Kwek Kwek Recipe
Kwek kwek is a popular filipino street food here in the philippines. It is sold along the street together with fish balls, tokneneng, kikiam, fried tofu, calamares. It is made by deep frying boiled quail egg(itlog ng pugo) in an orange coloured flour batter. It's another popular variation is tokneneng.

They even use balut(is a developing egg embryo)usually a duck or a chicken for tokneneng since its a cheaper alternative.
Annato powder is mostly use as a coloring agent in making kwek-kwek and tokneneng. It's responsible for its deep orange colored batter. Annatto powder also gives the batter a hint of flavor. But if you don't have annatto powder, you can use orange food color instead.
Kwek kwek is commonly sold along the streets. And nowadays you can see it being sold around the neighborhood. Kwek kwek is usually served with a spiced vinegar-based dip. Kwek kwek is so popular maybe because it served as a quick street snack and its also affordable beside being delicious.
If you decided to make kwek kwek or toknenengg in your own home. Don't worry, it's easy to cook and the ingredients are just around your kitchen.
Kwek-kwek is best enjoyed when it is still somewhat hot, the batter is more crispier when eaten. It can start to become soggy once it cools. So better eat while still crispy.

Ingredients
2 tbsp finely chopped cucumbers
1 small red onions, finely chopped
1 cup white vinegar
Sugar (according to your preffered sweetness)
Ground black pepper
Procedure
1. In a bowl mix together the cucumbers, red onions, white vinegar, sugar and ground black pepper. Stir until well combined.

http://youtu.be/NEkVjMNXEugAbout the Site π
This site provides links to random videos hosted at YouTube, with the emphasis on random. π₯
Origins of the Idea π±
The original idea for this site stemmed from the need to benchmark the popularity of a video against the general population of YouTube videos. π§
Challenges Faced π€
Obtaining a large sample of videos was crucial for accurate ranking, but YouTube lacks a direct method to gather random video IDs.
Even searching for random strings on YouTube doesn't yield truly random results, complicating the process further. π
Creating Truly Random Links π οΈ
The YouTube API offers additional functions enabling the discovery of more random videos. Through inventive techniques and a touch of space-time manipulation, we've achieved a process yielding nearly 100% random links to YouTube videos.
About YouTube πΊ
YouTube, an American video-sharing website based in San Bruno, California, offers a diverse range of user-generated and corporate media content. π
Content and Users π΅
Users can upload, view, rate, share, and comment on videos, with content spanning video clips, music videos, live streams, and more.
While most content is uploaded by individuals, media corporations like CBS and the BBC also contribute. Unregistered users can watch videos, while registered users enjoy additional privileges such as uploading unlimited videos and adding comments.
Monetization and Impact π€
YouTube and creators earn revenue through Google AdSense, with most videos free to view. Premium channels and subscription services like YouTube Music and YouTube Premium offer ad-free streaming.
As of February 2017, over 400 hours of content were uploaded to YouTube every minute, with the site ranking as the second-most popular globally. By May 2019, this figure exceeded 500 hours per minute. π
