Stir Fry Dragon Mustard With Shrimp Paste ( Belacan)


























The first time I had this was when I was in Cameron Highlands for the church camp two years ago.  I didn't know what this green is called until I saw them at Jusco Ipoh . They called it the dragon mustard...mmmm nice name but I read somewhere that they are also called wild mustard.   I am  still not sure what this is called actualy. ( if you guys know the actual name of this mustard, please leave a note on the  comment box here, tq




























I bought two bunches back and stir fry with chilli , garlic and shrimp paste aka known locally as belacan ( made from krill ) .  It was my first time cooking it at home.  It was really appetizing with the chilli and shrimp paste.  It has a slight crunch if you don't overcook it.  Nice, I like it cooked this style.  Some perfers just stir fry with garlic but I know my Wild Boar won't like it just with garlic , so to make him eat his share , I cooked his style with chilli garlic and shrimp paste and sure enough, he ate his share and say it was good !   So with this good review, I can cook this more often at home :)  Wild Boar is not adventurous like me :p   I am willing to try out new veggies !   This is really delicious !




























Have a nice day ! Eat more greens...keeps the doctor away !

  4. I've seen this but never knew how to use them, whether to eat the tendrils and throw away the other parts or eat the stalks and throw away the tendrils. LOL!!
