Keropok ikan is a popular snack in Southeast Asia, particularly in Malaysia and Singapore. It's a type of fish cracker made from a mixture of fish, starch (usually tapioca or rice flour), and seasonings, which is then deep-fried to create a crispy and crunchy texture.
The fish used can vary, but commonly, it is made with fish like mackerel, anchovies, or other small fish. The crackers are often served as a side dish or snack, and they're a popular accompaniment to rice meals or enjoyed on their own as a crispy treat.
Keropok ikan is often available in various forms: as thin or thick slices, sometimes seasoned with additional flavors, and they can be found in various local markets or supermarkets.
