
4. At $12 per box, it is an easy add-on when buying crabs, lobsters, fish or clams.

Simple Cooking Ideas for Sotong

1. Salt water boil

For the cleanest and easiest method, boil briefly in salt water. This keeps the flavour simple and lets the natural sweetness come through.

2. Ginger and spring onion stir-fry

Slice the sotong and stir-fry quickly with ginger, spring onion and a light soy-based sauce. This is fast, fragrant and good with rice.

3. Sambal sotong

For something stronger, use it for sambal sotong. It works well when you want a bolder dish for dinner.

4. Garlic butter grill or pan-sear

Pan-sear or grill lightly, then finish with garlic butter and a squeeze of lemon. Keep the cooking short so the texture stays pleasant.
