I went to the Sungai Ara market this morning. Wanted to get some fish and prawns... and there's a wider selection at that market (compared to the one in Relau).
I stumbled upon a new stall selling some Japanese pancakes (if you've seen it before, it's the two flat disks about three inches wide, with some ham or whatever filling in the middle), and quail egg skewers.
I didn't even really know what those quail egg skewers were like. All I saw were five blobs on a satay stick. Five blobs that looked like fried batter. But there was a pan with small holes there, like a takoyaki pan but with smaller holes, and a box of quail eggs on the side, so it was easy to guess what was in the balls. One skewer cost RM3 (two for RM5.50, but I decided to stick with one, just to try it).
Only after buying it, did I see what the other side looked like.
Basically it is fried quail egg with a slice of sausage inside. So now you can imagine the other side... it's just like the underside of fried eggs, but in a ball-shape instead of being flat. That's why I thought they were blobs of fried batter instead of just egg.
The taste? Again, you can guess. Fried eggs with sausage inside, you can try making it yourself too! Oh, and the yolk is hard, fully cooked. No gooey runny yolk here, unfortunately.
Edit (6 June 2016):
A friend said that this looks like scallops with cheese. Come to think of it... it does! On some of the pieces, the sausage looks like the charred top of cheese.
