I make this chana masala every month or two and I really like it! All the ingredients you can’t find in the grocery store are not necessary but make it better. I also find it might be a little work for someone that doesn’t cook a lot but isn’t really challenging if you put in the effort. As a result, you get a warm, spicy bowl of curry.

I have this for days on end and never get tired of it. So many ways to subvert the format with spices and garnishes. It is VEGAN (I am not vegan but respect) so it's something everyone can enjoy.

One pot makes four hearty meals!! Cheap and easy and great to spend an hour on it one night and be sorted for half the week.
Brief recipe:
Heat oil/butter
Finely chop at least three cloves of garlic and warm
Throw in some cumin, turmeric, chilli flakes, and any other spices you like (I use a korma blend with different ones in)
Keep stirring so garlic doesn't burn and when they're fragrant throw in a cup or so of lentils to toast (I like red unsoaked ones)
Add in 1 or 2 sweet potatoes (cubed into small pieces) and keep stirring
Throw in a can of good chopped tomatoes
Add a cup and a half of hot water and vegetable stock
Big stir
Bring to a boil
Ten minutes later reduce to simmer (goal is to cook off the water)
Simmer for five minutes
Add in a can of coconut milk and stir
Stir in a couple handfuls of kale to wilt
Add salt and pepper
Once you're satisfied it's reduced enough (around 20 mins cooking time) turn off heat and leave for ten minutes
Done! Healthy and delicious

Its a web app that people submit 1 song per week and then everyone gets to vote on the all the different songs but their own. After all the rounds have been completed, the person with the most votes wins! Its a fun way to share music with people and get competitive. Been using this app with other online communities and friends for a few months and have really been enjoying it.
NOTE: I created a PI.FYI League where the first submission is this friday. I limited it to 25 people for now not sure if I should open that up to more but it would be pretty overwhelming to have more than 25 songs to listen and vote on. The join link is attached to this rec!
