Pinakbet is a dish of sauteed mixed vegetables usually including
some bitter melon.
Slice bitter melon into half lengthwise; remove seeds and white
center. Slice bitter melon into 2" pieces.
Take bitter melon and salt good and let set in bowl for about 15
minutes while you prepare other stuff. This will remove some of the
bitter taste and make it just right.
Heat oil in large pot. Add garlic ginger and onions to heated oil and
saute until soft (onions will be translucent) Add pork and cook until
browned. Add tomatoes and Bagoong alamang, and cook for 5 minutes Add
3 or 4 cups of water and bring to a boil Stir in eggplant, bitter
melon, okra and long beans. Simmer for 15 minutes or until tender,
stirring occasionally. Salt to taste.
