I have had to adapt this recipe because some of ingredients are not available in U.S. This is a variety of tastes. Enjoy. I ate this dish or a variation each time I visited Okinawa. Ingredients:
1 goya bitter melon, sliced, then into quarters |
4 green tomatoes, slices, then into quarters |
1/2 sheet nori, shredded (seaweed) |
2 sweet potatoes, peeled and small cubes |
1 lb cubed pork |
10 green onions, sliced |
1 teaspoon dashi (bonito flakes) |
3 eggs, beaten |
2 tablespoons kikkoman soy sauce |
3 cups tofu, small cubes |
2 teaspoons sake |
peanut oil |
Directions:
1. Pour soy sauce in a flat bottom bowl, add tofu cubes and toss so that soy sauce is absorbed into tofu.
2. Pour oil in wok or deep fry pan, add pork cubes, green tomatoes, sweet potatoes. Stir fry. Take out of wok. Keep warm.
3. If you need more oil, add.
4. Add goya, nori, and green onions, soaked Tofu, stir fry.
5. Now add beaten eggs and dashi. Mix with Melon, nori, green onions and tofu. Stir fry until eggs are set and mixed. Add set aside warmed pork and vegetables.
6. Sprinkle saki on top, and toss.
7. Serve on large platter.
8. Goya is a different tasting melon, some say it is bitter, you might want to leave it out and substitute small zucchini, sliced.
