]]> I wanted to have bitter melon egg drop soup for a while now and today I have the opportunity to do so. I bought a bitter gourd for £3.80 last week when I was doing groceries shopping from the Asian supermarket. Yesterday I noticed that I have to eat it today for if not it will spoil. Luckily for me the hubby doesn’t mind bitter gourd at all.

I still remember the first time I cooked this 2 decades ago and when asked if it was all right for him, his replied was “I drink Guinness, and this is nothing” Happy wife! Since then, he had had been eating many types of bitter gourds recipe because it is supposedly good for the diabetic wife.

How do you make your bitter melon soup? I am sure there are many styles, but this is mine. Basic ingredients are chicken stock, dried scallops, goji berries, glass noodles, bitter gourds, eggs, few slices of ginger and seasoning – freshly ground salt & pepper

Sometimes I have crazy fancy ideas. I blame it all on watching the never ending cookery programs on television.  As a housewife who has had no training whatsoever, if I can cook this at home I am sure everyone can. I really love doing this webpage to share my ideas. 

1) Deboned chicken wings stuffed with prawns with plum dipping sauce to cut through the richness.
2) Deboned chicken wings stuffed with glass noodles with chilli sauce that goes so well with the noodles. 
3) Deboned chicken wing lollipops with sticky honey glaze in it’s own sauce.
