Houttuynia Photos

Last week I posted about the great Houttuynia and using it in a meatball recipe.  I thought our camera was out of batteries, but it turns out it still had enough juice to transfer these photos to my computer.  Here they are!

First, the plant itself.  This is growing as a groundcover in our front garden under the banana trees:

Next, the chopped Houttuynia leaves (the green leaves) mixed with chopped basil (the purple leaves):

And, the sizzling meatballs.  Maybe not the most photogenic dish, but they sure were tasty:
