Kamote Cue Recipe (Deep Fried Caramelized Sweet Potato)

Kamote Que is deep fried sweet potatoes with a coating of caramelized brown sugar. This is a common meryenda (mid-afternoon snack) in the Philippines and can mostly be seen peddled around the busy streets.

I would say that Kamote Que is one of the top selling meryenda because of its affordability and filling effect (it can make you feel full for several hours). This can also recharge your energy temporarily (carb and sugar combined makes you hyper active).

Try this sweet meryenda : Kamote Que.

Kamote Cue

I would say that Kamote Cue is one of the top selling meryenda because it is affordable and filling (it can make you feel full for several hours)– not to mention that it tastes good especially with a cold bottle of soda or water by the side. This can also recharge your energy temporarily (carbs and sugar combined makes you hyperactive ๐Ÿ™‚ ).
