Manora Fried Crab Chips


The idea of seafood in chips is not a new one, anyone who has been to a good Asian restaurant has seen and eaten shrimp chips. This Thai version is made from fresh crab meat bound with tapioca starch and then fried. Quite interesting in taste and consistency, it's a good alternative to the potato based chips we are all used to. I've found these in a number of Chinese supermarkets.

That looks really good! I haven't seen them around the Chinese market here (California). But I will take a good look down the snack aisle now.

There is also a fish meat version, that I have not tried.
