About Popia cheese

Popia Cheese is a crispy snack that combines the flavors of Southeast Asian street food with creamy, savory cheese filling. Originating from variations of spring rolls in Malaysian cuisine, it features thinly rolled pastry sheets wrapped around a mixture of cheese and sometimes seasoning, then deep-fried for a golden crunch. While its addictive taste comes from the rich combination of crispy textures and molten cheese, it’s typically high in fat due to the frying process and cheese content. On the plus side, it contains protein from the cheese, and its small size makes it a manageable indulgence. To enhance its nutritional profile, baked variations and reduced-fat cheeses can be used. Enjoyed as a party appetizer or quick snack, Popia Cheese is loved for its irresistible balance of creamy and crunchy. Moderation is key to making it part of a balanced diet.
