Don’t blanch your bitter gourd anymore! 😱 That’s the reason it never tastes as good as in restaurants.
Today, a professional chef shares the real secret to making bitter gourd crispy, bright green, and not bitter at all!

🍚 Pair it with rice, and you’ll easily finish three bowls — it’s that delicious!

🔥 Step-by-step guide:
1️⃣ Slice the bitter gourd in half, scrape off the white inner part (the main source of bitterness).
2️⃣ Cut into thin slices, sprinkle a bit of salt, and massage for 30 seconds to draw out excess moisture.
3️⃣ Rinse twice and pat dry — this removes the bitter taste.
4️⃣ Dry-fry the bitter gourd for 1 minute to remove extra water.
5️⃣ In a clean pan, heat a spoon of lard (or cooking oil for a lighter option).
6️⃣ Add garlic, red and green peppers, and a spoonful of fermented soybeans for aroma.
7️⃣ Season with oyster sauce, light soy sauce, and chicken essence.
8️⃣ Stir-fry quickly — and done! Crispy, fragrant, and full of flavor.

🌟 This method keeps your bitter gourd crunchy, flavorful, and vibrant green — not soggy or bitter.
It’s a restaurant-level stir-fry anyone can make at home in just 10 minutes!

👩‍🍳 Perfect for:
