Keropok lekor (; Jawi: ) is a traditional Malay fish cracker snack originating from the state of Terengganu, Malaysia. It is made from fish and sago flour and seasoned with salt and sugar. It is slightly greyish and gives off a fishy taste and smell which becomes more prominent as it cools down after frying. The word lekor is said to be derived from a Terengganu Malay word meaning "to roll".
It is usually made by grinding fish or vegetables into a paste, mixing it with sago, and then deep-frying it. It comes in three main forms: lekor (long and chewy), rebus (steamed), and keping (thin and crispy).
