SINIGANG NA ISDA (Pink Salmon Sour Soup)

Sinigang na Isda or sour soup is a Pinoy dish sour soup that is made of Pink salmon but usually we are mixing the fish Tilapia, with tamarind (or any other sour fruit ingredient like kamias, santol, or can also be kamatis "tomato" and etc.), siling labuyo, and vegetables such pechay. The fish can be any fish like bangus, dalagang bukid etc but this time we tried the Salmon.
