A great and easy recipe that a lot of students make for example is: https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/236564/chana-masala-savory-indian-chick-peas/
If Indian food is your thing, I'm happy to think of other easy/quick recipes!

It's been a while since I last read them, and I loaded them up on my Kindle as, for the first time, I don't have access to our decades-old copies.

- Released: January 17, 2020
- Genres: Indie Rock
Recommended tracks:
- Eat, Sleep, Wake (Nothing but You)
- Everything Else Has Gone Wrong
- Get Up
- Is It Real
This is the latest album from Bombay Bicycle Club. I think people may be familiar with some of their other work, their other albums that I usually recommend are the debut I Had The Blues But I Shook Them Loose, and So Long, See You Tomorrow. I also find it especially funny that this album is called "Everything Else Has Gone Wrong" and it was released in January, right before things got a lot worse.

My MS years were fantastic, and very satisfying. I think an MS at least allows you to shape it the way you want, we have the option of just taking slightly more advanced classes than a Bachelor's, all the way up to not taking many classes at all and instead spending time on research. No two people really had the same experience, IMO. I unfortunately have no idea what things are like in UK, nor your chosen field. But exciting!
Good luck!

I also just picked up Civ VI and it'll be my first Civ game, but I haven't had a chance to really play it because of finals. :(

Yikes! Apologies for the slow response, I've been rather occupied with things.
I hope I'm not too late for the lockdown and you're still able to get supplies.
Most Indian curries you hear about are typically from the Northern part of the country. I hail from the south where the cuisine is quite different. But also, a good curry isn't hard to make at all, and you can usually make something that's good and healthy with practically any vegetable. My go-to usually includes bell peppers, cottage cheese (paneer), mushrooms etc (really, it can be anything) cooked separately from the curry base. I make that by frying some onions with cumin seeds and ginger-garlic paste, then adding a tomato puree and a bunch of spices - chilli powder, garam masala (in moderation - this is honestly great to have for most simple recipes), turmeric. I also use yogurt to thicken it up a bit and then mix in the vegetables I cooked separately. We eat this with rotis or rice, depending on how we're feeling that day.
Now this is quite Indian, so I'm also finding some recipes that are more westernised.

https://www.olivemagazine.com/recipes/vegan/maharashtrian-amti-dahl/ - most dal (lentils) dishes are absolutely delicious and ridiculously easy to make. They go well with rotis and rice.
https://www.olivemagazine.com/recipes/entertain/vegetable-and-paneer-dum-biryani/ - more work than the average dish, but I adore biryani.
Apologies again for the delay, let me know if you get a chance to try any of these out! Always excited to introduce people to the cuisine, though I'm far from an expert. Stay safe!
