What Is Kripik Usus Ayam?

Kripik usus ayam is an Indonesian cracker made from chicken intestine, coated in seasoned flour and deep-fried until shatteringly crisp. It is a specialty of Indonesian street food and snack culture, where offal is transformed into crunchy, moreish treats. The chicken intestine is cleaned thoroughly, boiled until tender, then dipped in a spiced batter and fried — the result is a light, savoury cracker with a texture similar to kerupuk but with a deeper, chicken-rich flavour. SS Mart prepares kripik usus ayam in small Melbourne batches using traditional Indonesian methods.

Ingredients: Chicken intestine, rice flour, tapioca flour, garlic, coriander, salt, vegetable oil. The defining ingredient is chicken intestine, which gives the crackers their distinctive chicken flavour and slightly chewy-to-crisp texture.

Allergen Information: Made in a facility that handles nuts, soy, gluten and shrimp. No artificial colours and no preservatives added.

Flavour Profile: Kripik usus ayam is crunchy, savoury and moreish. The first impression is the crunch — shatteringly crisp from the deep-frying. The flavour is lightly chicken-rich, with garlic and coriander adding aromatic warmth. The flour coating is seasoned just enough to enhance the chicken flavour without overpowering it. There is no heat in the cracker itself — the spice comes from the sambal you pair it with. It is a snack that rewards generous dipping.

How to Use Kripik Usus Ayam: Kripik usus ayam is a ready-to-eat snack — open the pack and enjoy. Serve it as a standalone crunch snack, or set it out at gatherings and parties. It makes an excellent side for steamed rice and noodle dishes, adding crunch and texture. For the full Indonesian experience, dip the crackers into sambal — sambal teri, sambal ebi or sambal bajak all work well. It also pairs with a cold drink as an afternoon snack.

Pairing Ideas:

• Dip into Sambal Bajak 140g for a crunchy-and-spicy combo
• Dip into Sambal Teri 130g for a double-crunch pairing
• Serve alongside steamed rice and grilled chicken
• Set out at parties and gatherings with other Indonesian snacks
• Enjoy with a cold drink as an afternoon snack

Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Once opened, keep sealed in an airtight container to maintain crunch. Consume within 2-4 weeks once opened. Do not refrigerate — moisture will soften the crackers.
