Classic Honduran Braised Vegetable Casserole

Assemble the ingredients: vegetable, yogurt, garlic, bay leaf, parsley, turmeric, bell pepper.

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

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