STEP 1/13
It's not a lot because it's a squid that I left after cooking the radish soup.
I was thinking about making stir-fried squid, but it wasn't a lot, so I decided to make fried squid as a snack.
(I used the defrosted squid in the freezer, so I used it right away without trimming it.)
STEP 2/13
I use this method when I make jeon.
Put 2 spoons of frying powder in 1 bag of plastic and make sure that the squid is coated well! Add the squid and shake it.
You can spread the frying powder on a tray and put the squid on the frying powder, but if you put it in a bag and shake it, it's quick and easy.
STEP 3/13
I'm going to coat it with batter.
Add 3 spoons of frying powder and water. I added a little bit of water and adjusted it to the desired concentration. Rather than being thick, I like the concentration that's slightly thick and dripping. I heard that there is more crunchiness if you add ice, so I added ice. You can skip it.
STEP 4/13
Adjust the dough to the desired concentration and dip the squid covered with frying powder.
STEP 5/13
Now add enough oil to the pan.
To check the proper temperature, pour oil and preheat the pan and drop the batter with chopsticks.
If the batter sinks and then pops up, you can think of it as a suitable temperature for frying.
STEP 6/13
If you tilt it to one side and fry it, you don't have to use a lot of oil. Fry it like this.
If you think it's fried well, it's done.
STEP 7/13
And then quickly make the tartar sauce.
I put in 2 spoons of mayonnaise, 1 spoon of lemon juice, 1 spoon of honey, and an appropriate amount of chopped onions (I like to chew, so I put in a little too much). I think it would be good if you put it in according to your preference.).
Normally, it tastes better because it's sour and sweeter with cucumber pickles, but I skipped it because there was no cucumber pickle. It was delicious even if I skipped it. If you have cucumber pickles, cut them into small pieces and put them in.
STEP 8/13
Mix it well and add pepper and mix it again. The tartar sauce is complete.
STEP 9/13
Fried squid and tartar sauce are done.
It's not greasy because there's not much batter on it, and it's crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. And tartar sauce is sweet and sour, so it goes well with fried squid.
Chili sauce is a commercially available sauce, but I took it out because it was at home.
STEP 10/13
There was no cucumber pickle, so the chewiness and sweetness were a little less, but it was still very delicious. I love the sweetness of honey and the sourness of lemon juice.
STEP 11/13
It's fried squid. It's crispy on the outside and moist on the inside.
It was a shame that sometimes I bought fried squid at a snack bar and ate a lot of fried squid on the outside and there were many small squid inside, but it was inconvenient to make fried squid myself, but it was good to eat squid properly.
STEP 12/13
For those who don't like greasy food, it's better to have less batter.
Even if I didn't season it separately, fried squid was delicious.
STEP 13/13
It was served with chili sauce and homemade tartar sauce, and it definitely went well with tartar sauce.
If you have any squid left, it would be great if you could give it to me as a snack or as a children's snack.
- If you have cucumber pickles, it's even better if you put them in tartar sauce.
