Delicious Recipe: Trung-Style Tuna Bun Noodles Without Any Fishy Taste

Below is the recipe for making Trung-style tuna bun noodles following the instructions of culinary artisan Doan Thu Thuy:

Ingredients for 4 People

– 1kg tuna, 1/4 pineapple, 2 tomatoes.

– Scallions, Vietnamese coriander, chili, shallots (dried shallots), each in small amounts.

– 1kg fresh vermicelli noodles.

– Side vegetables: banana blossoms (banana flowers), bean sprouts, water mimosa.

– Seasonings: fish sauce, salt, MSG.

Preparation

Clean the fish, cut into 2cm chunks, soak in diluted saltwater (1 tablespoon of salt in 1 liter of water) for about 1 hour until the fish turns white, then rinse with clean water and drain. Marinate the fish with minced shallots, crushed chili, 2 tablespoons of fish sauce, and 1/2 teaspoon of MSG.

Slice the lemongrass thinly. Cut the tomatoes into wedges, finely chop the scallions and Vietnamese coriander.

Slice the banana blossoms thinly, rinse the bean sprouts and water mimosa thoroughly.

Preparation

Place a pot on the stove, bring 2 liters of water to a boil, then add the fish chunks, discarding the marinade liquid.

Continue by adding the lemongrass, tomatoes, and chili slices, season with 1 tablespoon of salt, 1 tablespoon of fish sauce, and 1/2 teaspoon of MSG. Adjust the seasoning to suit your family's taste preference.

Serving

Blanch the vermicelli in boiling water, drain, place in a bowl, add a chunk of fish and lemongrass, top with tomatoes, sprinkle with scallions and Vietnamese coriander.

Serve with fresh vegetables and salty fish sauce.

Secret to Avoiding Fishiness

To ensure the tuna stays white and doesn't become fishy, cut it into chunks and soak in cold water with a pinch of salt for about 1 hour, then rinse.

When adding the fish to boiling water, make sure to add each chunk separately, waiting for the water to boil again before adding the next piece.

Do not reuse the marinade liquid.
