Night record

Planning here works on its own. Once a night starts, it travels between the three tools by itself.

Cooking notes

Charred corn, lime & chilli

Fast burner work at the end; needs a hot pan free right before plating.

Base recipe

This is the base recipe: one batch, 8 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.

What does not scale

Multiplying the ingredients is the easy half. These are the parts of the recipe that the batch count does not move.

Cooking time
Pan time scales, because a second panful is a second turn: about 12 minutes at the stove in total. Crowding one pan to save a round drops the heat and stews it.
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.
Method
  1. Read the whole method before you shop. This is a planning recipe for charred corn, lime & chilli, not a certified kitchen test.
  2. Amounts below are one batch: 8 portions. Build a plan and this card scales itself to it.
  3. Stovetop occupancy is about 12 minutes at this scale. One pan, do not crowd.
  4. Holds about 20 minutes once finished. After that, quality drops — do not invent extra time.
  5. Confirm every ingredient and every allergen yourself. Dietary tags are planning filters, not safety guarantees.
Make-ahead

Day-of only. Do not make this ahead and invent a hold.

Scaling

Base recipe: one batch, 8 portions. Nothing has been scaled, because no plan was open. Cooking time does not move with the batch: about 12 minutes at the stove either way.

Not every line here was multiplied by the same number. Why doubling a recipe is not multiplication
