This vege is best eaten with ikan bilis soup or stir fried in egg sauce. I like it with soup, makes a nourishing and satisfying dish
Gao Gei Choy or Boxthorn leaves. I've heard it's very for the eyes (improves vision, maintain vision, etc) but I don't really know why or how but I reckon it comes from the same family as boxthorn/wolfberries, chinese gei chee, the red seeds that resembles mini raisins. Even wolfberries are known as a supplement for eyesight, so I should think boxthorn leaves and boxthorn fruit, by namesake, is somewhat related .
Careful when stripping off the leaves, thorns lurking from the sides.
Strip them off the leaves.
Stems discarded.
Boil a pot of ikan bilis soup, throw in the vege, fishballs and turn off fire, add egg.
Voila ! A bowl of steaming hot soup, excellent dinner dish, especially on a rainy day !
