“While not a traditional Filipino dish, my grandmother added the necessary proportions of canned pink salmon, tomatoes, onion, and loads of garlic to make this dish a Filipino family favorite. Serve alone or on top of rice. ” - by RINGONIAN

Directions

Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the garlic and onion; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the tomato and cook until softened, then add the salmon. Flake the salmon and continue cooking for 3 minutes. Stir in water, bay leaf, salt, pepper, and fish sauce. Bring to a simmer. Cover and cook for 20 minutes.

"This is easy, delicious and versatile. I did make a few changes however. I used 2 cups chicken broth and 1/2 cup of water in place of the water, to add more flavor. I also used a can of sliced toma..." See moretoes and broke them up a bit. I also added 2 stalks of celery and 3 slender carrots to the garlic and onion. The last 5 minutes I threw in 2 cups of chopped fresh spinach. Also, one 6 oz. can of salmon was enough for my taste. This can go in an Italian or Asian direction depending on how you season it. I will make it again. (Fresh salmon and basil would really knock it out of the park.)"

"Great and easy to make stew! I used chicken broth instead of water. I also used less broth..more like 1 cup and 1/2. I prefer stew consistency vs. soup. Added 2 tablespoon of brown sugar as well...." See more"
