Salt and Pepper

Hi everyone

I love salt and pepper squid. This is my favourite recipe and it has a touch of garlic too. Up to you if your not a fan of garlic leave it out. 

Ingredients

1 kg squid tubes cleaned and cut into thin rings
juice of 3 lemons
1 cup of cornflour
2 tablespoons of salt 
1 1/2 tablespoon of white pepper
1 clove of garlic crushed
2 teaspoons caster sugar
4 egg whites lightly beaten
oil for deep frying

Put the rings in a non metalic dish and pour lemon juice and garlic overtop. Cover and refrigerate for 15 mins. Drain and pat dry.

Preheat the oil to 180'C (350'F). Combine the cornflour, salt, white pepper and sugar in a bowl. Dip the squid rings in the egg whites and dust with the salt and pepper mixture, shaking off the excess.

Add the squid to the oil in batches and fry for 1-2 mins until golden. Drain on tissue. Serve with aioli I like flavors like lemon or cayenne or even rocket..yumm

Enjoy xx
