more about the kwek-kwek recipe

i just remembered that as i was walking to work last Saturday, i chanced upon a street vendor who was preparing his "orange bits of goodness" for frying, and one thing i noticed he was doing was that not only was he using a rather thick batter, he was also using a spoon to coat the eggs, before sliding the whole bit off the spoon and into the frying pan. i suppose he must have the spoon oiled too, unless the batter mix is oily to begin with.

i'll experiment with those observations next time...

[edit: is it kwek-kwek, kwek kwek, or tukneneng? i don't seem to know the exact differences/nuances...]
