Purslane

The succulent plant known as purslane has thick, fleshy leaves and small, golden blooms that are both delicious and may be consumed either cooked or uncooked. In the past, purslane was viewed as little more than a garden weed. But because of its high nutritious content, demand for this little plant has suddenly risen.

Although it is chock-full of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, omega-3 fats are its main nutritional claim to fame. Actually, more omega-3s are present in purslane than in practically any other vegetable of its sort. Purslane blossoms and leaves may be used raw in a variety of salads and sandwiches. As a side dish or addition to your preferred soups, they may also be sautéed or boiled with other vegetables. You may even think of frying and battering this plant.
