Fried potato leaves aka Char Huan Tzu Heok- one of my favourite dishes.
This is considered as one of those vegetables which is the safest to eat.
If lucky enough, I can get those ready-cut ones, which remain only the leafy parts.
But most of the time, I get those palmately lobed leaves (which got 5 distinct lobes) type. *aiyo, che kang loh* :)
If not, lazy bone like me, choose this kind of heart-shaped species one, so that I need not peel away the fibrous shoots (which must be done for the palmately lobed type above), save me a lot of time and get rid of dirty nails.
The photos below showing those heart-shaped type. I use scissors to cut, leaving behind only the young leaves and a bit of shoot.
