Calamari In The Bag

What’s in the bag?  Squid and seasoned flour ready to be fried up here for this family party! That’s right making some delicious calamari.  It’s that simple.  Put some flour in a bag with some salt and pepper.  Add cleaned squid cut into slender rings and add to bag.  Shake to coat.  Fry up in small batches in a hot frying pan with some light olive oil.

I like to serve it with fresh squeezed lemon.  A spicy tomato sauce is always welcome for some dipping.  The trick is do no overcook  (just 3-5 minutes) or the calamari will get tough.  Also like all fried food this must be served immediately.  Drain on some paper towels, salt and serve.  Enjoy this and other quick and easy recipes in our whatwouldmomsay cook book.
