Okoy or ukoy, are Filipino crispy deep-fried fritters made with glutinous rice batter, unshelled small shrimp, and various vegetables, including calabaza, sweet potato, cassava, mung bean sprouts, scallions and julienned carrots, onions, and green papaya.
Ukoy is the Filipino version of shrimp fritters. Small shrimps with head and shell on are mixed in a batter and fried until crispy. This can be an appetizer, a main dish, or a mid afternoon snack.
