About Bitter melon with egg

Bitter Melon with Egg is a nutritious dish originating from East and Southeast Asian cuisines, commonly enjoyed in countries like China, the Philippines, and Vietnam. This simple recipe features sliced bitter melon sautéed with beaten eggs, creating a savory and slightly bitter flavor profile. Bitter melon is a low-calorie vegetable rich in antioxidants, vitamins C and A, and key minerals like potassium and magnesium. It is renowned for its potential to support blood sugar regulation and promote overall gut health. Eggs provide high-quality protein and essential nutrients such as vitamin D and choline, making the dish a balanced option. While the bitter taste may be an acquired preference for some, its health benefits are widely appreciated. For dietary purposes, moderation in added oil and seasoning is recommended to keep the dish heart-healthy and lower in sodium.
