7. Use paper towel to remove excess oil.

Suggested dip:

Note from Delish:

The first time I tasted kwek kwek, I just can’t get enough of it. So I decided to try to make it at home. Some are using artificial food color, but I’d rather use anato powder for a healthier option. You can make any dip sauce of your choice as well.
