Deep Fried Quails Eggs in Beer Batter

This dish is probably the most underrated Filipino street food in the Philippines. The original recipe doesn’t have any beer with it, my version is taken from England’s fish & chips batter super charged it with beer or sparkling water. It creates bubbles and makes the batter airy and crisp! I love this dish it’s delicious, it’s easy to make ad it’s great as a starter or appetizer.

I served this recently at my monthly Filipino Supperclub in Kingscross. Served with sweet and spicy banana sauce, just how you see it on the Philippine streets! My diners enjoyed this dish and it was an eye opener for some as they never saw eggs cooked in this way.
