Hong Kong Egg Waffle, also known as "Gai Daan Jai," is a beloved street food originating from Hong Kong. This treat is made using a batter that typically consists of eggs, sugar, flour, evaporated milk, and baking powder, cooked in a special honeycomb-shaped waffle iron. The result is a fluffy, golden waffle with crisp edges and soft, airy "bubbles." While traditionally eaten plain, egg waffles can be topped with fruits, whipped cream, or ice cream to enhance their flavor. While high in carbohydrates and sugars, the eggs in the batter provide a small amount of protein. However, it is not typically considered a health food due to its calorie count and sugar content. Moderation is key, as egg waffles are best enjoyed as an occasional indulgence during festivals or street food outings, celebrating their unique texture and nostalgic charm.
