Hello dear Steemians,

Dish for 5 Steem

 

The task this time is quite interesting because it will an idea what we can effort for 5 Steem converted into our currency. Different countries have different prices, depending on economy of country but also probably on climate, if it is warm country with good agriculture then the vegetables and fruits could be cheaper and probably one of the main ingredients of our daily food. In many countries meat is more expensive.

When I was looking at our place and estimating what food we can prepare for 5 Steem it made me sad because it ivery limited choice.

First, in order to give you an idea how much the food costs I give some examples:

https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/steem/gbp

That means 5 Steem will be £0,9 it is not much

The only what I could think off is this little salad, but just one portion of this, what I need for 3 portion, the prices are taken from supermarket "ALDI"

https://groceries.aldi.co.uk/en-GB/fresh-food/fruit-vegetables/prepared-vegetables

• one aubergine - £0,89
• three small tomatoes, appr. £0.30
• two small carrots, appr. £0,20
• a half of small onion, appr. £0,10
• three garlic cloves also maybe £0,10

So altogether will be appr. £1,50 or it is appr. 8,33 Steem for 3 portions and will be 2,9 Steem for one portion

 

Aubergine salad

 

To start with we need, of course, aubergine. I usually cut it into rings, then put into bowl and add salt that usually takes the bitter juice of aubergine away, so you need to keep them in bowl and every 30 min or so make sure that the juice is removed.

 

The other vegs also been cut, carrots in small pieces, as they are usually harder and need a bit more time. As to tomatoes, I usually use only hard part and juice is removed, otherwise, it changes the taste of aubergine. Some people use dried tomatoes, that is also OK.

 

 

 

Now you are ready to fry them.

FRYING THE VEGETABLES

---

 

I always start frying with aubergine, because it is now relatively dry and gives no juice so your pan is relatively clean, make sure that you turning them from side to side and they reach golden colour.

 

 

After that I add carrots, again they do not have much juice less water then less problem with oil splashes, then tomatoes, while they are ready I add onion, till golden colour, then all the fried veg, will be added into the same pan, add salt and chilli, at the end garlic and I leave the lid for at least 5 min. I do not cook too long otherwise everything will be too soft and you do not feel much taste of onion and garlic.

 

 

 

 

Here you go, ready to eat:
