Salt and Pepper Squid Recipe

Ingredients:

  • Peanut Oil
    3/4 Cups
  • Cornstarch
    1 Cups
  • All Purpose Flour
    1 Cups
  • Sea Salt
    2 Tablespoons
  • Peppercorns
    2 Tablespoons
  • Calamari Tubes
    8 Ounces

Preparation mode:

1) Slice up the calamari tubes in half and open them up. Lay flat on a surface.
2) Make a cross hatch pattern on the inside of the sliced calamari using a sharp knife.
3) Heat up a skillet over high heat. Fry the peppercorns for a couple of minutes, stirring regularly. Set aside.
4) To the same hot skillet, sprinkle salt to taste and roast it. Set aside.
5) Mix the roasted salt with pepper and grind into a fine powder.
6) Add the ground salt and pepper to a resealable bag. Mix in cornstarch and flour. Shake to mix thoroughly.
7) Heat up oil in a wok over high heat.
8) Once the oil is super hot, coat the squid pieces in the bag mixture and fry in the hot oil.
Note: Each squid piece should take half a minute at most!

Footnotes:

One of the simplest and most delicious squid dishes you can have, this Salt and Pepper Squid Recipe. Also very healthy, because they are just coated with sea salt and ground black pepper mixed with flour. A perfect summer appetizer meal that would go well as a stunning main course dish if served with a nice light green salad.
