Hey guys, it is about time to share an ultra-easy and quick stir-fry plantbased recipe from Thailand with the traditional Chinese water spinach - in my veganized version of the dish – the quick easy stir-fry Thai „Morning Glory“. Its main ingredient is Pak Boong – water spinach, which you can find at your local Asian grocery story.
