Thanks so much Marta!
Well bitter melon does have different names, its also called Bitter gourd or karela. You can refer this link to get more info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitter_melon
WHat a great way to make bitter melon. I've only had it chinese style. Lovely!
Sabby-Another winner! Unfortunately we cannot find bitter melon in our market here, in S, Florida, and we don't have an exotic produce market, other than Latina, or Asian produce market. I love the beautiful photo, and the recipe of it...perhaps I can make it with regular melon?
Sure Elisabeth. You can give a try with regular melons and let me know how they came out :)
