  2. 2 Pat all the seafood dry and then refrigerate for 15 minutes.
  3. 3 Toss the seafood evenly in the flour, shaking off any excess flour to create a thin coating.
  4. 4 Heat the oil to 180°C, then fry small batches for 2 minutes until golden brown and crispy without being chewy.
  5. 5 Remove from the oil and place on paper towels to drain, then sprinkle with salt while still hot.
  6. 6 Serve with a slice of lemon and eat within the first 5 minutes to enjoy the crispiness.
