Instructions for onion rings:
1. To prepare these super easy fried calamari, clean the calamari and wash thoroughly. Using a sharp knife cut the calamari in slices, approx. 1 cm each. This will create the rings. Place the calamari rings on some paper towels to get rid of the excess water.
2. Prepare the seasoning for the fried calamari. In a blender add the seasoning and pulse until powdered.
3. In a large sandwich bag or tupperware add the flour and seasoning. Place the sliced calamari inside and shake well to coat (you will need to do this in batches). Remove the calamari onto a plate, shaking off any excess flour.
4. Pour enough vegetable oil into a medium sized frying pan to deep fry the calamari. Heat the oil to medium high heat until it begins to bubble. Test if the oil is hot enough by dipping one of the calamari rings in; if it sizzles the oil is ready. Fry the calamari in batches for about 2-3 minutes, until nicely golden.
5. Remove the fried calamari using a slotted spoon and place on some paper towels to dry for 1-2 minutes. Have a taste and sprinkle with some more salt.
6. Enjoy this delicious recipe with a final squeeze of lemon.

Instructions for bacon wrapped goat cheese:
1. First, place two strips of bacon crosswise. Place in the middle and season with a dab of honey, thyme, a few flakes of salt and a pinch of black pepper.
2. Then, use the bacon to cover the goat’s cheese.
3. To prevent the cheese from melting and the bacon from burning, grill the goat’s cheese at a temperature of about 160°C. After about 8-9 minutes it should be perfectly cooked and can be removed from the heat.
