Ingredients A (For the stuffing)
450g minced pork
1 tbsp light soy sauce
1 tbsp oyster sauce
1 tsp minced ginger
2 tsp minced garlic
1 tbsp Shaoxing wine
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground white pepper
3 medium-sized dried shitake mushrooms, soak and diced
1 small onion, finely diced
1 tbsp finely diced carrot
Ingredients B (bitter gourd)
2 medium-sized bitter gourd
1tsp salt
Ingredients C (Black bean sauce - optional)
2 clove garlic
2 tbsp store-bought black bean paste
1 tbsp Shaoxing wine
2 tsp oil
1 tsp cornstarch (mixed with 4 tbsp of cold water)

Method:
- Remove both ends of the bitter melon, then cut into rings of about 3/4 inch (2cm) height.
- Remove the seeds and scrape the inner surface with the spoon until it is clean.
- Sprinkle a large teaspoon of salt on them and mix well. Let it rest for fifteen minutes.
- Remove the bitter melon from the salt solution. Rinse away the salt with water.
- Mix all the ingredients A in a large mixing bowl. Leave up the meat paste and repeatedly smash it back to the bowl until it is well combined, sticky, and pasty.

- Steam over medium heat for fifteen minutes.
- Remove the stuffed bitter melons and place them on a serving plate. Drizzle the gravy on top and serve.
Black bean sauce (optional):
