Prawn Crackers (Keropok)

Prawn Crackers (Keropok)s are thin, crunchy crackers traditionally made from tapioca starch and flavored with shrimp or prawn and are popular as a snack in Southeast Asian cuisines (often called keropok, krupuk or prawn crackers). They are known for their light, brittle texture and umami seafood flavor, commonly served alongside meals or as a snack. As a snack, Prawn Crackers (Keropok)s are energy-dense at 426kcal per 100g and are primarily a source of carbohydrate and fat rather than protein; they provide some fiber but are not a significant source of vitamins or minerals. The shrimp flavoring can contribute small amounts of marine minerals such as selenium and iodine, but these are modest in the context of the portion size. From a nutritional standpoint they are a highly processed snack with a profile typical of fried crackers: convenient and tasty but best eaten in moderation. For a similar crunchy snack with more nutritional benefit, consider swaps like air-popped popcorn, roasted chickpeas, or wholegrain rice crackers.Read more
