3 medium size amapalaya (bitter melon)
crushed 1 clove of garlic
1 sliced onion
3 diced tomatoes
4 eggs, beaten
some salt or patis (fish sauce) and pepper to taste
Cooking Instructions:
- Slice ampalaya or bitter melon thinly (put in a bowl with water to lessen the bitter taste)
- In a pan, saute garlic, onion, and tomatoes until the tomatoes have juiced out. While doing this, add some patis (fish sauce), or salt and pepper to taste.
- Add ampalaya and 1/2 cup of water. Let it simmer for 5 minutes.
- When ampalaya is quite tender, stir in the beaten eggs and cook for another 5 minutes. Then it's ready to be served.Note:
- Do not over cooked the vegetable so it will still have a distinct crunchy taste when you eat.
