Plaa Lek Thod Grob" (
ปลาเล็กทอดกรอบ) are dried or fresh anchovies that are deep-fried until they are crispy. If dried fish is used,
it must be soaked briefly before frying, but not seasoned at all, as it has already been dried with salt. Fresh fish is usually seasoned with fish sauce and
coated in flour before deep-frying.
