2. Remove leaves from stem, set aside.
3. Combine cornstarch, tapioca flour, water and the seasonings. Mix until smooth/pancake batter consistency. Taste and adjust, re-season if needed.
4. Heat oil to at least 250 degrees F on medium high.
5. Dip kangkong leaves one at a time in batter and fry until crispy.
