fried seafood

The Puntillitas Fritas or fried baby squid as they are called in English is a very popular food from Southern Spain. 

Even though there is not a particular date of creation of this dish, it is believed that sailors from third-century A.C were the first ones to introduce different types of fried fish plates and since then they haven’t left the spotlight of Andalusian cuisine.
