- 8 tablespoons tomato ketchup

Instructions
- Apply Knorr Liquid Seasoning all over the tilapia. Let it stand for 10 minutes so that the fish can absorb the flavor of the seasoning.

- Pour white vinegar and water. Let boil.
- Add tomato ketchup. Stir until it completely dilutes in the mixture.

- Put carrots and bell peppers. Cook for 3 minutes.
- Combine cornstarch and 3 tablespoons water. Mix well. Pour into the cooking pot. Stir until sauce thickens.
