Steps

  1. 1
    Rinse the squid, pull out any remaining quill and cut the tubes into rings 1 cm wide. Pat them very dry with kitchen paper.
  2. 2
    Season the rings with the salt and pepper.
  3. 3
    Put the flour, the beaten eggs and the breadcrumbs in three separate dishes. Coat each ring in flour, then egg, then breadcrumbs.
  4. 4
    Heat the oil in a deep pan to 180°C.
  5. 5
    Fry the rings in small batches for 1–2 minutes, until golden — squid toughens after about 2 minutes and only softens again with long stewing, so lift them out as soon as the crust colours.
  6. 6
    Drain on kitchen paper while you fry the rest, letting the oil come back to 180°C each time.
  7. 7
    Mix the mayonnaise with the garlic and serve the rings hot with the garlic mayonnaise and the lemon wedges.
