How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose fresh gourd
- When buying gourd, you should prioritize choosing those that are of moderate size and feel heavy in your hand.
- Fresh gourd is one that has a fresh stem, with no black spots on the skin.
- Do not choose those that feel light, soft, with a hollow and spongy interior, scratched skin, or with a wilted stem as these indicate spoiled or poorly stored gourd.
How to choose fresh, quality chicken eggs
- Choose fresh chicken eggs with a dark brown shell, even in color, without cracks and without black spots.
- You can use your hand to feel the surface of the eggshell; if the surface is rough and slightly coarse, then it is fresh chicken eggs.
- Avoid buying chicken eggs with a smooth surface as these eggs have been stored for quite a long time.

Making stir-fried gourd with eggs
Place a pan on the stove over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of cooking oil, wait for the oil to heat up, then add minced garlic to sauté until fragrant.
Next, add the gourd, season with 1/2 teaspoon of seasoning powder, a little water, and stir well over medium heat for about 1 minute, then add the egg mixture from earlier and stir well to prevent the eggs from clumping.
