Who can't eat without crackers ? Yup, for some people, crackers are a complement to food that adds deliciousness. The texture is crispy and the taste is delicious, making many people addicted to it.
One of the keys to the deliciousness of crackers lies in their crunchy texture. However, to get a crunchy texture like that, crackers must be fried in lots of hot oil. With a special frying technique, the crackers can expand and become crispier.
Unfortunately, many people are reluctant to make and fry their own crackers because the process is complicated. Apart from that, frying crackers also wastes oil. It's not surprising that some people choose to buy crackers that are ready to eat.
In fact, if you use the right frying technique, the oil used will be more economical, you know. A TikTok user @ummu_balqis_haura once shared a trick for frying crackers to save more oil. Apart from that, the technique used makes the crackers crispier, you know.
Reported by BrilioFood from TikTok @ummu_balqis_haura on Wednesday (31/7), the frying technique used is to fry the crackers from the side. So, he didn't immediately dip the crackers into the hot oil that had been prepared.

For more details, prepare a frying pan filled with oil and heat it. If so, slightly dip the tip of the cracker into the side of the pan. After that, press the center using a spatula. So, fry these parts until they expand and become crispy.

When they are crispier, turn them to the other side of the crackers, which are still raw. You can use two spatulas to do this process. Gradually rotate the crackers around the edge of the pan until all parts are fully expanded.

If they have cracked evenly, immediately remove the crackers and drain. Well, a frying technique like this will make the crackers crack perfectly. Apart from that, crackers don't absorb too much oil. That way, you don't need to refill cooking oil when frying large quantities of crackers.
