Shrimp in Sour Soup

What a beautiful day Foodaholics!

Today I'll be sharing one of my favorite food dish--Sinigang! A Pinoy style dish famous for its variety of ingredients and sour taste. Sinigang often incorporates fish, pork, chicken, shrimp, or beef. This time I’ll be using Shrimp for this recipe. 

 Ingredients

 1 Kilo Shrimp 

8 pcs Tamarind (Sampaloc) or 1 pack Sinigang Mix 

1 big Onion (diced) 

3 big tomatoes (quartered) 

2 pieces Radish (sliced) 

1 bundle Sitaw (Strringbeans) 
2 eggplant (sliced)

1 bundle Kangkong 

4 okra

8 cups ricewash or water 

2 tbsp. vegetable oil

Salt or Patis (fish sauce)

Cooking Instructions:

1. Put some oil in a casserole, sauté onion and tomatoes.
2. Bring water to a boil.
3. Add the shrimp, and simmer for 3 minutes.
4. Add the the vegetables (string beans, radish, okra, eggplant) and simmer for another 3 minutes.
5. Add the Sinigang mix or tamarind.
6. Season with salt and fish sauce if your not yet satisfied with the taste.
7. Lower the heat, then put the kangkong leaves.
8. Serve hot.

I love having this dish because the taste of the shrimp complements the sour taste of the soup. Yum... yum... yum!
