How do I report a one time $200 cash payment on an amended 2020 tax return?

Hello, 

 

Back in 2020 I did a one day moving gig for a family friend of a friend. They paid me $200 in cash. I totally forgot to report it back when I filed my 2020 taxes. I'm amending my 2020 return for a different reason entirely. I figured I would add this while I'm at it. How do I report this? I don't know their name or TIN number. Additionally, this was a one-time thing it wasn't part of a side gig or freelance work.
