Stir-Fried Bittergourd

When I only have 30 minutes and no meat, I go vegetarian.

Fried Bittergourd (and rice)

Stir-Fried Bittergourd (15 mins)

Bittergourd

Garlic

Salt

1. Wash the bittergourd by running it under cold water and rubbing it.
2. Cut off the ends and then cut the bittergourd into half (longwise) and dig out the white stuff in the middle.
3. Slice the bittergourd (shortwise) as thin as possible.
4. Crush, chop and dice 3 cloves of garlic.
5. Heat up the non-stick frying pan, pour in some oil.
6. Fry the garlic until they get a little golden brown.
7. Throw in the bittergourd and fry it for a bit. 
8. Pour in some water and cover the frying pan to soften the bittergourd. 
9. After about 1 minute, lift up the cover and let the water evaporate. Stir it continuously to prevent it from burning.
10. Add salt and stir.
