HELLO everyone out there ! If you are bored and find that you have really got nothing better to do, why not try to make crispy crispy ? It's simple, effortless and cheap to make ! It tastes superb too ! Welcome to the blog where I will reveal the secret receipe to the making of crispy crispy !

The origins of crispy crispy

Crispy crispy originated from Malaysia, when one fine day my cousin got married and my aunty did it. My mom brought it back from Penang and I ate it... WOOOO ~ I got addicted even though it was pretty sinful and oily. At one point of time making crispy crispy was the "IN" thing among my aunties. Even my 4th and 6th aunties started to do when they got back from the wedding.

When I asked what was that golden deep fried thing called, no one knew. It was when I went to my 4th aunty house and made it a few months ago and shared it with my classmates from the french class. When they asked me what was it called, I came up with the name "Crispy crispy" cos when you take the first bite, it goes "krrraaaacccck" (the sound of the crisp).

Aiya ok looks like I've really got nothing better to do here. Well, apart from chionging my HK drama, the other thing I'd do is blog. =/ I'm really dreading next monday ! Don't wanna go back to school :'(

Anyways, 3 weeks ago I went to jii house but first I waited for jii at the bus-stop outside NP cos I didn't know how to go to her house by car ! ( I went to her house again yesterday and this time I got lost =x I almost went to Woodlands.) We had Ya Kun for breakfast and I will never eat Ya Kun again cos I'm really sick of it. Imagine, 2 eggs, 1 cup of milo, 2 kaya toast.. Gosh I'm gonna puke.

Things needed:

Then we went to NTUC to get the popiah skins and sugar ice-ing or ice-ing sugar.. whatever you call it lah.

So we need:

• popiah skins
• fine ice-ing sugar
• egg white
• 2 fine pair of hands
  

Methods:

First, sit at any comfortable position that you like, the thing is, you must be comfortable and relaxed so that the outcome would turn out right. (ok this is bull shit. Just sit however you like.)

So you peel the skins and shove it to the other person to get it rolling. =x I'm the peeler and jii is the roller.

Okay, like I said, sit at any position you like and get on with work ! Ignore the pack of roast duck, it's not meant to add flavourings into the crispy x2.

Next, before you roll, fold the skin to about 3/4 and then from there you roll and leave a bit of space so that you and apply the egg white on it to seal it.. so that it wont come off when you go on the the next stage, deep frying.

Oh ! And don't roll until too tight, you must let it breathe. The inside will not be cooked if you rolled it too tight.

When you finished all, the result must be like that, something similar to the picture below. If it's not the same, then something must have gone wrong.

Cut the skins to small pieces before you let them down into the frying pan. Becareful of the oil splattering.

Before you fry, lay down lots of newspapers on the floor and around the cooking area if you afraid that oil will splatter everywhere, otherwise if you don't mind cleaning up, then don't put newspaper. Get an adult to do so if you can't do it =x

Then put an amountful of oil and let it be heated for awhile and then let it fry until it turns golden brown.

Take lots of "xi yiu zi" the tissue used in the kitchen (I suggest you prepare 1 whole roll) when you take the crispyx2 from the pan. You should have something like that below.

Then put the ice-ing sugar and mix them evenly. It depends how sweet you want it to be. And ta-dah you let it cool down and put into the bottles and voila !

Very easy right. :D
