Today’s Photohunt theme is “half”.
This is a half portion (media ración) of breaded & fried baby squid (puntillitas), as served at La Primera del Puente in Sevilla. Can you imagine what a full portion looks like?

Mmmmm squid!
I had lobster ravioli this evening and it was wonderful. However, for the last few hours, my mouth has been feeling as though I have a rash. I hope to God that I haven’t suddenly developed an allergy to seafood! I can’t LIVE without seafood once a week (at least)!

A full sized portion would be too much but a half portion looks just right! 🙂

Well, for the record, I think that would be a full racion at most tapa bars – this place happens to be more generous. And yes, it is best shared with others. Nog and I ordered these after sharing a couple of tapas and it was quite an effort finishing them off.
The best puntillitas are just like this – lightly breaded and fried, tender on the inside, crispy and *dry* on the outside, not a hint of greasiness. Squeeze on a bit of lemon and mmmmm…

Si, I can imagine that a full portion will result in half eaten.
So then 1/2 portion is the right thing to order;)

I am so hungry and this is not helping at all. Right now I think I could eat the full ‘half’ portion. 🙂

That looked really tasty. As well as large. But mostly tasty.

Yes. And my imagination is making me drool.
At the moment I’m struggling with goat-cheese sandwiches. I had my braces tightened this morning, and eating is painful. I normally like crusty bread.
TRiG.

Well, I made the mistake of preparing this dish at home for the first time a couple of weeks ago … I had no idea THE EYES on those tiny squid were so big! I was totally grossed out and haven’t been able to order puntillitas since.
