Ingredients:

700g medium whole baby squid or 500g squid tubes, cleaned
2/3 cup cornflour
1/3 cup plain flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp white pepper
2/3 cup cold tap water
Oil for frying

Instructions:

1 Prepare the Squid
Thoroughly clean and cut the squid into rings or strips. Score the inner side to allow better batter absorption.
2 Mix and Coat
In a bowl, combine cornflour, plain flour, baking powder, and white pepper. Gradually add cold water until the batter is smooth. Dip the squid pieces into the batter, ensuring each piece is well coated.
3 Fry the Squid
Heat oil in a deep fryer or large pan to 180°C (356°F). Fry the battered squid in batches until lightly golden, about 2 minutes.
4 Second Fry for Extra Crisp
Increase the oil temperature slightly and fry the squid for a second time until crispy and golden brown, about 1 minute. Serve immediately.
