A Salad with Tuna and Bitter Melon
It's not so bitter, so even kids will eat this. The salad has a lot of vitamins, so it's good for your skin when you get a sunburn in the summer.
Make sure you squeeze out the water from the bitter melon and the onion. Wrap the unused bitter melon with the seeds removed and store in the fridge. It'll keep for 2-3 days. It's also nice with miso and sesame (prepare the same way.) For 4 servings. Recipe by Nanamama

One Cookpad user called Setsubunhijiki had uploaded a recipe for "Bitter Melon and Crispy Pork With Spicy Mayonnaise" which was really delicious so I rearranged it a bit and added my own touches. I used sweet chili sauce plus mayonnaise to make it simple. The ponzu sauce really brings the flavors together.Just use a pinch of salt to massage the bitter melon, or else the dish will be too salty.Don't boil the bitter melon for too long.Put the onions in a bowl of water to get rid of the harsh flavor. For 2 to 3 servings. Recipe by Wanko mama -
