Fried Tofu with Malunggay Leaves

Just last tuesday, I felt like being adventurous and so I tried to experiment a new dish... Tada! "Fried tofu with malunggay leaves"

Ingredients:

1 bundle of malunggay (Moringa oleifera) leaves (~3 cups)

2 small cubes of tofu, cut into fours (tokwa)

a thumb-sized ginger, diced

2 cloves of garlic, chopped

1 small onion, chopped

2-3 cups water

salt and pepper to taste

Procedure:
1. Fry the tofu then set aside.
2. Saute the garlic and onion on a saucepan.
3. Add the malunggay, water, ginger and fried tofu.
4. Season to taste then bring to a boil until leaves are cooked.

The verdict:
Haha, well, the dish I made was a bit blunt. But I guess you can add mushrooms to give it more flavor. During this times I missed the flavor meat or meat broth gives, but hey! I already made a commitment to be an ovo-lacto vegetarian and I'll definitely take "blunt meals" as a challenge to improve my cooking skills. lol. xD
