I have never had the chance to deal with one of these monsters, so my experience goes as far as the regular size squid you can find anywhere. Much easier task I would assume.

My recipe is quite similar, less the anchovies, plus potatoes, it becomes an excellent soup to have on a cold winter night.

I will try this recipe as soon as possible, thanks for sharing!

2 Cups Buttermilk
2# Chopped up Squid Parts
2 cloves Garlic
1/4 chopped onion
2T Red Hot Hot sauce
2 Cups Panko Bread crumbs
2 Eggs
2 Cups soy flour ( or all purpose)
4 Cups Veggie oil for frying

1. Soak Squid in buttermilk at least 24 hours
2. Place Squid, garlic, onion and hot sauce in a food processor till it looks like pudding (don’t worry this will turn out fantastic!)
3. Scoop 1 Tablespoon at a time into flour,eggs then panko bread crumbs, set aside on clean plate till oil reaches 375 degrees.
4. Fry about 2-3 minutes or till golden brown.Place on paper towel to drain excess oil.
5. Keep warm in 180 degree oven till served
Serve with cocktail sauce or any favorite dipping sauce.

* Note- It’s almost impossible to mess this up and you don’t have to worry about over cooking, because the squid is ground up.

This recipe can also be baked at 350 degrees for about 15-20 minutes if you don’t want to fry it.

Hope this is helpful!
Enjoy!
