Steps:

  • Check calamari for breaks and slice into 1/8- to 1/4-inch rings.
  • Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Place 2 cups flour in a bowl. Whisk milk and eggs together in a separate bowl. Place remaining 4 cups flour, cornstarch, paprika, salt, pepper, and cayenne in a third bowl; mix thoroughly.
  • Toss calamari rings in the plain flour. Move to the egg mixture and thoroughly coat. Move to the seasoned flour and coat fully. Move back to egg mixture if not thoroughly coated; coat with seasoned flour again.
  • Submerge floured calamari in the hot oil until golden, 3 to 4 minutes per batch. Lift out with a slotted spoon, letting oil drip off. Drain on paper towels. Place calamari in a small bowl; check seasoning. Add parsley and lemon wedge for garnish.

Steps:

  • Add the oil to a wide pan and heat to about 325 degrees F. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Pat the calamari dry with paper towels.
  • Combine the flour and cayenne pepper. Working in batches, toss 1/3 of the calamari in the seasoned flour. Transfer the calamari to a mesh strainer and shake off the excess flour.
  • Carefully drop the calamari into the hot oil; the oil should bubble gently and the calamari should have plenty of room to swim around and fry gently. Do not crowd the pan or the oil won't come back up to temperature quickly. When done, the calamari should be very pale golden and tender. It should not look like little brown rubber bands. Remove the calamari from the hot oil and drain it on paper towels. Salt it immediately and keep it warm in the oven until all the calamari is done.
  • Repeat in 2 more batches with the remaining calamari.
  • Serve with lemon wedges.

3 to 4 cups peanut or other neutrally flavored oil, for frying
1 pound clean calamari, tubes and legs, tubes cut into 1/2-inch rings
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
Kosher salt
Lemon wedges, for garnish

Steps:

  • Place the peanut oil in a 4 to 5-quart Dutch oven and place over medium-high heat. Heat oil until it reaches 375 degrees F.
  • Rinse the squid thoroughly and pat dry. Cut the tentacles in half lengthwise and the tubes into 1/2-inch rings. Set aside.
  • Place the egg, water and flour into a bowl and whisk thoroughly to combine. In small handfuls, dip the squid in the batter and shake off the excess. In batches, gently lower the squid into the hot oil. Cook for 1 minute. The squid will not be browned, but lightly golden in color. Remove the squid and transfer to a cooling rack turned upside down set over a newspaper-lined sheet pan. Season with salt and pepper, as desired. Repeat until all of the squid is cooked. Make sure to check the temperature of the oil before each batch to ensure it is 375 degrees F. Serve immediately.

2 quarts peanut oil
1 pound squid, tubes and tentacles
1 egg
1 cup ice water
1 cup all-purpose flour
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper

DEEP FRIED CALAMARI (SIMPLE)

This is so easy! Just like the restaurants in Spain! The coating is crispy though not overbearing, and the calamari will be tender. The trick here is that the Calamari needs to be cooked either super quick, or for a long time on a simmer for it to be tender. If you like fried calamari, you are going to love this recipe!

Steps:

  • First, coat the calamari rings in corn meal, shaking them out to get rid of any excess.
  • Then dip them into a mixture of the eggs and garlic.
  • Lastly, dip them into the bread crumbs mixed with salt, coating them well, and shaking off any excess.
  • Up to this point may be done in advance, and the calamari rings refrigerated for a couple of hours, until you are ready to fry.
  • Meanwhile, heat the oil (the secret to crispy calamari is hot, hot oil, just below the smoking point.) Fry the rings (in batches) about 1 minute, or until they are golden.
  • Remove and drain on paper towels.
  • If you have a deep fryer it's best, but otherwise, make sure the oil is deep enough to cover the calamari.
  • Serve immediately with lemon wedges, garlic mayo, and marinara sauce.

1 lb cleaned calamari, cut into rings
1/4 cup cornmeal or 1/4 cup cornstarch
2 eggs, slightly beaten
2 cloves garlic, mashed
1 cup breadcrumbs (I like garlic and parsley flavored)
salt
oil (for frying)
