Sylke’s home cookingBitter melon take #2. We had an Okinawan Chanpuru, a bitter melon stir-fry with tofu, sliced pork belly and egg (loads of protein 😅). Soy sauce and dashi are used for seasoning in this recipe. <br>
<br>
I have to admit that while bitter melon is not my enemy, it’s also not my new best friend. As it’s hard to get for me anyway that’s perfectly fine. But if someone would cook it for me I’d eat it. Maybe another way of preparing this would change things somewhat.<br>
<br>
Knowing all of that, I had opted for bacon instead of more neutral tasting pork belly and was happy that I had just one bitter melon left (instead of the 1.5 needed per the recipe). We had this dish with rice and (unlike last time) didn’t need any additional seasoning to make it better.<br>
