How to prepare Batter fried squids

To prepare these mouth watering batter fried squids, you would need
the below listed Ingredients.

1 lb fresh squid bodies
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1/2 teaspoon lime juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
Beer Batter

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper (cayenne)
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 cup cold regular or nonalcoholic beer

Vegetable oil for deep frying

To prepare Garlic-Lemon Mayonnaise

1 cup mayonnaise
1 clove garlic, peeled
Juice of 1/2 lemon
Salt and black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil leaves.

Directions
Thoroughly rinse squid; pat dry. Cut into 1/4-inch rings; place in medium bowl. Add 2 chopped   garlic cloves, the lime juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt and black pepper to taste; stir to coat. Cover; refrigerate at least 30 minutes to marinate. Meanwhile, in deep bowl, mix 1 cup of the flour, the olive oil, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, the red pepper and black pepper to taste. Slowly add beer, stirring gently until batter is smooth. Cover; refrigerate 30 minutes. In food processor, place mayonnaise, 1 garlic clove and the lemon juice. Cover; process until garlic is chopped and mixture is blended. Transfer to small bowl;  season with salt and black pepper. Stir in basil. Cover; refrigerate until serving time. In deep fryer or heavy saucepan, heat 2 inches vegetable oil to 375°F. In shallow bowl, place remaining 1 cup flour. Dip squid rings in flour, shaking off excess, then coat completely with beer batter. Fry squid in batches in hot oil until deep golden brown, about 2 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Serve calamari hot with Garlic-Lemon Mayonnaise.

Some Tips that will help
Keep calamari warm on a cookie sheet in a 250°F oven while you're frying the rest. Don't overcrowd the pan while frying. You can use this same beer batter and cooking method with any of your favorite seafood and vegetables.
