The taste of Tumis Sarden is an exquisite fusion of succulent sardines enveloped in a luscious tomato sauce, elevated by the harmonious blend of garlic, ginger, and chili, delivering a symphony of umami-rich, sweet, and spicy notes in every delectable bite.
Start by opening the can of sardines and draining excess water. This step ensures that the flavors of the sauce are absorbed by the sardines without dilution.
Heat a tablespoon of oil in a pan and sauté finely chopped garlic and onions until they become slightly wilted. Once the aroma fills the air, add the ginger and garlic paste, continuing to sauté until the mixture becomes fragrant.
Add the whole chilies, tomatoes, tomato ketchup and chili sauce into the pan. Mix well and add a little water to create a harmonious blend.
Now add a dash of sugar, a pinch of salt, and the umami-rich mushroom bouillon. Stir the ingredients to ensure an even distribution of flavors.
Gently place the sardines into the pan, allowing them to soak up the rich concoction. Cook until you witness the oil beginning to surface, a sign that the flavors have melded into a mouthwatering amalgamation.
Sprinkle the dish with finely chopped spring onions.
