I have also made a Mango dip that is suprisingly tasty with this.

Ingredients

  • Calimari
  • Salt & pepper
  • Oil for frying
  • Flour

Directions

Cut the cleaned calimari into "rings", leaving tentacles whole. I find that using medium sized squid is best. Dredge in seasoned (s&p) flour and fry in about 1 1/2 - 2 inches of oil. You may want to use a splatter guard, available in many stores!! Don't cook for too long, just enough so that the ring and tentacles get golden brown. This makes the lightest calamari I ever had, avoiding the doughy taste the some batters give to the squid. Serve with your favorite sauce as hot or mild as you wish.
