Kwek-kwek is a vibrant and beloved Filipino street food made from quail eggs coated in an orange-colored batter and deep-fried to a crispy finish. These bite-sized treats are often served with a choice of dipping sauces, such as spiced vinegar or sweet and tangy sweet-and-sour sauce. Kwek-kwek’s bright orange hue, which comes from food coloring added to the batter, makes it instantly recognizable. The crunchy coating and soft, savory egg interior create an enjoyable contrast, making kwek-kwek a fun and filling snack for those on the go.
