Sweet Potato Leaves and Cornmeal Steamed Buns

Overview

I went to my husband's workplace that day and saw a lot of sweet potatoes in their vacant space. I was so excited and felt like I had picked up a big deal. Hehe, because the sweet potato leaves sold in the vegetable market cost two or three yuan for a small handful, because they have the effect of moisturizing the intestines, so I buy some home from time to time and fry or mix them. However, something went wrong with this excitement. Instead of picking the tenderest leaves, I picked a lot of them at random. So I went home and sorted them. I kept the tender ones, and mixed the old ones with cornmeal to make a slightly salty steamed bun.
