The Korma Convergence Principle
What we may think of as food is not food at all, but rather a manifestation of our beliefs of what we want from our lives. Why take the easy way out? Precisely because it is easy. It is natural to follow the smoothest course downstream because ultimately efforts will be preserved for future endeavors. But rejoice! We are in a time where we may look upon our future with optimism because our current needs are fulfilled. Thus we may use our energy to benefit our present selves. So why bother with poisoned food? It makes little sense that we believe we are benefiting from food produced by our current modern standards of productivity. Genetically modified? More like spontaneously gratified. We should be holding our systems of production to the highest of standards but instead we let them trample us and our world because we are too slow to realize that our practices are degenatory to the point of no return. In light of this catastrophic, apocalyptic scenario that has found itself in our reality, I offer you this humble recipe.

Too many ingredients? That’s what I thought when I first cooked this dish but it so easy that you won’t know what to do with all the food you make form this recipe. The first thing you’re going to want to do is chop up all the vegetables you’re going to use. If you are feeling like a chef you can heat up your pan before you start and fry your garlic and onion in olive oil. Once that smells nice you can add all of your vegetables and start cooking. The carrots will be the crunchiest at the end and that’s okay; they should be. Potatoes are your measurement tool for the rest of the vegetables. Once those are soft, add the tomato sauce and heavy cream and spices. Stir that all around and let it simmer. You are going to need a big pan or cauldron for this. Let it simmer and add your raisins, cashews, coconut and frozen peas. Now let that simmer for a little longer and you are done! It is that easy, as long as you stay organized.
The heat does all of the work for you. That is the best part about this dish. All of the ingredients simmer together to make something really tasty. And that is the best part! It is easy! No longer must you slave away to make a meal that will impress. Whether it be for yourself or for a gathering, this dish will prove intoxicating. It is healthy, especially served over brown rice, because there are multiple amino acid compliments at work–just another great factor of this dish.
But most important is its accessibility. It is this the industry defying factor that makes this dish so special. No more must you rely on processed food. As long as you have access to a few root vegetables, tomato sauce and milk, you can makes a delicious dish that is cheap, easily reproduced, and produced in large quantities, especially when served with rice. This is so important given our current state of reliance on production. Instead of having the system make your food you can make something levels better that gives you dividends you can’t even imagine. Not only will you regain your independence from the food industry, you will be empowering yourself and your body. Making something consumable can be incredibly empowering because you are doing so independently for yourself or loved ones. You can bring control to an aspect of your life that has been suffocated by the intrusion of capitalism.
Liberation means freedom. Now you can embrace a new side of living that may have been previously unknown. Hopefully, this recipe empowers you to try and make food that is healthy and easy. Maybe your dish can be cooked in large quantities like this one so there are leftovers and you only have to cook every few days. Or maybe you are empowered to stop buying processed food and start preparing your own meals. Whatever you choose I hope this dish has proven to you that healthy and convenience does not have to mean processed. A few easy steps might be slightly more time consuming than simply microwaving a prepared meal but it will pay off with healthy, tastier food and sense of empowerment that eating from the industrial food system will never bring you.
