INSTRUCTIONS
In a food processor, combine the mayonnaise, anchovies, lemon juice,
parsley and cayenne. Blend until smooth. Transfer the sauce to a bowl and
refrigerate, covered tightly, for up to 2 days, until ready to serve. Cut
the squid into 1/3-inch rings. If the tentacles are large, halve or quarter
them lengthwise. Refrigerate until ready to use. In a heavy-bottomed
straight-sided 3-quart saucepan, about 8 inches in diameter, heat the oil
to 360 degrees. In a shallow bowl, combine the flour and graham cracker
crumbs. Toss 1/3 of the squid in the flour mixture to coat evenly. Shake
the squid in a mesh strainer to shed extra coating. Using tongs or a
slotted spoon, gently lower each batch of calamari into the hot oil and fry
until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain
on paper towels. Sprinkle with salt. The cooked squid can be kept warm in a
low oven while you continue. Check your oil temperature and repeat with
remaining calamari. Serve hot with chilled anchovy mayonnaise. This recipe
yields 2 servings.
