BITTER MELON STIR FRY OKINAWAN STYLE (GOYA CHANPURU)



Bitter Melon Stir Fry Okinawan Style (Goya Chanpuru) image

Goya canpuru is bitter melon stir fry. It's considered the representative dish of Okinawa prefecture. It includes pork belly, firm tofu and eggs. You can take a lot of nutrition from it, and it's so delicious. Bitter melon and other ingredients are good combination. Pork belly and bonito flake add the umami flavor. And Tofu and eggs make the dish mild. Nicely balanced flavor is addictive. Now is the best season for bitter melon, so it's one of the popular main dishes in Japan especially in summer. When you use tofu for stir-fry food, draining it is important. The food will be not watery and you can reduce the amount of condiment, for example soy sauce.

  • This dish is made of four main ingredients (bitter melon, tofu, pork belly, eggs), all of which need prepping.
  • Prep the bitter melon. Cut the bitter melon in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds and the white pith. Slice the bitter melon into half-moon pieces, about 1/2-inch thick. Put the bitter melon into a bowl, sprinkle salt all over and set aside for 10 minutes (the salt will help drain water from the bitter melon and make it less bitter). The rinse the bitter melon well under cold water and set aside to dry. Once dry, pan fry the bitter melon over medium heat with a little oil. Fry about 5 minutes until it's lightly browned. Set aside.
  • Prep the tofu. Cut the tofu into small rectangle bricks (I make 16 pieces from one block of tofu). Pan fry in a little oil until all sides are brown. Set aside.
  • Prep the pork belly. Cut the thin sliced pork belly into three pieces each (about 2-3" inches wide). Set aside.
