Ingredients
1 bitter gourd
~400g prime ribs
1/2 tsp chopped ginger
2 tsp chopped garlic
1 tbsp garlic black bean paste
2 tsp sugar
Hot water
Starch water
1. Pour boiling water into a bowl of prime ribs (thaw to room temperature). Let them soak for about 5 minutes. Drain away the water and set aside.
2. Cut bitter gourd into large chunks. Remove the seeds and the whitish fibre. Sprinkle and coat the chunks with a little salt if you want to reduce the bitterness.
3. Heat a tbsp of olive oil in a pot in medium high heat. Add in chopped ginger and garlic, stir-fry till fragrant.
4. Add in the prime ribs and stir-fry for about 1 to 2 minutes. Then add in the bitter gourd chunks. Stir fry till the bitter gourd chunks slightly turn darker green.
5. Stir in the garlic black bean paste to coat all the ingredients. Add in enough hot water to cover about 2/3 of the ingredients' height. Try to let the prime ribs sit under the bitter gourd chunks. Bring to a boil, lower the heat and let the ingredients simmer till the pork softened.
Stir the ingredients occasionally.
6. Add in sugar and salt to suit your taste. Stir in the starch water to thicken the gravy.
7. Garnish with coriander and cut chilli. Ready to serve with
