Bitter Gourd and Pork (ニガウリのチャンプルー)
This is a dish eaten often in Okinawa, southern most island in Japan. Saute each ingredients such as biter gourd, pork, scrambled egg, garlic, onion, tofu separately, and mix them in the very end and season it with fish sauce, soy sauce, sugar, sake and black pepper. It will beat summer heat !
