Beef and batata root stew. Cost: $3.83 (Beef $2.33, Batata root $1, shiitake mushroom $0.5)

COOKING
Cube beef and batata root. Marinate with meat tenderizer for 10 min. Slice longhorn green peppers, garlic and ginger. Add them to heated oil. Stir in cubed beef. Season with salt, soy sauce, rice wine and vinegar. Cook till brown. Slice up shiitake mushroom. Add them together with batata root and some water to electric pressure cooker.

NUTRITION
Beef provides protein. This is my first time trying batata root. It smelt like yam. It is high in fiber. The shiitake mushroom contains minerals I need.

TASTE
It is salty, sweet and sour. I'm dipping bread in it. It is YUMMYYYYYY.
