Cooking salmon in a can with onion, garlic and tomato is Today's Delight

When my mom opens up a can of salmon, it was sautéed in onion, garlic and tomatoes. It is simmered for a few minutes and seasoned with fish sauce or salt.

Rice and salmon drizzled with its sauce and fish sauce is so good.

It is a simple recipe but scrumptious especially if I haven’t had it for a while. One thing I like about it, it doesn’t taste or smell fishy at all.

Another easy way I like preparing salmon in a can is serving it right out of the can. In a small bow, mix vinegar, chopped red onions and salt. Drizzle salmon with the vinegar mixture and it’s yummy!
