Kuting's Kitchen - Ginisang Ampalaya with Egg

Ampalaya is not loved by many because of its bitter taste.  But, you will find in this entry that it is possible to lessen the bitterness.  Although, some may still find it not ok but you be the judge :)

Ginisang Ampalaya with Egg

Ingredients:

1 medium sized ampalaya, thinly* sliced

2 tomatoes, sliced

1 onion, sliced

garlic

salt and pepper

oyster sauce

water

1 egg

Steps:

1.      Saute garlic, onion and tomatoes.

2.      Add the ampalaya.

3.      Add oyster sauce.  Add a little water if becoming dry.

4.      If ampalaya looks a little soft already, add egg.  Mix.

5.      Season with salt and pepper.

6.      Cover and let it cook for a while until done.

*Kuting’s Tip:  In preparing the ampalaya, you have to slice it thinly.  Put salt then mix with hand.  Wash the salt off from the ampalaya under running water while still mixing with hand.
