Calamares fritos con mayonesa especial (Fried squids with special mayonnaise)
May 5th, 2008 by Diego

The squids have an important place in the seafood-based peruvian cuisine. You can prepare it in a lot of ways, each one of them delicious and healthy. Of course, it’s best if you prepare fresh ones. Today, we have a course with a different mayonnaise (you’ll love it!). This recipe is for 4 to 6 people.
Ingredients:
- 12 to 14 squids, cleaned and cut in rings
- 2 cups of mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon of limo chili/pepper in paste (prepare the paste in the same way of ajà panca)
- 1 cup of natural yogurt, without sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon of powdered sugar
- 2 teaspoons of olive oil
- 1 teaspoon of Lea & Perrins sauce
- 1 tablespoon of parsley (for decoration)
- 1/2 teaspoon of fennel (for decoration)
- Flour
- Limes
- Vegetable oil
- Salt
- Pepper
Preparation:
Season the squids with salt and pepper. Flour and fry them until they get browned and crispy. Drain and put over a towel paper to remove the grease.
Mix the mayonnaise with the Dijon moustard, olive oil, aji limo, yogurt, Lea & Perrins sauce and powdered sugar. Use it to cover the squids and decorate with parsley and fennel. Or, if you want, you can serve the mayonnaise separated from the squids.
