Ingredients

Techniques
- 480 ml sunflower oil
- 2 whole cod fillets
- 2 whole squid tubes
- 16 whole raw jumbo shrimp
Heat a large fry pan over medium to medium-high heat, about 7 of 10, with the sunflower oil; heat about 10 minutes.
Heating the frying oil
Pat the thawed seafood completely dry with paper towels.
- 120 g all purpose flour
- sea salt
Whisk the flour with a little sea salt in a large bowl; coat the cod, then shake it in a fine sieve to remove the excess flour. Repeat with the squid rings and the shrimp.
Fry the cod first, in a single layer, 3 to 4 minutes until golden all around; drain on a wire rack set over paper towels.
Keep the fried seafood warm under foil or in an oven at its lowest setting.
Strain the oil through a fine sieve into a bowl to reuse.
- 2 whole lemon wedges
- fresh parsley
Arrange each kind of seafood in its own section on a platter; season with a little sea salt and garnish with lemon wedges and fresh parsley. Serve with a crunchy baguette and cold beer.
