Tips:
1. For beef, fresh sirloin is best. 2. Do not blanch, soak in cold water for one or two hours. 3. Simmer slowly, keeping the pot in a slurping state. 4. Don't put the cherry tomatoes too early, cook them too early, just make sure to make the cherry tomatoes soft. 5. When hawthorn plays a role in improving freshness and making the meat easier to cook. niur
