Both are like the same, in this case.
Just to make it little clear, Stock ROM is like an OS and flash file is like the setup that is used to install it

if i want to cook a custom rom can i use the flash file and customize it ?
then can i flash it using custom recovery ?

Check if it is not corrupted ... Use latest twrp to flash it
You can download the last stock ROM at [ota.scloud.lfengmobile.com/ota/1523439935_FULL_X500_X500-CN-OP-DBXCNOP5902812084S-5.9.0.zip]
Attention: you cannot flash the package with official TWRP, only 3rd TWRP or official EUI recovery works.

Use OrangeFox recovery and flash that via fastboot. From there, you can flash the ROM on that version of MIUI. Kindly read the instructions on the ROM page.

Yup. However, if you are on the latest TWRP (3.5) then you can just follow the ROM instructions right away without using ofox.
