Good evening everyone. Every time I post a new post after only a few days of joining Hive, I get support from people all over the world. It's like a motivation for me to continue writing interesting stories that happen in my daily life. It is no coincidence that I write these things down. Everything has a reason for it and always leaves impressive memories for me, and I want to share them with all of you.
This morning I went to the market very early to buy the freshest ingredients. This is because I heard bad news from my aunt that her youngest son is currently in the hospital with unexplained headaches, and he was advised to be hospitalized for the doctors to monitor and give the most accurate diagnosis. I'm really worried about him. But right now the whole city where I live is still fighting the Covid pandemic as you know. I couldn't ride to the hospital to check on his health because of the hospital's strict rules: each patient was only cared for by one family member and no one is allowed to visit. I have also been hospitalized with my viral fever and I fully understand the hardships that patients and their families go through while there. Especially when it comes to food. If the food there doesn't suit your taste then that's a bad thing. That's why I decided to cook 1 of his favourite dishes every time he comes over to my house and asks me to make it for him.
Saute diced beef
One thing that I'm so excited to cook for him is that not only is this dish his favourite, it's actually very nutritious for him right now. Help him regain his energy to recover health quickly. Follow me to see how nutritious this dish is.

Tips to get good beef: with the naked eye you will see the beef is bright red, you can also touch the beef to be sure. If the beef is firm, has good elasticity, does not cause the feeling of sticky hands and especially does not smell unpleasant, then it is good beef. It is best to go early in the morning because the meat has just been slaughtered and is still very fresh.

- Wash bell peppers, cut into 3cm squares
- Wash onion, cut into 3cm squares
