(1)

Crispy Seaweed Crackers 紫菜春卷脆饼

Brush one side of the wrapper with some egg white, place a piece of seaweed over, brush egg white again and place another spring roll wrapper over, finally brush egg white again and sprinkle sesame seeds over. Cut into desired size and deep fried in hot oil till lightly brown and crisp. Note : This crackers won't take long to be ready....keep an eye on them constantly to prevent over browning.
