Take out chilled somen noodles, rinse quickly with water and drain water well with a sieve (clumped noodles are difficult to stir fry).

When pork is almost cooked, add the sliced bitter melon and stir fry.

Crumble tofu by hand, mix lightly, and season with soy sauce and sugar. Continue stir frying.

Delicious! Goya Chanpuru (Bitter Melon Stir-Fry) Delicious! Goya Chanpuru (Bitter Melon Stir-Fry)
My parents harvested a lot of bitter melon, so I thought of recipes to use it. I compared the taste with store bought sauce, and now I don't need store bought sauce any more.To get rid of the bitterness, remove the white inner parts as much as possible. Slice the bitter gourd thinly, and rub with 1 tablespoon of salt (for a 20-30 cm long vegetable), and then soak it in water for about 10 minutes. Not all of the bitterness will be eliminated, but it will reduce to about the level where you just sense it as an aftertaste. In addition, freshly harvested bitter melon is less bitter. For 4 servings. Recipe by Himawarichan cookpad.japan -
