Fraq’s is the whitewashed Maine-inspired shack off Tottenham Court Road. It serves three rolls (including lobster, and hot prawn and avocado), but its flavour-packed calamari in a soft bun, for our money, trounces its more expensive cousins. fraqslobstershack.com

Method
-
step 1
To make the tartare sauce, whizz the capers, pickles and mayo, then add a little lemon juice and season.
-
step 2
Clean the squid in cold running water. Cut them in half so that you have two flat pieces. Soak them in the beaten egg, then coat them in the breadcrumbs.
-
step 3
Pour olive oil to a depth of at least 1cm into a frying pan and put over a high heat. Fry in batches for about 1 minute on each side, or until they are golden and crisp. Lift onto a plate lined with paper towels to drain while frying the rest.
-
step 4
Lightly toast the burger buns so that they are crisp. Add a good dollop of the tartare sauce and plenty of lettuce leaves. Put the calamari on top of the lettuce, add a final spoon of the tartare sauce and a little squeeze of lemon, then close the bun.
