- Preparing the Squid
Rinse squid rings under cold water and pat completely dry with paper towels. Moisture will prevent crispiness.
- Mixing the Coating In a
bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. Mix well to create an even coating mixture.
- Coating the Calamari
Toss squid rings in the flour mixture until fully coated. Shake off excess flour to avoid clumping.
- Yağı Isıtmak
Heat oil in a deep pan to 180°C. The oil must be hot enough to crisp the coating instantly.
- Frying the Calamari
Fry squid in small batches for 2-3 minutes until golden and crispy. Do not overcook or they will become rubbery.
- Draining Remove with a slotted
spoon and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.
- Serving Serve immediately with lemon
wedges and optional dipping sauces.
