Gather @fresh cilantro{0.5%bunch} and @red chili{1}.

Bring the @water{1.2%l} to a boil with the @garlic{3%clove} and simmer 5 minutes to build a light base. ~{5%minutes}

Add the @tomato{2} wedges and @pineapple{200%g} and simmer 5 minutes until the tomato starts breaking down. ~{5%minutes}

Season with the @fish sauce{3%tbsp} and @sugar{1%tbsp}, then taste — it should hit sour, sweet and salty all at once before the fish goes in.

Slide in the @salmon{500%g} chunks and simmer gently 6–7 minutes until just cooked through. ~{7%minutes}

Stir in the @bean sprout{100%g} and @lime{2} juice and take the pot off the heat immediately.

Ladle into bowls and finish with cilantro and sliced chili.
