The Holy Kamote

kamote:

Simply put, it is a sweet potato. The philippines has a few varieties in different colors like red, violet, yellow and white. It's good boiled, eaten or cooked with sugar, turned into chips, etc.

WARNING: Do not eat before or during dates if you don't want to drive them away screaming. Shares similar properties with beans.

kamoteng kangkong:

It's the dark-green and purple vegetation growing out of the sweet potato. Leave it to us filipinos to eat every part of this plant. :D It looks similar to well, kangkong (swamp spinach) except that it doesn't grow in the water. It's sometimes made into salad with diced onions and vinegar or eaten stir-fried.
