It is a thin crepe-like pancake made from wheat flour and stuffed with a filling made from a combination of julienned vegetables, shrimp, eggs, and other ingredients. It is usually served with a sweet and spicy sauce. Popiah is a great snack for those looking for a light yet flavourful and nutritious meal.

    • In a separate pan, quickly sauté chopped shrimps until pink and cooked through; set aside
    • Beat eggs, pour into a lightly greased pan, and cook as a thin omelette; slice into fine strips when cool
    • Lay a popiah skin flat on a plate or board
    • Arrange a layer of cooked vegetables, beansprouts, shrimps, and egg strips along one edge of the wrapper
    • Drizzle sweet and spicy sauce across the filling line
    • Fold the sides of the wrapper inward and roll tightly from the filling edge to enclose
