Crispy Nori Chips
This crispy nori chips recipe uses whole leaf nori in its natural form, celebrating the texture and flavour of seaweed just as it's found along the shore. Quickly fried, the leaves become light and delicate, with a clean, mineral taste of the ocean. Naturally rich in iodine and vitamin B12, it's one of the simplest ways to learn how to make nori chips at home, and a great plant-based snack.
Instructions
- Pour the oil into a deep saucepan or fryer and heat to 180°C. Take care when working with hot oil and never leave it unattended.
- Break the dried whole leaf nori into small, bite sized pieces.
- Carefully lower a few pieces into the hot oil. Fry for around 10–20 seconds, until they become crisp and lightly puffed.
- Remove using a slotted spoon and transfer to a plate lined with paper towel to absorb excess oil.
- Continue frying in small batches, avoiding overcrowding the pan.
- Serve immediately while crisp.
