Ingredients
- 1 pound salmon belly or fillet*
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- 1/2 medium onion diced
- 2 tomatoes diced
- 5 tablespoons low-sodium white miso paste
- 4 cups water
- 1 cup taro cut into 2-inch pieces
- ¾ cup string beans cut into 2-inch pieces
- 3 - 5 chilies* thinly sliced, optional
- 1 sinigang seasoning packet*
- 1 1/2 tablespoon fish sauce or to taste
- 4 large bundles bok choy* leaves separated
Instructions
- Season salmon with salt & pepper on both sides.
- Heat a large pot on medium-high heat. Once hot, add about 1 tablespoon of oil then sear salmon for 1-2 minutes per side, or until golden but not cooked through. It'll finish in the broth. Remove & set aside.
- Add onions & tomatoes for about a minute, or until they begin to soften. Add in the low-sodium white miso paste and saute for a few seconds, or until well coated. Pour in the water, cover, & bring to a rolling boil.
- Add taro, string beans, chilies (if using) then cover and cook for about 5 minutes, or until they start to become tender but not soggy.
- Gently add the fish to the soup, cover, and cook for about 5 more minutes or until the fish is cooked through. Be very gentle while stirring because you don’t want the fish to flake apart in the soup.
- Add the fish sauce, then enough sinigang seasoning to your desired sourness. Sinigang seasoning brands vary slightly in saltiness and flavor. If you get to a level of sourness you like, but the soup is lacking saltiness, add more fish sauce.
- Toss in bok choy and cook for a couple more minutes, or until they’re wilted. Turn off heat and serve with steamy hot rice. Enjoy!
Notes
- Thai Chilies: Substitute with jalapenos if unavailable or skip for a non-spicy soup.
- Miso: Use low-sodium white miso for better salt control. Adjust regular miso to avoid excessive saltiness.
- Salmon: Salmon belly is ideal, but fillets work too. Salmon head or cuts with bones enhance broth flavor.
- Sinigang Seasoning Packet: You can find it at local Asian market or use tamarind paste/concentrate with more fish sauce/miso for added saltiness.
- Bok Choy: Mustard greens are typically used for sinigang but if unavailable, you can use bok choy or spinach.
