Ingredients:​

• 300g morning glory (water spinach), washed and cut into 2-inch pieces
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 2-3 Thai bird's eye chilies, chopped (adjust to taste)
• 2 tablespoons soybean paste (tao jiew)
• 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
• 1 tablespoon fish sauce
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1-2 tablespoons water (if needed)

Instructions:​

1. Prepare the Ingredients:
   • Wash the morning glory thoroughly and cut it into 2-inch pieces, separating the stems from the leaves.
2. Make the Sauce:
   • In a small bowl, mix the soybean paste, oyster sauce, fish sauce, and sugar. Set aside.
3. Stir-Fry Garlic and Chili:
   • Heat vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add minced garlic and chopped chilies, stir-frying until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
4. Add Morning Glory:
   • Quickly add the morning glory stems to the wok, stir-frying for about 1 minute. Then add the leaves and continue to stir-fry for another 1-2 minutes, or until wilted.
5. Add Sauce:
   • Pour the prepared sauce over the morning glory and stir well to coat the vegetables evenly. If the mixture seems too dry, add a tablespoon or two of water.
6. Cook and Serve:
   • Stir-fry everything together for another 1-2 minutes until the morning glory is tender but still slightly crisp.
   • Remove from heat and transfer to a serving plate.

Serving Suggestion:​

• Enjoy Pad Phak Boong Fai Daeng as a flavorful side dish or a light main course with steamed jasmine rice. The spicy garlic and chili sauce perfectly complements the fresh, crunchy texture of the morning glory.
