    Some time ago, I shared with you my first harvest of water spinach. A few days later I harvested all the water spinach to share with more neighbors. I feel satisfied like I feel satisfied when I share the results of my cooking with other people.

    I left some water spinach for me and my husband. So, in this blog, I will share how to cook water spinach with other ingredients such as corn vermicelli and tempeh.

    Corn vermicelli is my husband's favorite. It is perfect to combine with the remaining stock from the water spinach. You can use other types of noodles or pasta too.

    I only used two handfuls of water spinach for this recipe, which was mixed with 100 grams of noodles, also 100 grams of tempeh which was roasted using an air fryer. This can be served for 2-3 servings.

    For the seasoning, I use hot chili sauce. If you are not a spicy lover, then you can skip this spicy chili sauce recipe.




    The Ingredients

    • 2 full handfuls of water spinach
    • 100 grams of corn vermicelli

    • 3-5 small cloves of garlic, finely chopped
    • 2 tablespoons of sweet soy sauce
    • 2 tablespoons of spicy chili sauce
    • a thumb-sized ginger, flattened
    • 1/2 teaspoon of salt

    for roasted tempeh

    • 100 grams of tempeh
    • 2 tablespoons of coconut oil or olive oil
    • 1/2 teaspoon of salt
    • 1/2 teaspoon of coriander powder



    Cooking Instructions

    STEP 1

    First, I prepare the tempeh because it will be roasted and will take longer to process. Mix 2 tablespoons of coconut oil or olive oil, with 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of coriander powder.

    Add tempeh to the oil mixture then arrange into the air-fryer basket.

    Roast tempeh for 15 minutes per side.



    STEP 3

    Boil water, about 1 liter. Then, boil the corn vermicelli for around 4-5 minutes. Check the back of the packaging of each vermicelli product to determine how long you need to boil the vermicelli. So it's not overcooked. Then, drain and set aside.



    STEP 4

    Cut water spinach into pieces. I only use bare hand without a knife. By using our hands, we can find out which parts are hard and cannot be included in cooking. Then, wash it clean.



    STEP 5

    Heat some vegetable oil. Then, add chopped garlic and flattened ginger. Stir-fry for a while until it smells fragrant.



    STEP 6

    STEP 7

    After the water spinach is cooked, then add boiled corn vermicelli, also add sweet soy sauce, spicy chili sauce, and salt.

    We had a delicious dinner even from simple ingredients. After gardening, we enjoyed a dish with a few ingredients from my own garden. It adds to my gratitude that in this world there is much we can do to stay alive and happy. So, just keep it up and smile :)
