- Prepare the Parsley Aioli: In a food processor fitted with the steel blade, combine the egg yolk, lemon juice, mustard, vinegar, and garlic. With the machine running, slowly pour the extra virgin olive oil in a slow, steady stream through the feed tube. The mix will emulsify into a mayonnaise. Add in the herbs, and process to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Remove the aioli to a small bowl, cover, and keep refrigerated. (Makes 1 c.)
- Prepare gremolata: In a small bowl, combine the parsley, horseradish, and lemon zest; set aside.
- In a medium bowl, combine the flour, paprika, salt, pepper, and cayenne; set aside.
- To cook the squid, heat 2 inches of oil to 375 degrees in a straight-sided pot. Be sure not to fill your pot more than halfway up the side with oil, because it will foam during frying.
- Pat the squid dry, and toss in the seasoned flour mix to coat. Let stand 1 minute. Shake the floured squid in a sieve to remove any excess flour. Fry in batches, without crowding, till golden, 1 to 1 1/2 min. Drain the squid on paper towels. (Frying a batch of squid will bring the temperature of the oil down. Be sure to reheat the oil in between batches and check the temperature again with a deep-fry thermometer before adding more squid.)
- Season squid with salt and pepper. Sprinkle the gremolata over squid. Serve immediately with aioli and lemon wedges.
- This recipe yields 6 to 8 servings.
