Ingredients :

3/4 kilo of fish
1 onion, diced
2 tomatoes, diced
1 head garlic, minced
2-3 pieces of taro, peeled and cut into 2×2-inch cubes
1 bunch of kangkong (leaves and upper stalks only)
1 bunch kamote tops (leaves only)
2 eggplants, sliced
1 green chili pepper
1 pack of “sinigang” mix (I used tamarind-based) good for 1 liter of soup
1 tbsp. cooking oil
salt or patis (salted fish sauce)

How to :

Cut fish into serving pieces. Set aside.

Heat oil in a big saucepan or casserole. Saute garlic. Add onions, chili pepper and tomatoes. Stir until onions are transparent and tomatoes start to crumble. Add 1 liter of water and salt or patis. Add taro. Bring to a boil. Simmer until taro is almost tender. Add the eggplant and simmer for 5 minutes. Pour in the sinigang mix. Next, add the fish and simmer for 5-10 minutes, depending on how big your fish pieces are. Add kangkong and kamote tops. Simmer for another minute then remove from heat and transfer to a serving bowl. Serve immediately.

    [...] the lion fish i caught and asked them to cook it with Tamarind soup or sour soup. Here we call it Sinigang. David loved it. Then they served the Lobsters, actually everything else. So he took some lobster [...]
