¼ cup mayonnaise

METHOD

1. Crush the Lay’s Potato Chips Chinese 5 Spice Flavour in their bag until you have 2 cups of crushed chips. Set 1 cups aside for coating.

2. In a large bowl, combine the chicken mince, egg, 2 cups crushed Lay’s Potato Chips and soy sauce. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.

3. Using your hands, shape the mixture into small meatballs, about the size of 2 tablespoons.

4. Place the remaining 1 cup of crushed chips in a shallow dish. Roll each meatball in the crushed chips to coat evenly.

5. Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add the meatballs in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.

6. Fry the meatballs for about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are golden brown and cooked through.

7. In a small bowl, mix together the mayo, sweet chili sauce, and sriracha and set aside.

8. Transfer the fried meatballs to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil. Serve them hot with the optional dipping sauce on the side. For the ultimate snack experience, arrange the meatballs on a platter with other Asian-inspired snacks, and ENJOY!
