salt and sugar to taste
10 cups water or more
500g fatty unlean beef (tetel)

Hi Suhana, after browsing some mee betawi recipes, I am going to give yours a try. Just that there seems to be too many ingredients. Can I exclude the bay leaves and the black pepper? I think its already quite spicy. Plan to cook it this weekend during open hse, and some of my guests 'takut pedas'. What do you think?
