Ampalaya or Bitter Gourd is one of those vegetables packed with nutrients and dietary fibres that is beneficial to our health. And this Sautéed Bitter Gourd that we are going to make today is so easy to prepare.

Not all would eat Ampalaya for its bitter taste why they call it a bitter gourd. Personally, I don't eat it before. I just hate the taste. But one time my office mate made her own ampalaya and I fell in love with it.

The secret lies to its preparation. With the help of my @steemph friends in Discord @romeskie & @twotripleow who told me that the bitter gourd must soak first to water with salt then Squeeze its juice to eliminate its bitter taste. But you also squeezing that vitamin over there, remember!
