How to Cook Delicious Tomato Braised Tuna for Dinner
Ingredients
- Tuna
- Tomatoes
- Seasonings: fish sauce, cooking oil, broth mix, sugar, pepper, chili, chopped spring onion, minced garlic, minced purple onion

Steps to Prepare Tomato Braised Tuna
Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients
Clean the tuna, rinse with a bit of white wine to reduce fishy smell, then drain.
Wash and chop the tomatoes.
Crush or finely chop the chili according to taste, chop the spring onions.
Peel and chop onions.
Step 2: Marinate the Tuna
After preparing the tuna, marinate it with sugar, salt, broth mix, fish sauce, MSG, minced purple onion, chili, garlic, pepper, and crushed spring onion heads. Place in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes for the flavors to infuse.
Step 3: Fry the Tuna
After marinating the tuna for about 15 minutes, heat oil in a pan and fry the tuna until golden brown on both sides. Frying the tuna before stewing will make the fish sweeter and prevent it from becoming fishy.

Step 4: Stew the Tuna
Sauté finely chopped garlic and onions in cooking oil until fragrant. Add tomatoes when the garlic and onions are fragrant. Season with 1 tablespoon of fish sauce, 1 tablespoon of sugar, and 1 tablespoon of bouillon powder. Stir well and simmer over medium heat until the tomatoes are soft. While simmering, ladle the sauce over the fish to evenly coat it. This is the most crucial step to ensure the fish stew with tomatoes is flavorful and tender, so pay attention.
