Ingredients
Instructions
  1. Put the oil in a frying pan over a high heat. Bash the salt and peppercorns in a pestle and mortar until coarsely ground. Combine the mixture in a freezer bag with the cornflour. Add the squid and toss to coat.
  2. When the oil is very hot- not quite smoking but nearly- fry the squid in batches , knocking any excess cornflour back into the bag first. Cook each batch for about a minute until just crisp on the outside and still tender within- be careful not to overcook or it will become tough.
  3. Remove to plates lined with kitchen paper then when its drained remove the paper. Squeeze over the lemon juice and eat with your fingers.
