  • Add vegetables to the stew: Vegetables like carrots, celery, and potatoes are great additions to this stew. They add flavor, texture, and nutrients.
  • Use a good quality broth: The broth is an important part of this stew, so it's important to use a good quality broth. Look for a broth that is low in sodium and has a rich flavor.
  • Serve the stew with rice or noodles: This stew is great served with rice or noodles. It's also delicious with a side of bread or salad.
