Tips:
1. Adding fennel and cinnamon can reduce the fishy smell of beef. If you are really afraid of this smell, you can add a little ginger or cooking wine during the boiling process, which has a good effect of removing fishy (don't add too much)
2. Because potatoes are added and there are carbohydrates, it is very easy to stick to the pot and collect juice. Be sure to check the bottom of the pot frequently
3. Add sugar at the end, one is to improve the freshness, but to collect the juice more beautifully. If you are a diners who are accustomed to northern cuisine, this sugar can be left on, which basically does not affect the taste.
