About Prawn paste pancakes

Prawn Paste Pancakes are a savory delicacy originating from Southeast Asian cuisine, often celebrated in Malaysian, Indonesian, and Thai food traditions. Made by blending prawn paste—a fermented seafood product rich in umami—with a pancake batter of flour, eggs, and water, these pancakes offer a unique combination of intense flavor and fluffy texture. Often enjoyed as a street food or appetizer, they may also include vegetables or herbs for added depth. While prawn paste is an excellent source of protein and essential minerals like zinc and selenium, these pancakes can be high in sodium due to the fermentation process of the paste. Additionally, depending on preparation, they may contain high amounts of fat from frying. For a healthier option, some recipes substitute whole-grain flour and use less oil. Prawn Paste Pancakes are ideal for those seeking bold flavors and a fusion of traditional culinary techniques.
