CRISPY SALT & PEPPER SQUID GLUTEN FREE RECIPE

Warning. This crispy salt and pepper squid is extremely moreish and may cause fork fights at the dinner table. It is super easy to prepare with just a gluten free dusting of either tapioca flour (also known as arrowroot) or potato flour. Both work well. Tapioca results in a slightly thinner coating whilst potato flour delivers a little more crunch. You can even replace the flour with your favourite gluten free breadcrumb for an even thicker coating.

Cook just before serving to ensure the squid stays crisp and crunchy. A scattering of fresh mint and parsley at the end adds a beautiful fragrant freshness to the squid. Serve with homemade lime aioli and I guarantee these crispy bites of deliciousness will disappear in record time.

      Hi Fiona

      Sorry for the late reply I have just returned from an overseas holiday. Yes you could use plain flour. You can buy it clean but you will need to cut and score yourself as most fishmongers will not do this for you. Good luck!
