Chef tips
To ensure all vegetables cook evenly, cut firm ones like carrots and potatoes into smaller cubes, while keeping softer vegetables in slightly larger pieces. For an extra rich and comforting finish, stir in a bit of butter or heavy cream at the end. Let the kids help by peeling the root vegetables or garnishing the dish with fresh herbs.
