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.
