Chive flowers with Bean Curd and Prawns (韭菜花，豆干，虾)
This is called suan-ah-hway.
This is probably my mom’s favourate vegetable dish. Almost always cooked this way, so I thought I’d document it for reference. Everybody seems to love this dish as well. It is always a welcomed vegetable dish. Of course, with the addition of prawns, it is no longer vegan or vegetarian, but still healthy nonetheless.
