KOTA BARU: A Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM) graduate here has come up with a creative way to prevent the bitter gourd cultivated by her husband from going to waste by turning them into crispy chips infused with a variety of flavours.

Aina Fatini Md Rizan, 24, said she came up with the idea after her husband Mohamad Zulfazli Mohamad Arifin, 28, faced difficulties in marketing the vegetable due to the movement control order.
