Method

Serve the hot squid immediately with a lime wedge.

Remove the squid with a slotted spoon and drain on kitchen towels.

Fry the squid in small batches for 2 to 4 minutes until golden-brown.

Heat the oil until a pinch of flour sizzles immediately upon contact.

Dredge the squid rings in the flour mixture until evenly coated.

Mix the flours in a bowl and season with salt and pepper.

Fill a heavy-based pan two-thirds full with vegetable oil.
