Goya Chanpuru is a traditional Okinawan stir-fry dish known for its vibrant flavors and nutritional benefits. The star ingredient is goya, or bitter melon, combined with tofu, egg, and thin slices of pork or Spam, seasoned with soy sauce and sometimes bonito flakes. Originating from the Ryukyu Islands of Japan, Goya Chanpuru reflects the region's focus on simple, wholesome cooking. Bitter melon is rich in vitamins C and A, and believed to support digestion and blood sugar regulation. Tofu adds plant-based protein and calcium, while eggs contribute to healthy fats and protein. However, pork or Spam can add saturated fat and sodium, so moderation is key for a balanced meal. This dish is a testament to Okinawa's reputation for longevity and is enjoyed both for its health benefits and unique taste.
