Marinate the meat: Cut the meat into appropriately sized pieces, then dip them in the prepared marinade. Carefully coat each piece to ensure the marinade penetrates the meat.
Marinating time: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight. This will ensure the meat is incredibly tender.
Cooking: Heat vegetable oil in a skillet and cook over medium heat, turning every few minutes, until browned. Then add a little water, cover the pot with a lid, and simmer for 30 to 40 minutes.
Serving size: You can serve the finished meat with your favorite side dishes, such as rice or roasted vegetables.
Serving and storage tips
Serving size: Meat tastes best immediately after preparation, when it is still warm and juicy.
Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat over low heat to prevent drying.
Variants
Spicy marinade: Add your favorite spices like coriander, turmeric, or smoked paprika to the marinade to give the meat a stronger flavor.
Vegan version: You can use the same trick to marinate firmer vegetables like eggplant or tofu.
