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.
