SLS33-From My kitchen To Your Plate Week#6 Budget Feast[Popcorn]
I prepared a budget-friendly recipe at home, and the recipe that I prepared was popcorn. I prepared low-budget popcorn at home for myself and my neighbours, and in preparing this popcorn, I didn't spend much amount of money in preparing it.
My budget was ₦10,000, which is equivalent to 180 Steem, but I ended up spending less amount of money; I spent ₦3,800, which is equivalent to 61 STEEM.

The reason why I chose this recipe is that I have been craving it for a very long time now. I chose it because I also want to learn how to prepare popcorn myself at home after watching several videos. The videos that I watched before preparing this popcorn really helped me to prepare my popcorn the way that I want it to be.
Ingredients:
The ingredients that I used are:
- Popcorn corn
- Cooking Butter
- Vanilla flavour
- Sugar
- Milk

- I put in the popcorn and began stirring it over medium heat. While stirring it, it started popping, and then I covered the pot and started shaking the pot.

Popcorn is one of those snacks that looks very simple, but making it yourself can actually be fun. I liked that you decided to prepare it at home after watching different videos and then tried your own version with butter, sugar, vanilla and powdered milk. That makes the post feel more personal than just sharing a recipe.
The part where the corn started popping and you had to cover the pot and shake it made me smile 😂. That is always the moment when you suddenly become very serious about cooking because those little kernels can make the whole kitchen sound like a mini celebration. The pictures also helped show the different stages clearly.
One observation from the post is the cost. At one point you mentioned spending ₦3,800, but later wrote ₦5,000 before giving the breakdown that totals ₦3,800. It would be better to keep the amount consistent so readers don't wonder which figure is the correct one. Also, since the challenge asks for a full menu, adding a simple drink or another small item could make the submission stronger next time.
Still, I like the simple idea behind this entry. You had a craving, learned how to make it yourself, and ended up sharing it with your neighbours. That's a pretty good way to turn a small craving into a little community snack party. 😄
THANKS FOR INVITING ME, I WISH U BEST OF LUCK 🤞...
Thank you sir. Yes you will have to cover your pot immediately the popcorn start popping otherwise it will pour away.
