Fried Calamari with Spicy Anchovy Mayonnaise

3/4 cup of Jarred mayonnaise
4 -  5 Anchovy fillets
2 tablespoons of lemon juice
1 tablespoon of finely-chopped parsley
1/2 teaspoon of cayenne
1 pound of fresh, clean squid
4 cups of light olive oil or vegetable
1 cup of all-purpose flour
1 cup of graham cracker crumbs
1 teaspoon of Kosher salt

In a food processor, combine the mayonnaise, anchovies, lemon juice, parsley and cayenne. Blend until smooth. Transfer the sauce to a bowl and refrigerate, covered tightly, for up to 2 days, until ready to serve. Cut the squid into 1/3-inch rings. If the tentacles are large, halve or quarter them lengthwise. Refrigerate until ready to use. In a heavy-bottomed straight-sided 3-quart saucepan, about 8 inches in diameter, heat the oil to 360ºF.  In a shallow bowl, combine the flour and graham cracker crumbs. Toss 1/3 of the squid in the flour mixture to coat evenly. Shake the squid in a mesh strainer to shed extra coating. Using tongs or a slotted spoon, gently lower each batch of calamari into the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with salt. The cooked squid can be kept warm in a low oven while you continue. Check your oil temperature and repeat with remaining calamari. Serve hot with chilled anchovy mayonnaise. This recipe yields 2 servings.
