Weeknight Malagasy Spiced Vegetable Bake

Assemble the ingredients: vegetable, salt, cumin, flour, cinnamon, stock, water.

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

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