Ingredients For world class calamari rings

  • 10 tube
    squid, cleaned and sliced
  • 6
    kiwi fruit
  • 10 clove
    garlic
  • 2 to 3 c
    plain flower
  • 1 cup
    egg wash
  • 2 to 3 c
    bread crumbs, dry

How To Make world class calamari rings

  • 1
    Take the thin layer if cinu off the squid this is a delicate procedure and time consuming when squid is just over half thawed is the best time to do this then once that is finished cut tubes all little finger nail thickness in to a ring shape
  • 2
    Cut kiwi fruit in half and squash into a big bowl
  • 3
    Cut garlic into fine cubes and add to bowl
  • 4
    Put all calamari rings in and keep mixing it make sure you really mix it up well I'd usually spend 10 to 15 mins doing this
  • 5
    Make sure you leave this for at least 8 hours i like leaving it 24 hours so then flavor really works
  • 6
    After your time has been just leave calamari rings in bowl and wash at all kiwi fruit and garlic off the rings
  • 7
    Then this is important do max 6 rings a time and flour the rings
  • 8
    I'm guessing we all know what egg wash is if not easy (3 eggs Lil milk stir done ) so we want to put our 6 rings into the egg wash
  • 9
    Then into the crumb of your choice I like coconut and Chilli but most people like bread crumbs or do both if you like
  • 10
    Then deep fry till crumb just starts changing colour i usually do it for like 15 to 20 second s max
