Bitter Gourd

Bitter gourd or ampalaya hanging on our fence. Who would have thought I who has a black thumb would have these at home?

This is just one of the few we have in our little vegetable garden 🙂

Uncooked of course 🙂 Some recipes here.

It has been said the bitter gourd is good fr the health because it aids in the digestion and lower elevated blood sugar levels among others.
