'Hneah' in Chinese Hokkien Dialect
Ingredients
2 eggs
a bunch of 'hneah' - chopped coarsely
1 tbsp finely chopped ginger
a pinch of salt
cooking oil for frying
|
- Mix 'hneah' [refer to photo] and ginger. Break in eggs and add salt. Lightly mix all ingredients.
- Heat a little oil [enough for frying omelette]. Pour in egg mixture. Spread out a little to speed with cooking and prevent burning. Flip over when firm to cook the other side. Can fry in a few batches if preferred to get smaller pieces or 1 big piece.
Note: 'Hneah' can be home grown in a pot from the stems as shown in the photo.
Can add a tsp of sesame oil to cooking oil when frying omelette.

Hi,
The hneah leaves looks so much like Ulam raja. My favourite ulam, best eaten raw with nasi kerabu/ulam.

Hi Keng, thanks for visiting and leaving a comment. Do you have relatives is Penang? The hneah was introduced to me by a friend. Didn't know that it is a ulam.
Is hneah n ulam raja the same thing?
Hi Anonymous, is correct. Can be home grown and is also available in most vegetables stalls at the wet market.
