- Mixed vegetables — Julienne the vegetables thinly and evenly for a consistent texture in the dish.
- Turmeric powder — Be cautious while handling turmeric powder as it can stain surfaces and clothing easily.
- Fresh cilantro — Rinse the cilantro thoroughly and chop it just before garnishing to retain its freshness and vibrant flavor.
Tips & Tricks

- Customize the vegetable selection based on personal preference or seasonal availability.
- Substitute chicken with tofu or mushrooms for a vegetarian version.
- Adjust the seasoning according to taste preferences by adding more soy sauce or fish sauce.
- To make it heartier, top the dish with a soft-boiled egg or crispy fried shallots.
