About the dish

Sliced fish soup is a traditional fish soup originating from Singapore. There are many variations, but it’s often made with a combination of fish such as grouper, minced pork, cabbage, tofu, tomatoes, fish stock, salt, white pepper, sesame oil, cornstarch, soy sauce, and Shaoxing wine. The fish and meat are marinated, sautéed, and then cooked into a soup with the vegetables and seasonings. If desired, cooked noodles can also be added to the soup. Sliced fish soup is a staple at hawker centers across the country and it’s believed that the dish was created by the Teochew people.
