Salt and Chilli Pepper Calamari

Salt and pepper calamari is such a popular dish in Australia. It is so easy to make at home as long as you have the freshest ingredient. We shallow fry instead of deep fry our calamari but it does not lack any flavour! The Rainbow Seaweed Chilli is a great touch at the end with a hint of pepper and tangy sumac! Perfect for warm weather!

With any seafood recipe, fresh is key! A shout out to The Fish Shoppe who sells 100% Australian and New Zealand seafood, the best place to get sustainable seafood. You can also find out products in their retail outlets!
