This editor should have used "discussion" before moving the page. The spelling used is not common on a Google search. Badagnani 06:31, 19 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I am more confused about the name Matuen? Isn't it the small crunchy snack that looks like a Jin deui but not the same thing? It has no fillings and is much smaller? Benjwong 00:14, 21 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
That is possible! It's a hollow ball with sesame seeds and no filling? Seems to me an entirely different food that merits its own (separate) article. Badagnani 00:17, 21 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
By "small crunchy snack", do you mean the little deep-fried sesame covered solid lumps that are usually sold around Chinese New Year/Mid-Autumn Festival?
The hollow balls taste about the same as the filled ones (only sans filling), so I don't think those are a separate food.. probably just a "flavour" or variety. Oltri 19:11, 18 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The picture and description is of a restaurants type Jin deui, what I would call Jin deui tsai with a dimunative 仔 added to the end. The traditional Jin deuis we use to get in the New Territories were made in much the same way, but with no outer sesame coating and with a savoury inner coating of beaten egg and spring onions, they were also a lot bigger, bigger than an adult fist (it got a bit competetive as to who could make the biggest one without it exploding) and couldn't be eaten whilst spherical, you had to wait for them to deflate rip a hole in the side to turn them inside out before rolling them up with the egg coating (which had become a sort of steamed omelette) on the outside.KTo288 (talk) 08:39, 5 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The page is called Jin deui, but the term Jin dui is used throughout the article and with no explanation. Should the spelling not be either consistent or the difference explained somewhere? Lithium (talk) 21:25, 14 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The food is different. Eḷḷuruṇṭai(எள்ளுருண்டை) are not rice balls covered with sesame seeds, but balls made of sesame powder and rice powder mixed together. They are not fried other. --Ityoppyawit (talk) 03:02, 8 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
