The instructions were a bit unclear, but I eventually figured it out. The dish turned out well, but I think it could have been better if the instructions were more detailed.

I found this recipe to be a bit too bitter for my taste. I think next time I'll add more sugar or honey to help balance out the flavor.

This is a great recipe for using up leftover bitter melon. I added a few extra vegetables to mine, like bell pepper and onion, and it turned out great.

I'm not usually a fan of bitter melon, but this dish was surprisingly delicious. The eggs helped to mellow out the bitterness and the overall flavor was very savory.
