Ingredients

  • 2 cups vegetable oil for frying
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 0.5 tablespoons salt
  • 0.5 tablespoons ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 pound squid , cleaned and cut into 1/2 inch rings

Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat oil in a saucepan or deep-fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

  2. 2

    Pour buttermilk into a medium bowl. In a separate bowl, stir together the flour, salt, pepper and oregano. Dip squid rings into the buttermilk, then into the seasoned flour.
