• You can use other forms of protein like chicken or pork.
• Play with the different ingredients. You can use broccoli, carrots or pumpkins. Use whatever your bb likes or whatever you have.
• If you prefer, you can use stock instead of water but pre-frying it makes it tasty and fragrant enough so can omit using stock.
