Chinese Salt and Pepper Squid | Fried Calamari Recipe | ASMR

Here is my take on some really crispy garlicky salt and pepper squid. The recipe also has a hint of heat that comes from Thai chilis and is topped with lime juice to add a little bit of zest. Enjoy! INGREDIENTS 3 cloves of Garlic (2 tsp | 5 g ) + (1 tsp | 2.5g ) White Pepper (1 tsp |6 g )x 2 Salt 1/2 tsp | 1 g Black pepper 2 Scallions 1 Small Red Pepper 1 Ibs | 453 g squid 2 bird’s eye chilis or Thai red chilis 1 Egg 2 tbsp | 16 g Cornstarch, potato starch or Rice Flour 1.5 Cup | 200 g Cornstarch extra to coat 2 tbsp | 30 mL Cooking wine (preferrable Shaoxing) or Sake Canola Oil or Vegetable oil for deep frying TIPS: Feel free to COMBINE potato starch, rice flour and cornstarch in a 1:1:1 ratio. I find that having a mixed composition of different flours adds to a more complex texture and even crispier bite! #saltandpeppersquid #calamari #squid
