Our friend Barbs (vegetarian and with enviable skill with the kitchen knife) is staying with Janice also. Left to our own devices, we usually eat out but since I'm on a cooking roll... I decided to try cooking lunch for us both. ^_^ Barbs suggested going through kitchenomics recipes since these were what she used at home. We found a bunch of vegetarian dishes, mostly tofu based (sawa na), and we settled on trying PIÑA KANGKONG since we both like pineapple and kangkong.
So we went to the same supermarket I visited yesterday and tried matching the ingredients to our list. This time, our problem was the Kangkong... I have no idea what it looked liked uncooked. Barbs knows but none of the leafy veges there seem to match. Anyway, she asked another lady shopper and the later was kind enough to point out the Kangkong. hehehe According to Barbs it looks different... it was longer and with thinner leaves. I dunno if we really got the right vegetable since the helpful lady did not seem to speak english and just pointed to a leafy stack and said "Singapore Kangkong"
Anyway, next time I go back there... I'm sure I will recognized that leafy vege again and I will surely hunt for it again since the recipe turned out quite easy to prepare and tasty. ^_^
