As a full-time housewife, I always have a feeling that I'm obliged to stretch out the budget and find affordable dishes until the next "sweldo" arrives.
My kids are picky eaters. They don't eat veggies especially if they see it in chunks. So, as much as possible, I try to incorporate one or two kinds of veggies to the viand and make it appear appealing to their eyes with the hidden veggies in it.

| Home-cooked Burger Steak |
I have always loved the Jollibee burger steak ever since it came out in the market. My family and I also consider the burgers as our comfort food. So, I decided to make a home-cooked burger steak meal which is delicious and affordable.
Here's my recipe.
Ingredients:
For the burger patty:
400g ground pork (107pesos from Savemore)
1 medium size carrot (13pesos from the nearby Sari-Sari Store)
1 onion (3pesos)
garlic (2pesos)
3tbsp flour (3pesos)
Salt and pepper
For the gravy:
1 can button mushroom (34pesos)
garlic (2pesos)
1tbsp flour (1peso)
1/2 cup of water
1teaspoon soysauce
Salt and pepper
Procedure:
Mix the ground pork, grated carrot (I used the cheese grater), diced onion and garlic, salt and pepper, flour and water (to bind the ingredients together). Form it in a shape of burger patty then fry.
In a separate pan, saute garlic, button mushroom, then add the slurry (mixture of flour and water to thicken the sauce) then add the salt and pepper to taste. Add a teaspoon of soysauce for the desired light brown color. Stir in low fire until you get the consistency of a gravy.
Pour over the cooked burger patties and serve.
You can make 8 pieces of delicious burger patties that costs 165pesos only.
Ganun talaga, if you're on a tight budget, you could think of yummy and affordable recipes easily. 😉
