Instructions
 

  • Start by cleaning the pork skin thoroughly. Remove any excess fat or hair from the skin.
  • Cut the pork skin into small, bite-sized pieces or strips, whichever you prefer.
  • In a bowl, combine the fish sauce, soy sauce, and salt. Mix well until the salt is dissolved.
  • Place the pork skin pieces in a large bowl and pour the sauce mixture over them. Toss well to ensure the pork skin is evenly coated.
  • Let the pork skin marinate in the sauce for at least 30 minutes, or you can refrigerate it overnight for more flavor.
  • Heat vegetable oil in a deep-fryer or a large pot over medium-high heat. Make sure there's enough oil to fully submerge the pork skin pieces.
  • Carefully add the marinated pork skin into the hot oil, in small batches. Fry until they turn golden and crispy, usually around 5-7 minutes. Stir occasionally to ensure even frying.
  • Once crispy, remove the Khaep mu from the oil using a slotted spoon or tongs, and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  • Repeat the frying process with the remaining pork skin pieces until they're all cooked.
  • Allow the Khaep mu to cool slightly before serving. They can be enjoyed as a snack on their own or as a topping for salads, soups, or rice dishes.
