Herby Vietnamese Simmered Vegetable Flatbread

Assemble the ingredients: vegetable, stock, bell pepper, salt, turmeric, paprika, chili.

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

Stir in the aromatics and spices — the backbone of Vietnamese 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 Vietnamese accompaniments such as bread, rice, or fresh herbs.
