Shrimp chips, also known as prawn crackers, are made from a mixture of shrimp meat, tapioca starch, and seasonings. The mixture is usually formed into a dough log, then cut into thin slices, which are then dried. When these dried chips are deep-fried, they puff up dramatically, creating a light and crispy texture.
