Yates Vegetable Seed Karela Bitter Melon

Sharp, pungent tasting Bitter Melon is greatly prized in Chinese, South East Asia and Indian cuisines. A wonderful flavour match with fatty, rich meats or hot chillies, it can be pan-fried, steamed or stuffed. A high quinine content brings the characteristic astringent tang and makes the juice a typical ingredient in Ayurvedic remedies. This gorgeous deep green spiny hybrid is a strong grower and delivers heavy yields.
