Cassava Crackers

You can buy prefried cassava crackers, but we prefer the superior flavor we get when we fry our own.

Unfried puffed cassava crackers, in packages of 30

1. Pour vegetable oil into a wok or a medium heavy pot to a depth of 2" and heat over medium-high heat until temperature registers 375º on a candy thermometer. Add several cassava crackers at a time to the hot oil and fry them until puffed and pale golden, about 30 seconds. Let crackers drain on a metal rack (they will darken as they cool).

MAKES ABOUT 30
