just made chili and goddamn owns

also, protip: double your loving seasoning. No, wait, it is going to be weakass still, triple it. Beans respond really well to spices, use that to your advantage. I mean, have you seen Arab cuisine and chickpeas? Mexican food and red/black beans?

a simple, versatile and totally kickass meal:

- one or two cups of chickpeas, cook in the pressure cooker
- meanwhile chop one or two purple onions, mince garlic, squeeze the juice of half a lemon, mince chives (and/or leek), dice a couple of tomatoes into cubes for later
- drain chickpeas
- get your largest skillet ready, throw some fat on it
- stir fry the onions, garlic
- throw the chickpeas
- season salt, pepper, paprika, turmeric, any/all other seasonings and spices of preference, really, but the four here can't go wrong
- throw chives/leek
- put the lemon juice, stir well
- turn the heat off, let it hang out for a few seconds, throw the diced tomatoes, reinforce seasoning as needed

I have to agree. I think when most people start their hand at homecooking they feel it tastes more tasteless or not as good as restaurant quality and get bummed out because they followed allrecipee.com or healthcookedmeals.blog. There's sort of an diametrically opposed goals. People want to think they're cooking a healthy meal for themselves and recipes that seem popular must be popular because its good not because its light on poo poo; however, reality is most restaurant food has an absolutely fuckton more spices, salt, oils/butter than people would feel comfortable with if they were doing it at home because it seems like ~wow thats so much spice~.

friend who is chef says this all the time: good food requires the good stuff

and imho this is where a lot of people get a wrong impression, like boosting up the fat content is inherently bad... But like, adding another two tablespoons of a good oil for an entire batch of stuff like stir-fried beans that have a lot of fiber to begin with is a good call in terms of taste. Better yet, reducing meat consumption, particularly more problematic ones in terms of health, gives a much better fat allowance in diets

for example, by not eating meat during weekday dinners, it is very acceptable to use lard to stir fry some veggies sichuan style, which is heavenly
