Cooking tips
- Avoid stirring the stew too vigorously with a spoon when cooking the tuna, as this may break up the flesh and make the broth cloudy and messy—let it simmer undisturbed for a cleaner result.
- If oyster sauce is unavailable, substitute with 1 tablespoon of dried anchovy sauce in equal amount for a similarly rich and refreshing depth of flavor.
Recommended for
