A favorite seafood appetizer of squid rings fried until crisp in a light, airy batter. The squid stays tender inside, and the rings are best served with plenty of lemon.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Dry the squid

6 min

Drain the squid rings and pat them thoroughly dry with paper towels.

2

Make the batter

4 min

Whisk the flour, cornstarch, baking soda, salt, and black pepper together. Add soda water to make a pourable batter.

3

Fry the squid

8 min

Dip the squid rings in the batter and fry briefly in hot oil until golden and crisp. Caution: Do not fry them for long; squid toughens quickly.

4

Drain and serve

2 min

Drain on paper towels and serve immediately with lemon slices.

Reminder

Important: Cook squid either very briefly (a few minutes) or for a long time; cooking it for an in-between length of time can make it rubbery. For a quick, crisp fry, heat the oil thoroughly. Contains squid (a mollusk) and wheat gluten. Check packaged ingredients for other allergens.
