A handful of prawn crackers is a light, crispy snack originating from Southeast Asian cuisine, particularly popular in Indonesia, Malaysia, and Thailand. Made primarily from tapioca flour, prawn or shrimp extract, and seasoning, these crackers are deep-fried for their airy, crunchy texture. While prawn crackers are gluten-free and provide a source of protein from the shrimp content, their healthfulness is limited due to the high calorie and fat content from the frying process. They are low in fiber and enriched with salt, making them less suitable for those monitoring sodium intake. Prawn crackers are typically enjoyed as a snack, appetizer, or accompaniment to traditional dishes like Nasi Goreng or Satay. Moderation is key with prawn crackers, as their addictive crunch can easily lead to overindulgence.
