Tokneneng

Tokneneng, a famous Tempura-like Filipino street food, made by deep-frying orange batter covered hard-boiled eggs. A popular variation of Tokneneng is Kwek-kwek. The main difference between the two lies in the egg that is used. Tokneneng is traditionally made with chicken or duck eggs, while Kwek-kwek is made with quail eggs or "itlog ng pugo". Due to their similarities, the two are often confused with some people calling Tokneneng "kwek kwek" and vice versa. Tokneneng is usually served with a spiced vinegar-based dip.[1]
