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." >>>

WHAT SOME OF JOANNE’S CLIENTS HAVE TO SAY...“JoAnne was amazing! I had never sold a house before, so I didn’t know what to expect. After interviewing six other Realtors, I decided JoAnne was the one for me. Her experience, etiquette, and negotiating skills were outstanding. Along with her strong integrity, JoAnne also did a great job of marketing our home. We sold our house in less than three weeks at a price we were very happy with. Thank you JoAnne, for always being there for me with your prompt responses to all my questions, and for making the experience as easy and stress-free as possible.”
“We were lucky enough to work with JoAnne and her top notch team to sell our home. JoAnne’s professionalism, positive attitude and her experience alone stands out amongst the best. Rest assured by choosing JoAnne you will be provided with outstanding service. Quite simply, she gets the job done.”
“Thank you for all of your support and guidance in finding our first house! You have been with us every step of the way and we cannot thank you enough. You are one-of-a-kind and we are so lucky to work with you.”

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.
