Classic Hong Konger Baked Vegetable Kebabs

Assemble the ingredients: vegetable, butter, cinnamon, paprika, onion, water, lemon juice.

Warm oil in a heavy pot. Add the vegetable and cook until baked.

Stir in the aromatics and spices — the backbone of Hong Konger flavors.

Add the remaining ingredients and cook gently, stirring occasionally, until tender.

Taste and adjust seasoning; the flavor should deepen as it cooks.

Plate and serve with traditional Hong Konger accompaniments such as bread, rice, or fresh herbs.
