Ingredients

  • Cooking oil
  • ¼ cup sliced ginger
  • 5 cloves garlic sliced
  • 1 onion sliced
  • 1 tomato sliced
  • 400 g salmon belly
  • 1 cup sliced radish
  • 1 eggplant sliced
  • 2 long green chili
  • 1 pack bok choi or your choice of greens
  • 4-6 cups water
  • 1-2 tbsp sinigang mix powder
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  1. In a pan over medium-high heat, add cooking oil.

  2. Once the oil is hot, add garlic & ginger. Cook for about 2 minutes.

  3. Add tomato & onion, cook until soft.

  4. Next, add sliced radish and water. Cover the pan and cook for about 2 minutes.

  5. Add sinigang mix powder (you can adjust this later, so don’t add a lot at this point) and salmon belly. Cover and let it cook for about 3 minutes.

  6. Add eggplant slices and green chili. Cover the pan and cook again for another 2 minutes.

  7. At this time, you can turn off the heat, add the leafy greens and mix.

  8. Season with salt. Do a taste test and add more sinigang mix powder if desired.

Recipe Notes

  • You can use salmon fillet but you may need to adjust the cooking time.
  • I used sinigang sa sampalok mix but you can use other varieties.
  • You can skip the sautéing part.
