Steps

  1. Boil 100 ml water; meanwhile, dissolve 50 g tapioca starch with 3 tbsp water until completely smooth and lump-free.
  2. Once the water is fully boiling, turn off the heat, then pour in the tapioca slurry; stir quickly until it thickens into a starter paste (it should stay milky white, not turn too translucent).
  3. Blend 150 g mackerel with 100 ml water, 3 cloves garlic, 2 eggs, 1 1/2 tsp sugar, and 1 tsp ground pepper until smooth and starting to bind together.
  4. Add 2 tsp salt to the fish mixture and blend briefly again until it firms up, then stop.
  5. Weigh out some tapioca starch (start with about 50 g rather than all 550 g, since flour absorbency varies), then combine it with the fish mixture and the starter paste.
  6. Wash your hands, then knead the dough until the flour is fully absorbed and it becomes smooth, adding more flour gradually if it's still too soft.
  7. Roll the dough into a log, divide into 8 equal portions, and shape them to your preferred thickness.
  8. Arrange the logs in a steamer with about 2 cm of space between them (they'll expand as they steam), then steam for 20 minutes.
  9. Once done — the logs will puff up and then deflate slightly, meaning they're fully cooked — turn off the heat and remove; let cool at room temperature, then refrigerate overnight until firm (sun-dry the slices for 1-2 hours before frying if already sliced).
  10. Once firm from chilling overnight, slice the logs thinly.
  11. Heat 400 ml oil over low-medium heat, then fry the cracker slices until they puff up fully and turn white; remove and drain.
