Fish Sinigang
Sinigang is a delicious and popular Filipino dish known for its sour soup base. It typically includes meat (such as pork, beef, shrimp, or fish), a variety of vegetables (like kangkong or water spinach, radishes, and tomatoes), and a tamarind-based broth. The sourness of the soup is often balanced by adding other ingredients like tomatoes or calamansi (a Filipino citrus fruit). Sinigang is enjoyed for its tangy and savory flavors.
Ingredients
Method
- In a large pot, bring the water to a boil over medium heat.
- Add the onions and tomatoes. Let them cook for a couple of minutes until the tomatoes soften.
- Stir in the tamarind soup mix and fish sauce to the pot. Let it simmer for about 5 minutes to develop the flavors.
- Add the radishes and continue simmering for another 5 minutes until they are slightly tender.
- Gently add the fish pieces into the pot and cook for about 8-10 minutes, or until the fish is fully cooked and tender.
- Stir in the kangkong (or spinach leaves) and green chili peppers (if using). Cook for an additional 2 minutes until the leafy greens are wilted.
- Season with salt and pepper according to taste.
- Serve the Fish Sinigang hot with steamed rice.
