Yaki udon- stir fried udon noodle

It's difficult to think about your fashion sense in hot conditions as most of your interests are how to stay cool. So lately I really miss the seasons where you can enjoy co-ordinating your fashion. These are early and late winter, spring and autumn.

You can choose a different style dress or T-shirt (for men) to be fashionable in summer but you cannot add as much of your sense. Basically you only rely on the designer's sense. When it's a little colder, you can customize your basic clothes with the combination of layers. These could be a jacket, boots, a scarf, socks etc. This can show the person's sense and character, i find this more fun...

Today I will fry udon with bitter gourd ("goya" in Japanese). The nice bitterness gives you some appetite when you are tired. You can also use canned tuna instead of bacon.
Ingredients:
boiled udon
bitter gourd
onion*
bacon
enoki mushroom*
ginger
garlic
soup (dried fish, 2~4tbsps)
salt and pepper
chili powder
soy sauce
*Anything you like

1- Cut the vegetables, garlic, ginger and bacon.
