Instructions:

1. In a shallow dish, combine the all-purpose flour, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to combine. Dip the squid rings into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off.
2. Coat the squid rings in the seasoned flour mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated on all sides. Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet or frying pan to 350°F (175°C).
3. Carefully place the coated calamari rings into the hot oil, a few at a time, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry the calamari rings for 2-3 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
4. Using a slotted spoon or tongs, remove the fried calamari rings from the oil and transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil. Repeat the frying process with the remaining calamari rings, working in batches as needed.
5. Once all the calamari rings are fried, serve them hot with lemon wedges and your choice of dipping sauce, such as marinara sauce or aioli. Enjoy the crispy goodness of homemade calamari rings, perfect as a crowd-pleasing appetizer or a tasty snack any time of day.
