A plate of sweet potato squash barbeque. Sweet potato and squash are usually added to meat as extender to patties in home kitchens. Now I'm using it to make an alternative for meat. I have some egg yolks that which are not used in making my Swiss meringue. This is perfect for my recipe today which I call squash potato barbecue.

I made an experiment on this so I could share something useful to those in very tight budget, especially those who are really struggling, like the poorest residents in this place.

Their main problem is how to prepare meals for a family of six in a day that costs only less than $3. This is sad but this is the reality in poor communities in this country that belongs to the third world.

Ingredients:

5 medium sized sweet potatoes chopped
4 egg yolks
50 g squash peeled and chopped
1 bouillon cube (any flavor)
1 tsp salt
2 cups water
4 Tbsp corn starch / flour
1 tsp barbecue powdered mix
2 Tbsp soy sauce
2 Tbsp vinegar
3 Tbsp brown sugar
4 Tbsp warm water
pinch of pepper

Steps:

Place chopped potatoes and squash in a pot then add water, bouillon and salt. Place over medium heat and bring into boil. Stir occasionally while cooking until tender.
