【人間天堂】

什麼是天堂？也許波斯人會告訴你，天堂是花園。因為，「Paradise」這個詞是從古波斯語的字根「Pardis」傳入歐洲的，它的原意是「圍牆內的美麗園林」，所指的是「波斯花園」。

波斯花園除了花木繁茂，設計上往往突顯出波斯瑣羅亞斯德教 4 大元素——天空、水、大地、植物的象徵意象，今天被聯合國教科文組織列入世界遺產的 9 座波斯花園，最早建於公元前 6 世紀，包含了樓台、亭榭、牆垣以及水流灌溉系統等重要特徵。

波斯花園通常分為 4 個部分，用 4 條河流和 4 個意象代表世界，被稱為四花園（Chahar Bagh）波斯人造園技術使人驚豔，西班牙、印度等地園林風格都深受影響。

波斯人將他們的花園稱為「paradaida」，希臘人借用並將之翻譯作「paradisos」，當《創世記》翻譯成希臘文，猶太學者選擇了「paradisos」，將伊甸園翻譯成「parádeisos en Edem」，「paradisos」因此也帶上了「天堂」的意涵。

建造這些花園的古波斯帝國已不復存在，但其理念和設計卻對後世留下極深遠的影響。

Recipe at: http://www.themeatmen.sg/sambal-kang-kong

Sambal kangkong is a dish that doesn't need much prep and looks deceptively simple. BUT, here’s a tip we figured out. The wok has to be SMOKING hot when the kangkong goes in! Fry a small portion at a time and don’t be greedy because the moment too much kangkong hits the wok, the temperature lowers and your stir fry becomes soup!

Only add a splash of water near the end and serve once the kangkong starts to wilt. Do it right and an amazing treat awaits you! AND yes and do not burn your sambal!!! Do take note our version is really spicy, switch the chili pardis in the recipe to normal chilli if you want a less spicy version.
