Recipes that are better the next day
Rajma, chole, most dals and every slow-cooked meat are better on day two, because starch keeps thickening and spices keep settling. Making them in advance is the better version, not a compromise.
Cool them fully before refrigerating and reheat gently with a splash of water rather than on high.
