Ingredients

1 large loofah / luffa
2 eggs
1-2 teaspoons fish sauce (nuoc mam)

Instructions

First prepare the loofah / luffa. Wash and dry. Peel the skin (if needed). Then slice at an angle into ½-inch wide pieces.
In a small bowl, beat the two eggs and add a pinch of salt. Set aside.
In a large pan over medium-high heat, add a little oil followed by the sliced loofah. Stir fry for 2-3 minutes until the loofah softens.
Season with the fish sauce (nuoc mam). Add 1 teaspoon first and then taste. If you want more, then add the second teaspoon.
Push the loofah to one side of the pan.
Pour in the eggs and turn the heat to medium. Scramble the eggs until they are just set (try to keep the eggs from mixing into the loofah).
Once the eggs are set, gently fold/mix the eggs and loofah.
Then it's ready to eat! Great with a bowl of rice.
