Serves: 4
Preparation time:
15 minutes
Cooking time:
5 minutes
Ingredients:
2 x 200g calamari tubes, fresh or fr
ozen
¼ cup corn flour
¼ cup rice flour
1 Tbsp sea salt flakes
1 Tbsp mixed peppercor
ns, freshly gr
ound
Olive oil spray
Directions:
1.
Clean the calamari tubes, then slice down the long edge to open out like a book. Using a
sharp knife, gently score the inside of the calamari tubes in a criss-cr
oss pattern, making
sure not to cut all the way thr
ough. Once scored, cut the calamari into 3cm pieces,
including the tentacles if using.
2.
Combine the remaining ingr
edients in a large bowl. T
oss half the calamari pieces in the
flour mixture to coat well. Spr
ead pieces evenly over the mesh tray, criss-cr
oss pattern
facing down, and spray lightly with oil spray.
3.
Transfer to the toaster oven and cook on air fry mode for 5 minutes, shaking the tray every
now and then for even cooking. Calamari should be lightly golden and curled up when
cooked. Be careful not to over
cook the calamari, as it can become tough.
4.
Repeat with remaining calamari and flour mixtur
e. Serve with a dipping sauce or herb
salad.
