3 Curry Recipes That Save My Week
If You Don’t Know What to Cook Tonight...

Hi foodie,
You know those weeks when you open the fridge, stare inside… and still have no idea what to cook?
That’s exactly when curry saves me.
Whenever I need an easy midweek meal that’s packed with flavor, comforting, and actually satisfying, I make curry. It’s quick, it’s flexible, and it always tastes like I put in way more effort than I actually did.
One thing that completely changed the game for me? I always keep a jar of homemade curry powder or garam masala in my pantry. It seriously pays off. Having that ready means dinner is halfway done before I even start. Just a spoonful instantly builds flavor, depth, and warmth, no complicated steps needed.
In this newsletter, I’m sharing 3 of my absolute favorite curry recipes: one with chicken, one with chickpeas, and one with lentils. Whether you’re craving something hearty, plant-based, or protein-packed, I’ve got you covered.
Creamy Chicken Curry
This is my go-to when I want something rich, comforting, and family-friendly. Tender chicken simmered in a creamy, spiced sauce with coconut milk and warm curry spices. It’s perfect with rice, naan, or even spooned straight from the pan (no judgment). Ready in under an hour and tastes even better the next day.
Easy Chickpea Curry
Simple, budget-friendly, and incredibly satisfying. This chickpea curry is packed with flavor but made with pantry staples. It’s naturally vegetarian, high in plant-based protein, and perfect for meal prep. The sauce is thick, aromatic, and slightly spicy, exactly what you want on a busy weeknight.
Hearty Lentil Curry
If you’ve been following me for a while, you know I love lentils. This lentil curry is cozy, nourishing, and comes together surprisingly fast. The lentils break down into a creamy texture while absorbing all the spices, creating a rich, comforting dish that feels like a warm hug in a bowl.
