Ulo-Ulo Salmon
Report
Salmon Belly stewed in juicy tomatoes and oyster sauce is easy to make in under 30 minutes! It's moist, flavorful, and perfect with steamed rice.
Share:
Ingredients
- 2 pounds salmon belly, cut into serving pieces (or salmon fish heads, split into two)
- ½ cup vinegar
- ½ cup water
- Salt and pepper to taste.
- 1 tablespoon canola oil
- 1 onion, peeled and sliced thinly
- 3 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
- 1 thumb-size ginger, peeled and julienned
- 2 Roma tomatoes, chopped
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 1 bunch pechay, ends trimmed and leaves separated
Instructions
- In a pot over medium heat, combine salmon belly, vinegar, water, and salt and pepper to taste.
- Bring to a boil, uncovered and without stirring, for about 2 to 3 minutes or just until fish changes color. Drain fish, reserving liquid.
- In a skillet over medium heat, heat oil. Add onions, garlic, and ginger, and cook until softened.
- Add tomatoes and cook, mashing with the back of a spoon, until softened and release juices.
- Add reserved liquid and bring to a boil.
- Add salmon.
- Lower heat and simmer until fish is cooked through.
- Add oyster sauce and stir to completely disperse. Season with salt and pepper, if needed.
- Add pechay leaves and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes or just until wilted. Serve hot.
Notes
- You can use either salmon heads, bellies, or a combination of both. However, I wouldn't recommend using salmon fillets as they don't have enough fat to bring out the best flavor and may dry out in the two-step cooking process.
- When cooking in the vinegar, boil uncovered and without stirring to mellow out the strong acid taste.
