one way you can save money when preparing your food is by boiling it. This will mostly help Nigerians as a lot of food needs boiling and steaming. It is a lot cheaper than when you try to fry them with oil and then garnish them to be sweeter. Oil now is very expensive.Preparing yams, potatoes, plantain etc are way cheaper as you only need water to steam the food. I do this a lot and money is saved. what do you think?

Actually, I love eating boiled foods. I boil eggs, potatoes and vegetables like broccoli, cauliflower and lettuce. I also like steamed fish. Cooking this way does help to save money by using less cooking oil.

That's the essence I just found out that a bottle of oil now is 1200 naira this is all time high.

Frying oil is very expensive in Nigeria now. It is better to steam than to fry now. Even people that do ocassions don't fry any longer.

Yeah it is really appalling now. I bought a bottle a month ago for 1500. I do more of steaming now.

For me l like cooking the food by frying and boiling depending on the type of food that l am preparing. I don't really think whether it can be a money saving tip for me.

Certainly, I boil a lot of food into broths and soups. I use a slow cooker which can be cost-effective.

No one in their right senses would ever think of frying foods in this time when that food has an option to boil. Frying oil is so expensive.
