Hi guys,today we're gonna look at Keropok Lekor, also known as Lekor.It's a traditional fish cracker snack for the Malay people in Terengganu, Malaysia. It is also called fish sausage, fish stick, or fish fritters.It is slightly greyish in colour and tastes fishy.The fishy smell increases when it cools down, so it's best to eat it while it's warm!

Lekor is made from fish and sago flour and seasoned with salt and sugar. It is usually made by grinding fish or vegetables into a paste, mixing it with sago and then deep-frying it. It comes in three main forms: lekor (which is long and chewy), losong (steamed) and keping (which is thin and crispy). It is frequently served with dipping sauces,especially chilli sauce.(my favourite)

There are two types of Keropok Lekor; Keropok Lekor Goreng and Keropok Lekor Keping. Keropok Lekor Goreng is shaped into sausage size and tastes more chewy, whereas Keropok Lekor Keping is shaped into slices and has crispier texture.
