Hot pot is great for this.

I've come pretty far as a home cook but this is still something I struggle to master. Mostly cause I look at what I have leftover and I'm like "Well I could make this... if I had XYZ ingredients too, which I don't."

This tool is kinda nice for this exact situation ❤️

Yay! Goulash!

This has kind of been my strategy to cook more at home. Buy more than I intended to buy - force myself to come up with a meal plan before they all go bad.
Before I only bought what I intended, and that caused me to be lazy and eat out more often than I wanted.

I used to get take-out at this place where for a reasonable price you'd get: strips of breaded chicken, rice, and a container of curry sauce. The chicken and rice tasted great by itself, and the curry sauce went well with ANYTHING. I mean, week-old leftovers, vegetables about to expire, bread about to go stale, you name it. I tried other curry sauces and it didn't work. Just this magic curry sauce that went with anything you had left in the fridge.

This is the modern evolution of the drawer full of taco bell sauces

And out comes the best meal you’ve ever had. Completely irreproducible, because you won’t ever have a half-rotten potato, three paprika slices, 7 separate types of pasta, and leftovers from 2 days lying around.
Reminds me of the best French onion soup I ever made. Had been freezing meat trimmings for a year leading up to it.
