Ingredients:
500g water convolvulus (kankong)
3-4 tbsp cooking oil
50g dried prawns, soaked & chopped
Spice Paste:
5 fresh red chillies
5 dried chillies
12 shallots
1 clove garlic
4 buah keras (candlenuts)
1 tsp belachan, toasted
1 tsp ikan bilis stock granules
salt to taste
Method:
1. Wash kangkong and snap the stalks at 2-4 leaves intervals, discarding the thicker parts of the stalks.
2. Heat oil in a wok and fry the chopped dried prawns until fragrant. Remove and set aside.
3. In the same oil, saute the spice paste until fragrant. Add in the kangkong and stir-fry till kangkong is cooked. Season with salt and the ikan bilis stock granules.
4. Dish up and sprinkle with fried dried prawns.
* For the chilli paste, I used ready made one from NTUC. But I added shallots and garlic to make it fragrant. And of course the ikan bilis stock for the taste. Next time I'll add balachan too. Think it'll be even more fragrant. I forgot to buy it yesterday!
