    Your channel feels like home! It's so close to what we always make here in Malaysia. We call them kailan & kangkung. Your recipe always looks simpler and more delish! Will definitely try them, I've never felt this butterflies just by watching cooking videos like this, that's how I love your page, thanks Marion for sharing your hearts in Asian cooking. 💕

    It's refreshing seeing dishes you eat almost every day being given the spotlight, makes you feel like you've taken these things for granted. I'd never imagine kangkung tumis and kailan bawang (the dishes as they're called here) could be explained and celebrated wonderfully like what you did.

    Vietnamese people call them rau muong. As a child, I was petrified of eating greens with the exception of the stir-fried morning glory as they are so so good! I think we make it with fish sauce and maybe some shrimp paste and garlic. Yummikins!

    Stir-fried water spinach is my most favorite veggie dish. Don't be fooled by its simple appearance. The crunchy texture and the salty umami taste with a bit of kick from chili and garlic will leave you wanting more. My mom likes to add a bit of shrimp paste to her stir-fry and it's amazing.
