Taste as you go and adjust the seasoning before serving.
Avoid overcrowding the pan — cook in batches if needed for the best texture.
Let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving so the flavors settle.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
