Dinner with jungle vegetables


Here are the dishes I made for dinner for myself. Just simple jungle vegetables such as baby zucchini, baby summer squash and baby brocolini, jungle pumpkin shoots and leaves and flowers.
The soup is with pumpkin flowers and stems. The tempura includes deep-fried brocolini, zucchini and summer squash, pumpkin flowers and tips. Then the main dish is stir-fried pumpkin leaves in XO sauce. The chips on the side is again from jungle, called melinjo, a fruit from the Gnetum vine.
