Goya ゴーヤ

 

A Copic marker drawing of some Okinawan goya (aka bitter melon). The goya in the drawing kind of have a textile pattern to it. Goya in Okinawa is very popular and has many health benefits. Though it is very bitter, goya chanpuru is a stir fry, commonly mixed with spam, tofu, and eggs. When the dish is prepared this way, you don't notice the bitterness as much. Fun fact: Goya is a fruit.
