Method
Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Shrimp
Peel and devein the raw shrimp, ensuring to remove the shells and any sand veins. Rinse them under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.
- 2
Blend the Ingredients
In a food processor, combine the prepared shrimp, tapioca flour, rice flour, salt, white pepper, and garlic powder. Blend until you achieve a smooth paste.

Form the Mixture
Transfer the shrimp mixture to a bowl. Using your hands or a spatula, form the mixture into a log shape, approximately 1 inch in diameter.
- 4
Wrap and Chill
Wrap the log tightly in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until firm.
Cooking
- 5
Slice the Log
Once firm, remove the log from the refrigerator and unwrap it. Use a sharp knife to slice the log into thin discs, about 1/8 inch thick.
- 6
Heat the Oil
In a deep frying pan or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. The oil should be hot enough that a small piece of dough sizzles when added.
- 7
Fry the Chips
Carefully add a few slices of the shrimp mixture to the hot oil. Fry them until they puff up and turn golden brown, about 1-2 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove them and drain on paper towels.

Repeat
Continue frying the remaining slices in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Allow the chips to cool completely before serving.
