My favorite bitter gourd for lunch today. I don't used to like bitter gourd because of their bitter taste but I'm not sure since when, my taste buds changed, maybe I have aged.....haa. Bitter gourd has become one of my favorite food. I like bitter gourd with eggs or bitter gourd soup, which is so cooling, perfect for our hot hot weather now.
