Instructions

  1. Cut the squid tubes into 1 cm rings and leave the tentacles whole. Rinse and dry them thoroughly.
  2. Mix the flour with the salt, paprika and pepper. Beat the eggs in another dish and spread the breadcrumbs on a third plate.
  3. Dip each piece of squid in the flour, then the egg, then the breadcrumbs, pressing gently.
  4. Heat the oil to 180 °C in a deep pan, or until a small piece of bread sizzles vigorously in it.
  5. Lower the squid in small batches for 2 to 3 minutes until golden.
  6. Drain on kitchen paper, season lightly with salt and serve straight away with the lemons.

Variations and tips

No-fry version. Spray the coated squid with a little oil and bake at 220 °C for 10 minutes.
