Calamares


This is the Little Girl's favorite squid dish. She can easily finish 20 pieces of these on her own.

I've tried different ways of cooking calamares - dipped with batter made of water, egg and flour; batter with flour and water without egg; batter made of water, egg and cornstarch; and one with water and cornstarch only.

But the best cooking technique is simply dusting the squid pieces in flour seasoned with some salt and pepper.  After dusting the squid deep-fry these for 30 seconds so that it will have a crispy coating but the squid remains soft, not chewy.
