Filipino Calamares is one of the Philippines most famous dishes, either with rice or with ice cold beer, as pulutan that is. It is also one of the easier Filipino dishes to cook. Perhaps this explains the increasing popularity of street vendors selling calamares nowadays.

Serves 5 to 6 person
Preparation time: 20 to 30 mins.
Cooking time: 20 to 25 mins

Filipino Calamares Ingredients:

  • Pinoy calamares 1 kg medium sized Squid
  • 2 egg whites
  • 1 cup plain (all-purpose) flour
  • 1 cup oil
  • Juice of 5 calamansi (lime)

  • Salt
  • Pepper

Filipino Calamares Cooking Instructions:

  • Clean the Squid, remove the head, ink sacs and tentacles discarded, outer purple skin peeled off and do not cut squid open.

  • Slice squid into ½ inch rings. Marinate in calamansi juice for about 25 minutes.

  • Dip squid rings in egg whites, then dredge in flour.

  • Heat oil in a wok and fry squid rings in hot oil a few pieces at a time until they turn golden yellow, about 1 minute. Do not overcook as this will make the squid tough.

    i tried it and its not yummy. i think you dont have to mariade he squid to the calamansi juice for a long time. 10-15 mins maybe is enough. then u also have to add salt before cooking it. instead of egg white, how about trying it with egg yolks???
