CHANA MASALA is a quintessential Indian dish which is equally appropriate at a dinner party or weeknight supper,” says VANITA ASHAT,
a cooking school coordinator.
Baked potatoes night after night can suck the life out of any dinner creation. Step outside your comfort zone and use these spuds to make a dish inspired by the cuisine of India.
This two-potato Chana Masala is a great option for anyone new to South-Asian flavours or South-Asians looking to take their household favourite to the next level.
"This two-potato version is hearty and rich, plus it's vegan and gluten-free." >>>

CORDLESS DRILL/DRIVER.This portable power tool makes light work of drilling holes and driving screws.
LEVELS.A 4-ft bubble level is best used on large surfaces – the smaller torpedo level works nicely in confined spaces.
COMBINATION SQUARE.This square is used to position hardware, such as hinges on doors, and to check right and 45˚ angles.
CARPENTER'S PENCIL.The pencil's flat design keeps it from rolling off surfaces and it is used for marking and laying out hardware.
UTILITY KNIFE AND PUTTY KNIFE.A utility knife will handle most cutting and trimming jobs. You'll need a putty knife for filling holes and patching.
MITER BOX.This tool is used with a handsaw to cut accurate 45˚ and 90˚ angles. The miter box is most often used for cutting trim and molding to length.
SCREWDRIVERS.Your toolkit should include different sizes in both Phillips and Robertson. Or, you can consider at four-in-one screwdriver that holds four bits - two standard and two Phillips, which should meet most jobs.
SAFETY GEAR:Eye and ear protection; dust mask or respirator; knee pads; work gloves; work boots; and, a good first aid kit.
For best results, look for quality in the tools you select and invest in a tool bag or carry-all to keep your essentials well organized and easily accessible.
