A little rice with 1. curry chicken (a small piece of chicken breast meat) 2. water convolvulus (kang kong), 3. water cress 4. bean curd sticks with petola - MYR7 - I prefer to eat water cress boiled in soup because it is softer cooked that way. When stir fried like this, the water cress is quite tough until it is difficult to masticate. The petola on the other hand is soft, tender and tasty.
Same here, I also like sai yeong choy tong with lots of red dates and oysters.. I've never seen sai yeong choy fried this way.. Must be tough like you said..
ReplyDeleteSo far I have never eaten tender stir fried sai yeong choy before.
DeleteI shall not comment on the price of your zhap farn after yesterday's post :-/
ReplyDeleteBetter not since yours so murah. :)
DeleteI love petola. Nice in soup too. These days, they sell at the market, skin removed. Not that difficult to do that actually - people are getting to be so lazy. :D
ReplyDeleteI read that the nutrient will go off slowly if the skin is removed so better to peel the skin nearest to the cooking time.
DeleteI love petola! So far I have not seen watercress stir fried. I love it boiled with pork ribs and red dates.
ReplyDeleteSometimes chap fan eateries offer stir fried the water cress as one of the dishes to pick from.
DeleteAt first, I was wondering WTH is petola? Then I googled...oh, it's "seng gua". I also found so many other names for it....luffa, angled loofah, Chinese okra, ridged gourd, snake gourd, etc. Ok, to make a long story short, I like braised petola with egg shreds.
ReplyDeleteMany names. In taiwan luffa siew long bao is available.
DeleteI like petola too!
ReplyDeleteMe too! :)
DeleteSing kwa... I like them soft too.. and with glassnoodles or beancurd also nice!
ReplyDeleteI think they are easy to get soft.
DeleteYou always eat more greens than meat. So healthy!
ReplyDeleteGreens for the fiber! :)
DeleteI like petola too!
ReplyDeleteI always complain about my chap fun price, I said I'm a regular and always get them to sell it cheaper and they always do. Haha!
I feel bad now when I look at your plate and your price since I get a lot more stuff and meat. But I heard veggies are more expensive now though.
This place has air cond so maybe that is why the price is higher.
