This dish was a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved it! He said it was the best yam neua he's ever had. I'll definitely be making it again, but I'll use less chili peppers next time.

This recipe was easy to follow and the dish turned out great! I used flank steak instead of sirloin and it was still very tender. The sauce was also very flavorful. I will definitely be making this again.
