- 1 cup vegetable cooking oil (for frying)
- ½ cup cornstarch or flour

- Soak the collected snails in water for 24 hours to remove undigested food. Remove the dead "golden" Kuhol.
- Boil the snailsl in large container for 20-30 minutes. Boiling makes it easier to remove the flesh from the shell.

- Mix the following ingredients (1 tsp. black pepper, ¼ cup soy sauce, 3 tbsp. vinegar, 3 cloves garlic, and 1-2 red chilli) with the "golden" Kuhol.
- Marinade for 24 hours.
- Sun dry the marinated snails for 2-3 days or place in the oven at 40°C for 48 hours.
- Deep fry in vegetable cooking oil for 2 minutes.
- Air-dry the prepared snails for 3 days. Such snails can be stored. Optional: Roll the snails in batter (cornstarch or flour with egg mixture) before final cooking.
- For final cooking, deep fry again for 5 minutes or until the "golden" Kuhol is crispy. Let cool. Place in plastic bag and seal.
