Single-pot dhal with toast
One burner runs the pot while the toaster does the bread.
This is the base recipe: one batch, 5 portions. Nothing has been scaled, because there is no committed plan for this dish. Build and commit a plan that includes it and this card multiplies itself to the batch count the plan computes.
- Split red lentils14.1 oz
- Turmeric0.5 oz
- Bread slices5 ea
Multiplying the ingredients is the easy half. These are the parts of the recipe that the batch count does not move.
- Cooking time
- About 30 minutes on the stove at this scale. Bringing a bigger volume up to temperature takes longer than the multiple suggests; the simmer afterwards does not.
- Seasoning
- Seasoning figures are a starting point at any batch size. Taste before it reaches the table — the multiple is arithmetic, and salt is not.
Can be finished two days ahead.

- Amounts below are one batch: 5 portions. Build a plan and this card scales itself to it.
- This can be made up to 2 days ahead. It does not take a fridge shelf while it waits.
- Stovetop occupancy is about 30 minutes at this scale. Bring to a simmer, finish, hold covered.
- Holds about 60 minutes once finished. After that, quality drops — do not invent extra time.
- Confirm every ingredient and every allergen yourself. Dietary tags are planning filters, not safety guarantees.

Base recipe: one batch, 5 portions. Nothing has been scaled, because no plan was open. Cooking time does not move with the batch: about 30 minutes at the stove either way.
Not every line here was multiplied by the same number. Why doubling a recipe is not multiplication
