Рецепт Sinigang na Tilapia

by Manny Montala

Sinigang na Tilapia This is simple fish sinigang recipe made with tilapia fish and the souring agent used is tamarind. The cooking procedure is as simple as the other fish sinigang you can find. Unlike other meat based sinigang, the cooking time is very short and only requires 2 to 3 minutes specially if it is only fish fillet. I think this is the cheapest fish sinigang you can make since tilapia, compared to other fishes, is abundant and you can see it almost everyday in the wet market. There are different breeds of tilapia if you are not aware of and my suggestion is choose the ones that does not taste muddy or too fishy. Since this dish is a soup, it will be very unpleasant if you get the kind of tilapia that taste muddy. And for you to make the rice wash, it is just simply getting the water from the raw rice while washing it. But first discard the first washing. The second and third will be used.   How to Cook Sinigang na Tilapia   Print Prep time Cook time Total time   Author: Manny Recipe type: Fish Recipe Cuisine: Filipino Serves: 6 servings Ingredients 1 kilo tilapia, cleaned, scales and innards removed and cut into 2 pcs each 3 pcs tomatoes, quartered 1 pc onion, quartered 2 pcs green chilies or siling haba 1 thumb sized ginger, sliced 150 grams sampalok (tamarind fruit) ¾ cup talbos ng kamote (sweet potato leaves) 2 to 3 Tbsp. patis or fish sauce 1 pcs small radish, slice diagonally 6 cups rice wash or rice water pepper to taste Instructions How to cook Sinigang na Tilapia: In a pot, bring the rice wash to a boil.
