Most people don't like bitter gourd as it is bitter. As for me, I like bitter gourd. In fact, I find it tastier if it's bitter. Bitter gourd rice vermicelli (bee hoon) soup is very yummy especially if you eat it with bird's eye chili (cili padi). I had my first experience with this yummy soup when we were eating out about 2 years ago. It costs RM5.00 to RM5.50 per bowl in Kuala Lumpur. Since then, I used to cook this dish quite often and you can just add any ingredients you like. It has been quite sometimes I didn't cook this dish and lately due to the hot weather, I cooked this dish as it is cooling for our body.
