I've got a fair few, but I'm starting to get bored of them because most of them have a base of garlic, onion, and canned tomatoes.

That said, I just had chipotle shakshuka. It was pretty solid.

It was likely the final straw that broke my gallbladder back in the day, but you can make some solid curry with a scoop of curry paste, a cup of coconut cream, simmered with some onions and potatoes and thrown on top of some white rice. Go to an Asian market and you can make a cheap meal that comes out to under $8 when it's all priced up. Avoid supermarkets, as they jack up prices on "ethnic" food.
