Calamari and Sauces

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Calamari

    In a large bowl, mix the flour, cornstarch, salt, and black pepper. Dredge the calamari rings in the mixture until fully coated.

  2. 2

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep pan or fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 180°C (350°F).

  3. 3

    Fry the Calamari

    Carefully add the coated calamari rings to the hot oil in batches. Fry for about 2-3 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Make the Wasabi Aioli

    In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise and wasabi paste until well combined. Adjust the amount of wasabi to your taste.

  5. 5

    Serve

    On a serving plate, drizzle the sweet and sour sauce over the fried calamari. Add a side of wasabi aioli and a drizzle of chili oil. Garnish with fresh cilantro.
