TOKNENENG
Tokneneng are boiled chicken eggs that are dipped in a reddish batter and deep-fried until the batter becomes crispy. Generally, this is considered as a Filipino Street food and sold on the streets along with kwek-kwek, squidballs, fish balls, and kikiam.

Gordon Ramsey's Perfect Gourmet Scrambbled Egg
FAQ:
What is Crème fraîche?
Crème fraîche (French for "fresh cream") is the European counterpart to the U.S. sour cream product. It is a heavy cream slightly soured with bacterial culture, but not as sour or as thick as sour cream.
Crème fraîche can be made at home by adding a small amount of cultured buttermilk or sour cream to normal heavy cream, and allowing to stand for several hours at room temperature until the bacterial cultures act on the cream.
