Categories     Squid

Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 pieces calamari, sliced into rings
2/3 cup stale breadcrumbs
salt
pepper
garlic powder
1 egg
1/4 cup milk
oil (for deep frying)
tartar sauce (for serving)

Steps:

  • Mix the breadcrumbs with the salt, pepper and garlic powder and place into a plastic bag so you can shake the crumbs onto the calamari.
  • Beat the egg and combine with the milk and place this into a small dish.
  • Heat the oil up to 160C degrees.
  • Dip the calamari rings individually into the egg/milk mix and then into the plastic bag and shake.
  • The calamari should be well coated.
  • Deep fry until a nice brown tinge. I tend to fry mine for about 4-5 minutes. It also depends on the calamari some it is better at a lower heat for longer. This rule especially applies to bought crumbed calamari.
  • Enjoy.
  • Serve with tartar sauce.
