Based on the onions, I’d say… dinner.

12 spices and herbs?!

Is there a protein?

Mexican style pickled carrots and jalapenos

escabeche?

Gajar curry

It looks like an Indian curry of sorts, I’ll take a stab: From left bottom I’d say the spices are as follows. Cloves, coriander seed, jaggery sugar, cumin seed (not sure about this as there are two very similar portions), garlic powder, cumin seed again, Methi, bay leaves, curry leaves, Cumin seeds again, although it could be anise or fennel or caraway (not so typical)? Black pepper and salt. Then aside from what looks to be green jalapenos de-seeded, onions, carrots, you have mustard oil perhaps and other clear liquids (maybe water or white vinegar.)

Edit: it looks also like you may be doing something in three phases, could it be a pickling project?

Having onions for breakfast makes for a quiet day at work.

Micromanagers hate this get-out-of-meetings life hack!

Eau de Oignon is my signature scent.

I don’t know but I appreciate the effort you went to place each spice in it’s own little dish

Bet it’ll be goood

When doing some Indian or Mexican recipes these little metal cups are absolutely essential for proper mise en place. I was saddened to discover that I had exactly one metal cup left over. Which means I have exactly the right number or I need 6 more.

Taqueria pickled peppers.

I’m guessing no.
