Directions
Chilli, Salt and Pepper Squid, This classic Cantonese starter is simple to make, but for real success, there are a couple of rules you need to follow Most important: always use clean oil for your deep-frying The resulting batter will be crisp, crunchy and light, as opposed to heavy, greasy and ‘dirty’ in flavour And be sure to serve it immediately: this dish is best eaten piping hot , I think this recipe would be amazing except for the amount of salt!!! It was way tooo salty I am going to try it again with only I teaspoon salt!
