Greetings to you all my beloved steemians in this community, it's your favorite girl @missyleo. It's another week of the cooking contest, and I would love to appreciate @chant for always organizing this amazing contest.

In this my entry, I will be showing you a steps by steps method on how to prepare porridge yam and including the amount of money it cost me both in naira and in steem, thank you for reading till the end.

The name of the dish I prepared this very week, today to be precise is Porridge Yam I chosed to prepare this meal because I already had the yam at home which I bought a week ago, and the rest of the ingredients was gotten from a nearby shop in our street, while some ingredients was at home.

^{My ingredients}

Porridge yam is an easy food to prepare and it doesn't really need much ingredients.

• Yam

• Vegetable leaf (pumpkin)

• Onions

• Oil

• Bonga fish

• Maggi

• fresh pepper

• Salt

• Crayfish

I have two different ways of preparing my Porridge Yam, the frying method and the non-frying method. But I prepared this very one using non- frying method.

• I peel and washed the yam, then I dice it into tiny piece, then put it into the pot.

• I pounded my crayfish and fresh pepper and set aside and also sliced the onions.

• I put the slice onions into the pot of yam and added salt and pepper, then I set it on fire.

^{On fire}

• I allowed it boil for 10 to 15 minutes

• I added red oil, crayfish and maggi and allowed it to boil for about 5 minutes

• Then I used the spatula and turn it so that everything will enter it body.

^{Putting the vegetable as the last ingredient}

^{Tasting it to confirm}

• I now put the bonga fish and vegetable leaf that I have sliced and set aside, I turn it again with the spatula and then allowed it to simmer for 1minutes then I put it down, the food is read

^{Presenting my food with a touch of smile}

So I dished out the one I want to eat and I did justice to it as it demanded (smile).

^{Porridge Yam about to go down the system}

Yam has high level of carbohydrates, which is a very good source of energy.

• It also aid in digestion process due to the present of fibre.

• Yam porridge also boost the immune system.
