Very tasty!

I just had a successful experiment for supper tonight with the dried
bitter melon I have to hand; I soaked it, then braised it with some
aubergine in a bit of the soaking water until soft. I finished it with
a tablespoon of yoghurt and seasoning, and served it alongside a Thai
green curry with chicken. Yum : )
