1
Prepare all the ingredients. Slice the bitter melon into thin pieces and set aside.
2
Steam the salted egg yolks until cooked, then mash them into a smooth paste.
3
Heat oil to 180°C. Lightly and evenly coat the bitter melon slices with potato starch. Deep-fry them until they are golden brown and crispy (withered texture), then remove and drain.
4
In the same pan (leave a small amount of oil), sauté the minced garlic and curry stir-fry paste until fragrant.
5
Add the mashed salted egg yolks to the pan. Stir over medium heat until the mixture becomes foamy and bubbly.
6
Add the fried bitter melon back into the pan and toss quickly to ensure every slice is evenly coated with the golden sauce. Garnish with chopped scallions before serving
