The trick is to find a shop where you can buy leaves with a bit of stem. It doesn't take much stem to produce roots if set in water in a vase, and when planted in ordinary potting-soil it makes pretty, dark-green leaves on hanging vines. Will readily flower as well, the flowers resembling tiny, white cobs. Is related to black pepper.

I understand the use of the leaves as a wrapper originated on the Burmese/Thai border. Tai are also known as Shan.

The bai chaploo leaves can be found at open local markets. Where are you located? In Chiang Mai they are at Warrarut Market, in BKK many neighbourhood markets carry them. I made them yesterday for a family get together and used large spinach leaves which have a thicker tooth than lettuce leaves. I love chaploo but very few markets here carry them. There are versions of Miang Kum made with beef, noodles, jellyfish, pork, chicken, pomello, etc. Love these eat out of hand snacks. Lucky you living in Thailand!!!! I have traveled to Thailand 30 some times, each trip is usually for a month plus a few weeks to Vietnam, urma, Cambodia, Malaysia, Laos, or Singapore. N. Laos is my second fav spot. It is like N. Thailand was in the mid 1980's when we first traveled there with our 3 children. Yes Tai people eat these in more than 20 variations. The bai chaploo leaves can be found at open local markets.

One grocery had them but only as part of a kit for tourists, not in the produce section. Do Thai people really eat this dish? I can’t even find betel leaves in thailand!
