SteemKitchen Recipe Contest 7 (Week 4 : Snacks) - SQUID SNACK 🐙🐙🐙

Source

I have visited Spain, and one of the most popular products is the squid, and this snack is undoubtedly perfect to make at home, giving the nutrients of this cephalopod, and the texture and flavor in each bite. The advantages are very fast and easy to do, maybe that's why it's very popular in Madrid.

Preparation time: 5 minutes

Cooking time: 10 minutes

Serving size: For 2 people

Ingredients (For 2 persons):

• 1 Fresh squid small
• 50 grams Chickpea flour
• 50 grams Wheat flour
• Salt
• Extra virgin olive oil
• Baguette bread or a bread roll for sandwich

Elaboration:

1. We start by cleaning the squid and separating the fins and tentacles. We cut the body into rings with a sharp knife. These rings, and if you also want the tentacles, are perfect for our Calamari sandwich.

2. We mix the wheat flour and the chickpea flour - if you want, you can use the special flours that they sell in the supermarkets - and we use the squid to flour them. It is important to talk about the techniques to improve fish fry, among them: remove the excess flour, shaking the squid on a sieve, as they see in the images.

3. While we have done this operation, we will have been heating the olive oil. It is important that it is at a very high temperature, between 180 and 190 degrees C, so that the batter is crunchy, not oily and does not detach from the squid rings.

4. Once the squids are browned, drain them on absorbent paper and place them on the bread, so that it is well filled. Normally a squid of medium size, you can get enough to make two squid sandwiches.
