LEAH's Kitchen: Fried Crabsticks

This was an impromptu idea. I came across this snack few months back in one of the FB group that I was following, and these crabsticks pictures were floating around during the CNY period. So when I was shopping for the honey cornflakes ingredients and saw the packets of Dodo crabsticks, I thought to myself "Hey, why not we have these for New Year?". Little did I know that making these #friedcrabsticks will suck out all our effort and perseverance.

Again, I use my helper (sweet hubby) to assist me with peeling those crabstick skin. Imagine, in each packet there are 12 sticks, cut into 2 pieces, multiply by 5 packets. We peeled 120 individual crabsticks into approx. 1cm flat pieces. Gawd!

Fried Crabsticks

 

Ingredients:

5 x packets of Dodo crabstick

Cooking Oil

Paper Towel

 

Instructions:

1. Cut all crabsticks into half.

2. Peel crabstick skin into approx. 1cm width and place it on a tray.

3. While at it, deep fry those skins which have already been air-dried till golden brown and crispy.

4. Place fried crabsticks on clean paper towel to absorb the oil.

5. Store in air-tight container after crabsticks have cooled down.

 

 

My Healthy Rating:

These crabsticks are made of flour, which technically means carbohydrate. Definitely not a healthy type of snack for those who are self-conscious.
