Calamari.

Yes, it is a sandwich.

Enjoy a delicious twist on a classic seafood dish with this Air Fryer Calamari Sandwich. Crispy and tender calamari rings are sandwiched between toasted buns with fresh lettuce, juicy tomatoes, and creamy mayonnaise, creating a flavorful and satisfying meal.

Ingredients: 1 lb calamari rings. 1 cup breadcrumbs. 2 eggs, beaten. 1/2 cup all-purpose flour. 1/2 teaspoon salt. 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. 1/4 teaspoon paprika. 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder. 1/4 teaspoon onion powder. 4 sandwich buns. Lettuce leaves. Tomato slices. Mayonnaise. Lemon wedges for serving.

Instructions: Get the air fryer ready by heating it up to 375F 190C. Put the flour, beaten eggs, and breadcrumbs that have been mixed with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper into three shallow bowls. First, coat the calamari rings in the flour. Next, dip them in the eggs that have been beaten. Finally, cover them with the breadcrumb mixture and press it on gently to stick. Make sure the breaded calamari rings don't touch each other when you put them in the air fryer basket. Air fry the calamari for 8 to 10 minutes, turning it over every so often, until it's golden brown and crispy. Toast the sandwich buns a little while the calamari is cooking. Spread mayonnaise on the toasted buns, then put lettuce leaves, tomato slices, and crispy calamari rings on top of each other to make the sandwiches. Serve the calamari hot with lemon wedges to squeeze over it.

Ingredients: 2 large calamari tubes, cleaned and sliced into rings. 1 cup sushi rice, cooked. 2 tablespoons soy sauce. 1 tablespoon mirin. 1 tablespoon sesame oil. 1 tablespoon grated ginger. 1 tablespoon chopped green onions. 1/4 cup breadcrumbs. Salt and pepper to taste. Vegetable oil for frying.
