About Fried calamari balls
Fried Calamari Balls are a crispy and flavorful seafood dish inspired by Mediterranean and Italian cuisine. Made by combining finely chopped calamari with breadcrumbs, garlic, herbs like parsley, and sometimes cheese, the mixture is shaped into bite-sized balls, then deep-fried until golden brown. The calamari provides lean protein and essential nutrients like selenium and vitamin B12, while the addition of herbs can offer antioxidant benefits. However, the deep-frying process adds significant calories and fat, making it a less-than-ideal choice for frequent consumption if you're watching your fat intake. Pairing them with a fresh salad or a light dipping sauce can help balance the richness of the dish. Perfect as an appetizer or snack, Fried Calamari Balls offer a satisfying combination of textures and flavors that reflect their Mediterranean roots.
