I created this easy and delicious dish without using string, parboiling, and with the minimum amount of seasoning.
Cutting the meat into bite-size pieces at the beginning removes the need to slice it at the end.

The taste is not too sweet. Please adjust the amount of the seasonings to your liking.
Please be careful not to simmer it too much, it will make the dish too salty. Recipe by santababy
