Yes, eggs & tomatoes complement bitter melon well. DW makes a soup out of bitter melon, eggs, tomato, and chicken. We par-boil the BM to reduce bitterness. You can also cut & salt BM, which will also reduce the bitterness.

I do parboil the bitter melon. I haven't tried salting it yet, but if I get any Bitter melon this year, I will try it. Soup sounds like a winner to me!
. I hope that the seed I ordered from Baker Creek is viable. Even from Baker Creek, sometimes the seed isn't. It is to early for me to start any seed, not until probably late April.
