Fish Sinigang (Filipino Sour Fish Soup)

My goal is always cheap, easy, and delicious, so I just use what I can find around the kitchen. As I’m writing this menu, my mouth is already drooling, so keep away from the pot while you are cooking this. 

Prep time: 7 minutes
Cooking time: 23 minutes
Cost: $8-10 
Will serve 4-5 peopleIngredients: 
2 lbs frozen fish fillets (I use haddock but whiting also works and is cheaper)
4 cups chicken broth
2 Tbs lemon juice (Sinigang powder is not available everywhere so I use lemon)
I cut up onion
1 Tbs minced garlic or 4 cloves chopped garlic
1 Tsp black pepper
2 potatoes cut in cubes
1 lb of your favorite frozen veggies

Boil and simmer all the ingredients except the fish and frozen veggies for 13-15 minutes
Put the fish and frozen veggies in and let boil and simmer for 10 minutes

Serve with brown or white steamed rice. 

Now my mouth is really watering thinking of sour it is. If you accidentally drool on the pot, just boil for another 5 minutes to kill the germs.
