Sorry, don't expect to see same steps our great grand parents used.
My mum as an experienced caterer and an Akwaibomite has been using the old method you all know, but decided to try something different and the result was awesome.
Life would be boring and uninteresting if we keep doing things exactly the same way our fore fathers did. Get the recipe and create something nice.

Come to think of it, waterleaf takes lesser time to tenderize than pumpkin leave, have you ever asked yourself why it has to be placed on heat 1st before the pumpkin leaf and both have to be brought down at the same time, thereby making the waterleaf cook for a longer time than the hard pumpkin leaves.
This is the chemistry of cooking. Get the recipe and do it your way if you don't like my method.
