Fried Water Spinach

Wag magpanic. Hindi ka mahihirapan or mapapamahal sa pagbili ng “water spinach”. Keep calm and realize that it is only kangkong, guys. But wait. Kangkong as pulutan? Yep. And it works too. All you need is a bunch of the leafy vegetable, beer batter, and very hot oil. Cheap, tasty, and it remains crispy even the day after. It is definitely a dish to try making.
