Seaweed snack

Being the only snack we made this year!  Normally I'd have a few types going as I want to make CNY more memorable for the girls.  This year the pineapple jam was ready, but after that we couldn't go home for a month due to the movement control order.  I'd planned to finish making the pineapple jam balls at my parents' place.  Then the CNY SOP was announced and we were going home for CNY.  So I decided to finish off the pineapple ones at home instead since we'd have a few days home with literally nowhere to go.

Then last minute our neighbour gave us a tub of pineapple tarts. To avoid an overdose of pineapple (some more we wouldn't be having visitors), the pineapple jam is now still safe in the freezer haha.  Will get to it another time.

So we just made these seaweed crackers.  I forgot our usual amount was a 40-pc pack of springroll skin and 2 packs of 10-pc seaweed.... went and bought double. :)  Got to 150% before realising the 'problem'!  It was so funny... we were wondering how come it was taking so long and there was still so much springroll skin left.

Crunch!

Luckily this snack is a popular one.  Finished off yesterday, 28 Feb.

  1. yea, this snack is so popular that it is the first 'gone' every year. Both SE & JE are so skinny, they can crunch on these anytime and still wouldn't gain weight.

    1. I try to stuff them with calories, tempt them with all kinds of food. Haha. SE eats better than JE so I don't try so hard.

  2. No worry, you have 2 growing up girls to help finish the seaweed snack in no time. I too won't mind snacking on this snack because it is very addictive.

    1. I was slightly worried coz the more you see of something, the less you feel like eating it! Anyway brought a few tubs to my parents' place and now it's all gone.

  3. Good that at least you made one snack with both SE and JE. Did they enjoy making this snack? From the photos, look like they enjoy eating the seaweed snacks. How many containers did you make? Double the usual amount by using up all the popiah skin that you bought?

    1. Err by now forgotten haha. 7? 8? If hadn't brought to my parents' place then wouldn't have been able to finish before we got sick of looking at them.

      Well stopped at 150%. Remaining springroll skin and seaweed to be used up in normal cooking.
