    Serves: 2 

    • 250g fresh baby squid, cleaned
    • 3 teaspoons Herbie's Spices Salt and Pepper Squid
    • 2 tablespoons cornflour
    • vegetable oil for deep frying

    Preparation:15min  ›  Cook:2min  ›  Ready in:17min 

    1. Cut the tentacles from the hoods of the squids, opening out the hoods and scoring in a diamond pattern on the inside.
    2. Cut the tentacles into groups of 4 and pat dry all the pieces, including hoods, dry between sheets of paper towel.
    3. Mix the spice mix with the cornflour in a shallow bowl.
    4. Heat the oil in a deep pan until very hot. To test the oil, press the end of a wooden spoon onto the base of the pan - if the oil sizzles, it's hot enough.
    5. Coat each piece of squid well with the flour mixture, then shake gently to remove excess.
    6. Deep fry until crisp and golden-brown - about 60-80 seconds.
    7. Drain on kitchen towel then serve while hot and crisp.
