This hearty and flavorful **Twisted Dough and Veggie Stir-Fry** is a comforting dish that combines chewy handmade dough with a savory mix of tofu, carrots, and potatoes. The secret lies in the texture—rested dough is twisted into small squares, creating a delightful bite that soaks up the rich, aromatic broth. A fragrant base of dried chili peppers and scallions adds depth, while a touch of Sichuan pepper brings a subtle warmth. Simmered until tender, the veggies meld perfectly with the dough, making each spoonful satisfying. For an extra kick, drizzle with chili oil before serving. Perfect for a cozy meal, this dish is as visually appealing as it is delicious, with golden-brown potatoes, vibrant carrots, and tender tofu in every bite. A must-try for lovers of rustic, homestyle cooking!
