About Rabas

Rabas, commonly known as fried squid or calamari, is a popular dish rooted in Mediterranean and Spanish cuisine. This savory appetizer features squid rings or strips coated in seasoned flour or batter and deep-fried to golden perfection. Squid itself is a nutrient-rich seafood, providing lean protein, essential vitamins like B12 and minerals such as selenium and phosphorus. However, the frying process increases the calorie and fat content, making it less ideal for heart-healthy diets if consumed frequently or in large portions. Rabas is best enjoyed as part of a balanced diet, especially when paired with fresh lemon juice or a light dipping sauce to enhance flavor while keeping additional calories minimal. Many variations exist, including baked or air-fried alternatives, which can be a healthier twist on this beloved dish without sacrificing taste or texture.
