There are many ways to make fish soup. Some people might like to fry the fish and add spices and vegetables, while others may like to use a slow cooker and add in spices and vegetables.

There is no one best way to cook it, but these are just some examples of different approaches you could take when making it. As an example, we will look at a North Eastern soup recipe that will satiate your taste buds.

Fish Soup (5 servings) contains the following ingredients: 1-kilogram fish, salt as required, 1 teaspoon Ajinomoto, 1 teaspoon black pepper, fish bones as necessary, 6 teaspoons arrowroot powder, 4 eggs, and 4 cups cold water.

  1. Wash, clean, and remove the bones from the fish. Slice the fish into very small pieces. In a bowl, combine the slices of fish with salt, black pepper, Ajinomoto sauce (reserve a little for later use), eggs, and arrowroot powder.
  2. From this mixture, roll small balls. Put a pan on low heat and add water along with the fish balls.
  3. Keep stirring the pan after you have added the fish bones, salt, and Ajinomoto (the one you set aside from step 1).
  4. After the fish balls are cooked and the water has boiled, turn off the flame, and serve the soup piping hot in soup bowls.
