This dish is a vibrant, savory‑bitter stir‑fry that balances the distinctive earthiness of white bitter melon with the rich, umami depth of dried tiny shrimp. The melon is thinly sliced, lightly salted to tame harsh bitterness, then stir‑fried until just tender. Scattered throughout are bursts of concentrated shrimp flavor and tender ribbons of scrambled egg, which help to soften the melon’s bite and elevate the overall texture. Fragrant garlic, onion (or sometimes tomato), and a hint of seasoning round out the flavors, creating a harmony of freshness, mild sweetness, and satisfying umami. Served hot, it’s a nourishing and flavour‑forward dish meant to be enjoyed with steamed rice.
I went to the provincial capital to find food before, and a dish of braised duck with ginger oil made me "dizzy"! The price of 150 yuan per case is only a few pieces of meat, which made me, a meat lover, say "my wallet is crying". After returning, I immediately started the "food reproduction plan". After many experiments, I finally reproduced this delicacy! The improved version reduces the amount of oil used, but retains 95% of the original flavor, successfully turning this restaurant's hard dish into a home-cooked delicacy~ The essence of braised duck with ginger oil is to use a large amount of ginger slices to stir-fry the mellow ginger oil, which can not only completely remove the fishy smell, but also stimulate the unique aroma. The duck meat is slowly stewed with ginger oil. The skin is slightly chewy, but the inside is tender and juicy. Every fiber is full of salty, fragrant and slightly sweet thick sauce. The moment the lid is opened, the rich fragrance hits you in the face. Eating it with white rice is simply the ultimate enjoyment of the taste buds!
