How to prepare squid in an air fryer
Let’s start preparing the squid in an air fryer. Clean the squid by removing the innards and the transparent cartilage found in the squid’s back—just pull it out. With a knife, remove the beak and eyes. You can ask your fishmonger to do this if you’re not very experienced. Then wash them well under running water.
Place a tray on the air fryer basket and put the squid in, then add a few puffs of extra virgin olive oil.
Cook in the air fryer at 356°F for 10 minutes, turning the squid halfway through cooking.
Once cooked, place the squid on a plate, adjust the salt, and add a splash of oil. Serve them hot.
