| | INGREDIENTS - 700 gr. Squid, cleaned and cut in portions (frozen squid is already cut in portions)
- Juice of 1 lemon
- Vegetable oil, for deep-frying
- A little oregano
- 60 grams flour
- Salt
|
| METHOD Prepare the squid. Remove eyes central bone. Rinse them, and drain in a colander for 1 hour. Deep-fry them as long as the oil is not too hot (about 350 grades F / 80
grades C is the right temperature). During frying squid spills hot oil and therefore you should be careful not to burn yourself.
1) Put the flour with salt in a plate, mix well and add half of the pieces of
squid, but leave the tentacles for the end.
2) Turn them in the flour, then lift a few pieces up at a time, shake excess
flour off and drop them in the hot oil.
3) When they turn a nice golden color lift them out with a slotted spoon.
4) At the end sprinkle the lemon juice all over, some oregano, and serve
immediately. |
