  Prepare the ingredients

  Green onions should be washed clean with cold water, then drained and chopped finely.

  Coriander should be cut off at the root, washed thoroughly, especially the root part to avoid any mud sticking to the stems, then drained and chopped finely.

  Pennywort leaves should be picked and washed clean with water, then drained and chopped finely but not too mushy!

  Garlic should be peeled, crushed, and minced until finely chopped.

  Tomatoes should be washed clean, drained, then the stems removed and cut into wedges.

  Marinate the beef

  Add the minced beef into a bowl, then add 2 tablespoons of cooking oil, 1 tablespoon of seasoning, 1 teaspoon of sugar, 1/2 teaspoon of pepper, and 1 tablespoon of chopped green onions. Use a spoon to mix well and marinate for 15 minutes.

  Tip: If you buy minced beef that already contains some fat, you do not need to add too much cooking oil. If you are on a diet, you can completely omit the oil! However, you should choose meat with some fat; otherwise, the beef will be dry after cooking.

  Sauté tomatoes and beef

  Place a pot on the stove, add 1 tablespoon of cooking oil, turn the heat to high to heat the oil, then add 1/2 of the minced garlic to fry until fragrant.

  When the garlic is fragrant, add the tomatoes and stir-fry on high heat, then add 1 teaspoon of sugar and 1 teaspoon of seasoning, continuing to stir-fry until the tomatoes release their juice. Then add water to about halfway up the pot and continue to simmer.

  Next, heat a pan on the stove, add 1 tablespoon of cooking oil, then add the remaining minced garlic and fry until fragrant over high heat, then add the marinated beef and stir-fry for 2 minutes.
