Step-by-Step Instructions
- Prepare the fish by cutting the white fish fillets into bite-sized pieces and set them aside in a bowl.
- In a large pot, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium heat. Add diced onion, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until onion is translucent.
- Pour in 2 cups of vegetable or fish broth and increase heat to bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Allow it to bubble quietly for about 5 minutes.
- Stir in 1 can of coconut milk until fully combined. Let it continue to simmer for another 3-4 minutes.
- Add 1 cup of halved cherry tomatoes and 1 sliced bell pepper into the pot. Simmer for about 5 minutes until the vegetables soften.
- Stir in 1 tablespoon of fish sauce, along with the juice and zest of 2 limes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Add the cut fish to the pot and gently stir. Cook for 5-7 minutes until fish becomes opaque.
- Taste the soup one last time, adjusting seasoning with additional salt, pepper, or lime juice if needed.
- Remove from heat and garnish with fresh chopped cilantro and lime wedges before serving.

Notes
For the best flavor, use fresh, high-quality fish and don’t overcook. Serve with crusty bread or a light salad for a complete meal.
