My family doesn't love tofu the way I do, so I thought I'd spare them
for the three weeks.

Recipe, please? I make a lot of dals, but I can always use another.

Not actually sure. It's what the noodles-and-seasoning thing is called

essentially a stir-fried noodle dish with a slightly sweet/salty spice
