It is generally recommended to cook them directly from frozen or with very minimal thawing (5–15 minutes) to ensure the pastry stays intact and crispy.

• Thaw (Optional): Some manufacturers suggest letting them sit for 15 minutes after removing them from the freezer. Others recommend frying directly from frozen to prevent the pastry from breaking.
• Heat Oil: Heat oil to 160°C – 180°C over medium heat.
• Fry: Submerge the popia and fry for 3–5 minutes (up to 8–10 minutes depending on brand) until golden brown.
• Tip: Do not flip too frequently; let one side get firm and golden before turning. 

• Preheat: Set to 180°C (350°F).
• Prep: Lightly spray or brush the popia with oil for better browning and to prevent a "rubbery" texture.
• Cook: Place in a single layer and cook for 12–15 minutes.
• Flip: Turn them halfway through to ensure even crispiness on all sides.

• Preheat: Set oven to 220°C (fan bake) or 240°C (toaster oven).
• Arrange: Place on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
• Cook: Bake for 15–20 minutes, turning halfway through. 

• Internal Temperature: Ensure the otak-otak filling is piping hot. If the filling isn't fully cooked, it may taste bland; when properly cooked, it develops its signature rich, spicy flavor.
• Don't Over-Thaw: If left to defrost for too long, the pastry can become soggy or "skinny" and may burst during frying.
• Serve Hot: Otak-otak popia is best enjoyed immediately while the pastry is at its maximum crunch.
