Amplang, also known as kerupuk kuku macan, is an Indonesian traditional savoury fish cracker snack commonly found in Indonesia[2] and Malaysia.[3] Amplang crackers are commonly made of ikan tenggiri (wahoo) or any type of Spanish mackerel, mixed with starch and other materials before being deep-fried.[4]
The shape and size of amplang might vary, from traditional elongated "tiger nails" to dice or ping-pong balls. The colour may range from yellow to light brown.
