- 2 tablespoons crushed red pepper flakes
- Salt and pepper
- 2 pounds fresh clean squid, cut into ringlets, with tentacles
- 3 cups flour
- Deep frying vegetable oil
Instructions
- Preheat fryer with deep frying oil to 325 degrees.
- Drain excess liquid from tomatoes. Crush by hand into smaller pieces. In a small pot or casserole, heat olive oil. Saute garlic briefly, taking care not to brown the garlic. Add the red pepper flakes and tomatoes and season with salt and pepper. Simmer for 20 minutes.
