---

---

Hello friends how are you all doing today I hope all is well and you all are having a nice and wonderful day? And I'm very pleased to welcome you all to this week's food challenge contest.

---

In my entry I will be sharing with you all how to prepare what I call economy meal, because it's cheap to buy and very much satisfying.

---

Now for this meal I only budgeted 850 naira only (2.6 $teem), and I know you all may be wondering what can 800 naira buy in Nigeria today?

---

---

Food items	Price in NG	Price in Steem
Potato	500 NG	1.55 steem
Onions	100 NG	0.3 steem
Pepper 🌶️	50 NG	0.1 steem
Topisto tomato	150 NG	0.4 steem
Maggi	50 NG	0.1 steem

---

Total	850 NG	2.6 $teem

---

---

Step 1

---

---

In the first step this includes going to the market and buying all the above listed items, so after bringing them home I started with watching all the plates and pot and after that I proceeded to peeling off my potatoes.

---

Step 2

---

---

After I might have finished peeling the potatoes I then put them in a large bowel filled with water for the purpose of washing it thoroughly.

---

After the second thorough washing

After washing the potatoes I then change the water and put another then wash again before cutting it into smaller part and put inside the put I intended to cook with then add water into it and start boiling.

---

Step 3

---

---

In this step while my potatoes had started boiling instead of me to wait for it to be ready I then kept myself busy by slicing the onions which I will be using to make tomato 🍅 sauce.

---

This part didn't even take much time but the worst part of it is the fact that the onions gas was entering my eyes and as a result of that tears started coming out from my eyes 😂 😂.

---

My potatoes almost done

---

And after a while the potatoes was all set then I used my spoon 🥄 to check if it was soft and it was then automatically it was ready

---

Then I proceeded into placing an empty pot on the gas and lower it a little, and started with frying 🍳 the onions (now this is the sauce preparation), after frying the onions for about two minutes I then added my topisto tomatoes as well as salt which I already had, maggi and pepper and finally added some water.

---

Then I allowed it to boil for 5 minutes and since it wasn't that much it was all set and ready to be consumed then I turn off my cooking gas and breakfast was ready.

---

Step 4

---

Breakfast is ready

---

---

Now finally the moments have been waiting for which is also considered to be the most interesting part of this entry, which is the eating part.

---

	Yep! That's me with the delicious potatoes

---

After everything my potatoes was ready and also my beautiful tomatoe sauce was also ready as seen in the above pictures and without wasting much time I started eating and even had remains for the afternoon.

---

So now you can all see why I call it the economy meal because it is very affordable and also very delicious and trust me it is better than buying rice a cup for 500 naira and still it doesn't satisfy you.
