Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Firstly, prepare a deep-fryer with a good vegetable oil and heat to 375 degrees F, or use a medium size deep frying pan on high heat.
  2. Defrost calamari and rinse under cold running water.
  3. Cut calamari into 1/4 inch strips. If using fresh calamari, just cut into 1/4 inch strips. Pat dry calamari with paper towels.
  4. In a medium size mixing bowl, mix together flour and Panko bread crumbs.
  5. Add milk to a bowl and dip calamari in the milk.
  6. Toss calamari strips in flour/crumb mixture just to coat. You do not want to have a heavy coating as it could drop off when frying.
  7. Flash fry coated calamari in prepared deep-fryer or frying pan for about 15 seconds, deep frying in small amounts.
  8. In a frying pan, heat 1/2 cup of vegetable oil to medium-high heat.
  9. Add garlic and Sambal Oelek and stir well, cover with a screen to prevent oil from spattering or splashing.
  10. Sauté flash-fried calamari for about 1 minute or until nicely light brown. Do not over fry as it could get chewy.
  11. Serve calamari with your favorite dip.
