Arrowhead Crisps

"Ngaku" (arrowhead) crisps is one of the common local snacks during Chinese New Year. As CNY draws near, I will be usually busy in the kitchen helping up my mum to prepare this delicious crisp. As the prices is quite cheap nowadays, we'll usually buy in bulks...
The process is simple, but alot of time and effort has to be spent to get the end product. Thus, we break the process into a few parts, and each of us (in the family) will do our part. First, dad will peel off the skins...Here is it...the peeled arrowheads
Meanwhile I will do the slicing
And these are the sliced ones
Normally, mum will do the frying. We managed to complete with 2 big containers on last Saturday...
A closer shot, the fried crisps abit overheated, due to its golden brown colour...but anyway, it still tastes good!
