Serbajadi Chinese Kale - Brassica oleracea alboglabra

Sometimes referred to as Chinese broccoli, Chinese Kale is particularly popular with Chinese cooks throughout Southeast Asia, and also with the Thais. This is an expensive but popular leafy vegetable and is one of the most highly nutritious vegetable with flat glossy leaves with thick stems and small flower heads, similar to those of broccoli. Chinese Kale has anti-cancer properties and it is rich in many minerals, including copper, iron, calcium and magnesium, a good source of fiber. It is also an excellent source of vitamin C, B1, B2, and E as well as vitamin K, good for bone density and clotting. It contains 45% protein. The leaves are large and slightly crinkled and they are generally pulled off the central stem, and the stems (except for the tough end) peeled and sliced for stir fry. This vegetable can be used in various cooking recipes and preparations include stir-fried, steamed and served with oyster sauce or in fried noodle with gravy.
