To the squid lovers out there, I would like to share my recipe of calamari that is cooked home-style. It can be served with rice or alone. Fried Calamares in Sour Cream Sauce Ingredients: 1 kg medium sized Squid 1 medium green lemon 1 tsp. ground black pepper 1 tsp. iodized salt (kosher salt) 2 egg whites 1 cup all-purpose flour For sour cream sauce: 1/2 cup mayonnaise 1/3 cup sour cream 1 tbsp. snipped dill leaves 1 tbsp. grated ginger Procedure: Clean the squid and remove head, ink sacs, tentacles discarded, outer purple skin peeled off. Slice the squid into 1/2 inches. Marinate in lemon juice for about 25 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and mix thoroughly. Dip the squid rings in the egg whites and coat in all-purpose flour. Heat oil in the frying pan and fry the squid rings in hot oil a few pieces at a time. Do not overcook. Drain the cooked calamares in paper towel. Set aside. Combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, dill and grated ginger in a bowl. Put in a small bowl and serve with the fried calamares. Note: If dill leaves are not available, substitute with parsley or any favorite herb.
