  • 1 (40-gram) pack Sinigang Mix
  • 2 bunches Mustard leaves (Mustasa) 

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. In a large pot, heat oil over medium heat, sauté garlic, ginger and onion, saute for a few minutes, then add tomatoes and cook until tender, mash the tomatoes well. Then add the miso paste, stir well, then add the fish sauce, if it tends to dry, add ½ cup water, cover the pot to cook further.
  2. After a few minutes, add the water (or hugas bigas), let it boil for 2-3 minutes, then season the broth with the Sinigang Mix before we add the other ingredients.  When it starts to boil we can  add the Maya Maya, you may also put in the green chillies and the mustard leaves. Cook for 5-7 minutes, taste it again if it needs additional salt.  Serve while hot…  Enjoy!

Tips:

  1. Frying the fish heads help to avoid the fishy taste of the broth, just fry it in very hot cooking oil for a few minutes; or
  2. If you don’t want additional oil in the Sinigang, you can blanch the fish quickly in very hot water, and remove the fish immediately.
  3. You can also buy the ordinary miso from the market.
  4. Aside from Maya-Maya, you can also use other kinds of fish like Bangus, Talakitok, Lapu-Lapu, or Salmon.
