Ingredients
  

  • 500 g tomato cut into wedges
  • 1 tbsp oil
  • 2 cloves of garlic minced
  • 1 stalk of green onion white parts only
  • 3 cups (750 ml) water
  • 450 g fish fillet
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 tsp fish sauce
  • ½ tsp sugar optional
  • A handful of dill

Instructions
 

  • In a medium sauce pan, heat the oil on medium high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the garlic and onion stalks and saute until they’re fragrant and lightly golden.
  • Drop in the tomato wedges. Let them sizzle for around 3 minutes or until they start to wilt lightly. Control the urge to toss them around too much.
  • Add the water and let simmer until small bubbles appear.
  • Add the fish and turn to high heat but do not let the soup boil vigorously. Season with salt, fish sauce and sugar.
  • Remove the pan from the heat. Serve hot and garnish with plenty of dill.
