Sinigang na Isda sa Kamias or fish sinigang is a type of Filipino sour soup. This soup dish makes use of fish, tomato, mustard greens, long green peppers, and onion. The souring agent for this sinigang recipe is bilimbi, which is locally known as kamias.
This Sinigang na Isda sa Kamias recipe is straightforward. You can enjoy your sour fish soup dish in less than 30 minutes; this recipe will only requie you to boil the ingredient – there is no sautéing involved, which means that this dish is not oily at all.
I used fish steaks for this Fish sinigang recipe. Do not limit yourselves with fish steaks, you can also use medium whole fish such as tilapia (sinigang na tilapia), pompano, grouper, red snapper, or any type of fish that you think is appropriate.
As for the kamias, I used the fresh frozen ones that I got from the Filipino store, but you can always consume fresh kamias or sun dried kamias.

Hi po! Pwede po kayang imeal prep ang dish na ito? Hindi po kaya mapapanis kagad pagnasa ref sya in a few days? Hope someone will reply. Thank you.

Hi, this is someone 🙂
Meal prepping soups (especially if it involves fish) means freezing it. I don’t recommend it to be kept inside the fridge for longer than 1 day.
I usually place this in individual bowls and cover it. Place it in the freezer, and thaw the night prior to its planned consumption. Hope this helps.
