Sayur Manis

Sabah is its place of origin but most Sabahans love the leafy sayur manis. I'd say it's the signature veggie of Sabah.

There are many ways to cook this deliciously unique veggie, i.e. with belacan (fermented shrimp paste), fry it with garlic or make it into soup. My favourite way of cooking it is to simply fry it with garlic & egg! Nothing fancy - simple food with simple cooking resulting in excellent taste.

Heat up some oil, then add garlic & sayur manis. Stir fry for a bit before adding an egg & cook till veggie is soft. Lastly add salt & pepper to taste.

End.
