Tips:
What I did was to use the simplest seasoning. The special thing was that I used a part of fresh chili. The taste is brighter and the color is more beautiful with fresh chili. You can also add shrimp sauce or fish sauce (I don't like to eat spicy cabbage that smells like seafood). You can also add leeks. The radish is also delicious. When the radish is more delicious in late autumn, you can add the radish.
