Sinigang na Isda sa Miso (Fish Stew with Miso)
Sinigang na isda sa miso, a well-loved Filipino soup, is typically enjoyed as a lunchtime meal alongside rice. Numerous regional variations exist in the Philippines, but I highly recommend keeping green chiles as an essential component for an authentic and flavorful experience.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 onion, sliced
- 3 cloves garlic, crushed
- 1 (1 inch) piece fresh ginger, sliced
- 2 tomatoes, sliced
- 3 tablespoons miso paste, or more to taste
- 1 teaspoon patis (fish sauce), or to taste
- 5 cups water
- 2 pounds red snapper fillets
- 1 white (daikon) radish, sliced
- 1 bunch Chinese mustard greens with stalks
- 3 green chile peppers, or more to taste
- 2 tablespoons kalamansi (Filipino lemon) juice, or more to taste
Instructions
- Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Cook and stir onion, garlic, and ginger in hot oil until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add tomatoes; cook and stir until mushy, about 5 minutes. Stir in miso paste and fish sauce; simmer until flavors combine, about 2 minutes.
- Pour water into the pot; bring to a boil. Add snapper fillets and radish; simmer until radish softens slightly, about 2 minutes. Stir in mustard greens, chile peppers, and kalamansi juice. Simmer, uncovered, until greens are wilted, 1 to 2 minutes.
