Kamote cue is a beloved Filipino snack that holds a special place in the hearts of many. Made from slices of sweet potato (kamote), this treat is deep-fried and coated with a layer of caramelized brown sugar, creating a delightful combination of crispy, sweet, and slightly chewy textures. It’s a popular afternoon snack, often enjoyed as part of meryenda (Filipino snack time), and is a close cousin to the equally famous banana cue. Both snacks are commonly sold by street vendors on busy streets, making them a nostalgic and accessible treat for Filipinos everywhere.
