Don't laugh at Indonesians.
SGreans - please be careful about You Char Kway (Yutiao) and other fried crispy snacks in Hawker Centres. That you buy and eat often. Especially beware temporary deep fried food stalls in pasar malams.

You don't see them frying plastic?
In SG it could have been pre-mixed already in the flour.
try this stunt in sg and govt will fine you. they got take the food for testing.

in sg they use different combination of flour for youtiao.

Chemical crispy additives in flour, like hydrocolloids, are used to improve the crispness and texture of fried foods, and also to help maintain crispness after frying or storage.

As far as I know SFA never sent anyone to test the temporary stalls that appear for 1 week in heartlands pasar malams.

the plastic mentioned in this thread are from plastic bags and plastic bottles. you never see does not mean govt never send the food for testing.

if you caught any hawker cooking plastic bottle in the oil then you should report them.
They are not so dumb in SG.
There are many ways to achieve the same result.
In Indonesia there is no enforcement, so who cares? They don't bother to hide it.
