Sweet and Sour Eggs Recipe

Sweet and Sour Eggs

These delicious Thailand style sweet and sour eggs will make a very unique appetizer or hors d'oeuvre for your next party. A nice alternative to everyday deviled eggs, the eggs are soft-boiled first, then fried until crispy and browned on the outside. We top them with a simple but rich sweet and sour sauce made with tamarind pulp, some fried red shallots, and a few hot chilies. They are commonly known as Kai Look Kuey (Son In-law's Eggs)
