Borneo Prawn Crackers

Born in the riverine communities of Samarinda in the 1970s, Amplang began as a way to make use of abundant freshwater fish. As this Bornean snack tradition travelled to Sabah’s east coast—especially Tawau—local makers developed their own seafood variations.

Our Amplang Prawn adapts that heritage style with finely prepared prawn, sago flour and traditional spices, fried until light and crisp. The result is fragrant and savoury, with a delicate prawn character in every bite.

Deeply tied to Sabah’s fishing heritage and coastal culture, Amplang Prawn is more than a snack—it is a crunchy piece of Borneo’s culinary history.
