Fiery Salt & Pepper Squid

Directions

1. To clean squid tubes, pull out the head and tentacles from the hood. Cut the tentacles off just below the eyes, wash and keep. Throw out head. Cut open the hood and wash. Score in diamond pattern along the inside. Pat dry with paper towel.

2. Mix spice through rice flour. Cut squid into strips keeping the legs whole.

3. Heat oil to 180°C. Dust squid in flour mixture and cook immediately after dusting.

4. You will get the best results if you do this in small batches. Deep fry for approximately 60 seconds or until crisp. Drain onto absorbent paper.
