I recently had an opportunity to work remotely in Hilo, Hawaii. Being the never-ending cheapskate, I opted for a housing situation that was literally a bedroom built on top of a patio between a house and a garage. It did not include a kitchen, but did include a lot of cute geckos as well as a microwave and a toaster oven. It was an amazing opportunity to improvise all kinds of cheap and fun dishes out of local weeds. Here is one of my favorites.
Bitter Gourd (Momordica charantia) Vine Ramen
Ingredients
A generous handful of small Momordica charantia vines, the tenderest ones
1 egg
1 packet spicy ramen such as MaMa
Directions
Wash and chop the vines, set aside.
Microwave the ramen with hot water in a microwave safe bowl. When it's boiling hot, stir in the egg well. Microwave 30-60 seconds longer. Toss in the vines. Stir.
Consume.
