There are fish called garfish in the Mediterranean and the Baltic and the Atlantic. They aren't the same as the garfish found in shallow waters around Australia - but they share some characteristics. Maybe cousins. They are occasionally used for sashimi. Here they've been dunked in panko crumbs and pan fried in ghee. I hadn't heard of Sri Lankan spinach until I saw it on a stall at the weekly farmers market. If you look it up on the Net, as I did, you'll see it's also called water spinach. But then if you look up water spinach, as I did, you'll see what the Chinese call ong choy - and this has arrow-head shaped leaves while ong choy has long slender leaves - all of which makes vegetable identification as puzzling as working out fish species around the world.
