Instructions

  1. 1

    Finely chop the dried shrimp using a knife or a mortar and pestle.

    ~2 min
  2. 2

    In a large bowl, combine the chopped dried shrimp, garlic powder, chili powder, salt, sugar, and black pepper. Mix well to create the seasoning blend.

    ~1 min
  3. 3

    Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat until it reaches approximately 350°F (175°C).

    ~5 min
  4. 4

    Carefully add wonton wrappers to the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for 1-2 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy.

    ~4 min
  5. 5

    Using a slotted spoon, remove the fried wonton wrappers from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

    ~1 min
  6. 6

    While the wrappers are still warm, immediately toss them in the prepared seasoning blend until evenly coated. You may need to do this in batches.

    ~1 min
  7. 7

    Let the seasoned crackers cool completely before serving.

    ~1 min

Tips

  • For an extra kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the seasoning mix. Adjust chili powder to your spice preference.
  • Store cooled crackers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. They are best enjoyed fresh for optimal crispiness.
