Wash, drain and pat dry the ikan bilis.
Spread a layer of ikan bilis on a microwavable plate with a kitchen paper towel.
Do not place too many ikan bilis at one time or some parts will not be fully cooked.
Apply a thin layer of cooking oil on the ikan bilis with a cooking spray.
Put in a microwave oven and set it to high for 4 mins.
Be careful when removing the plate from the oven as it is hot.
