FIL: Isang uri ng makatas na halaman na gumagapang, may maliliit at makakapal na dahon, at karaniwang itinuturing na damo ngunit nakakain at masustansya.
EN: purslane
This is the 'survivor' plant you see growing in the cracks of the sidewalk. You probably thought it was just a weed, but your lola knows it's a secret superfood. It's kinda sour, kinda salty, and perfect for ensalada or sinigang when you're on a budget. The ultimate 'don't judge a book by its cover' vegetable.
Also known as 'ngalog' or 'olasiman' in other Philippine languages. It is known for its high Omega-3 fatty acid content.
