SQUID CALAMARES

SQUID CALAMARES

Squid calamares is good as appetizer or pulutan at a drinking session. If squid is expensive for you, try white onions. Cut it into rings and follow the same procedure. Squid calamares tastes better paired with chili sauce or with any of your favorite sauce. I prefer sweet chili sauce.



Ingredients:

• 1 kilo Squid or White Onion
• Lemon/Lemoncito
• Salt and Pepper
• 2 pcs. Eggs
• 1 cup Flour
• 1 cup Bread Crumbs
• Enough Cooking Oil for Deep Frying

Procedure:

1. Cut squid or white onion into rings. Marinate squid with lemon extract, salt and pepper for 30 minutes.
2. With one hand for dry dredging and the other hand wet dredging. Dredge the squid in this order: Dry, wet, dry or Flour, egg and then bread crumbs.
   If you are going to use white onion rings, you do not need to marinate it.
3. Deep fry until golden brown.
4. Server hot. Great with Sweet Chili Sauce Dip.
