1/2 tsp white pepper (freshly ground )
500 g baby calamari (fresh whole or 250g cleaned tubes )
2 lemons (cut into small wedges to serve )

Directions:

Pour the oil into a large saucepan and place a thermometer (for deep frying) in the oil, making sure it does not touch the bottom of the pan and heat of medium until the temperature reaches 180°C.
Clean calamari till you only have the tubes left and then halve lengthways and score inner flesh in a crisscross pattern, then cut into 5cm pieces.
Meanwhile line a large tray with paper town and put the rice flour, salt and pepper in a large shallow dish and stir well.
Coat half the calamari pieces in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
Carefully add to the hot oil and cook for 30 seconds or until the calamari is light golden brown and transfer to the tray, repeat with the remaining calamari pieces.
Insert toothpicks into the calamari pieces to serve with the lemon wedges.
