Crispy Calamari
1. Prepare the Calamari
Rinse the calamari rings under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
2. Set Up the Breading Station
In a bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined.
3. Bread the Calamari
Dip each calamari ring into the egg mixture, letting any excess drip off, then dredge in the flour mixture, ensuring they are well coated.
4. Heat the Oil
In a large, deep skillet or pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
5. Fry the Calamari
Working in small batches, fry the breaded calamari rings in the hot oil for about 2-3 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Spicy Aioli
6. Prepare the Aioli
In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, minced garlic, sriracha sauce, lemon juice, and salt. Mix well until smooth.
