Khanom khai nok kratha ({{Langx|th|ขนมไข่นกกระทา}}, {{IPA|th|kʰā.nǒm kʰàj nók krā.tʰāː|pron}}) is a Thai snack.
The sweet is a fried sweet potato dough ball. Khanom is placed at the beginning of the name of a sweet to indicate the food item is a dessert or snack; khai nok kratha means quail's egg, as the size of the dough ball is roughly the same size as that of a quail's egg.{{cite web|url=http://shesimmers.com/2009/05/khanom-khai-nok-krata-ขนมไข่นกกระทา-thai-fried-sweet-potato-balls.html|title=Khanom Khai Nok Krata ขนมไข่นกกระทา – Thai Fried Sweet Potato Balls|author=Leela|publisher=She Simmers Thai Cooking|date=May 21, 2009|access-date=December 3, 2015}}
