Method
Preparing the Calamari
- 1
Clean the Squid
Rinse the medium sized squid under cold water. Remove the head, tentacles, and internal organs. Cut the squid body into rings about 1/2 inch thick.
- 2
Prepare the Batter
In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Gradually whisk in the cold water until the batter is smooth and slightly thick.
Frying the Calamari
- 3
Heat the Oil
In a deep frying pan or pot, heat the vegetable oil to 180°C (350°F). Use a thermometer to check the temperature.
- 4
Coat the Squid
Dip the squid rings into the batter, ensuring they are fully coated.
- 5
Fry the Squid
Carefully place the coated squid rings into the hot oil. Fry in batches to avoid overcrowding, for about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown. Remove the fried calamari using a slotted spoon and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
Preparing the Dipping Sauce

Mix the Sauce
In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, sriracha sauce, and lemon juice. Mix well until all ingredients are combined. Add salt to taste.
