Hello everyone. I hope you are good wherever you are seeing this post. Today, I'm going to be joining the contest on steemfood and I'm going to be showing you how I prepare my recipe. I hope you will like it. Let's get started.
Step by step Preparation of My Practical Recipe — Spaghetti and Egg
I'm going to be giving step by step on how to prepare spaghetti and fry eggs in this post. I want to you to follow me closely as I will be showing you. Spaghetti is one of the food that's easy to cook and it doesn't take too much time before it's cooked.
Step 1:
The first step you must take note if you want to prepare spaghetti and fried egg is to get all the necessary equipment and ingredients you need. So, i will list the equipment and ingredients we will need for this.
- Cooking gas
- Pots
- Knife
- Plates
- Spaghetti – 1.5 steem
- Eggs – 1 steem
- Pepper and onion – 0.3 steem
- Salt and Maggi
- Water
- Blenders
- Vegetable oil – 0.4 steem
So, if you have gotten all those things, then, you can start cooking.
Step 2
The next thing is to decide if you want to cook the whole spaghetti or you want to cook a little portion. A standard spaghetti is 500g and it costs about 1.5 steem. For me, I have decided to cook everything. A picture of 500g spaghetti is attached below.
![IMG_20220427_130016.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmRvSZ4yNcaiEH7mQWUh5VpoQjHMJQ2VK5F8UZ9WnSND7Z/IMG_20220427_130016.jpg)
Step 3:
The next thing to do after deciding whether to cook all or a portion of the spaghetti is to put water in your pot and put it on fire. Put 2-3 litre of water in your pot if you are cooking 500g. And that's what I have done in my own case. See the attached picture below.
![IMG_20220427_130256.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmRS47h1qYN5zd1UC93F1mQoDro16Fg7yy49VSzuLjsciA/IMG_20220427_130256.jpg)
Step 4:
Next is to allow the water on fire to boil. Then after the water is boiled, break the spaghetti and put it in water. You must do this gently so as to avoid hot water being splashed on your hand.

Step 5:
Allow the spaghetti to cook for about 10 minutes. It should do within 10 minutes. But it's pertinent to know that some spaghetti takes lower time... There are some that's will be done within 5 minutes. So, you can always check the cookies time on the spaghetti nylon if you aren't sure.

Step 6:
Next thing I t prepare a basket to filter the water from the spaghetti. So, after 10 minutes of cooking and you see that the spaghetti is done, pour it inside the basket to filter the water from the spaghetti. See the attached screenshot below.
![IMG_20220427_132357.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmNVonQxtiEeJsYcm7oaScU8K9drYDnQ6JCUxtEQ7Xn9bT/IMG_20220427_132357.jpg)
Step 7:
Now, next is to prepare the pepper and mix the egg with it before putting it on fire. So, wash your pepper very well and pour it inside the blender. The pepper cost about 0.3 steem.
![IMG_20220427_130530.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmTGzWhnhtDqdagAuMYBZA7M5Cvt5W31R66saV92YKFGKM/IMG_20220427_130530.jpg)
![IMG_20220427_130546.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmaN6WK8U3tznGqQkqfjYLy6bLY8PrNhg39DmnoKFFefHW/IMG_20220427_130546.jpg)
Step 8:
Next is to grind or blend the pepper with blender. In the attached picture below, you will see how I was using the blender to blend the pepper.
![IMG_20220427_130719.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmdZCKTRpU1grnxP1FpZLCB887Y1aXJB19Be2qwrXQeSEY/IMG_20220427_130719.jpg)
Step 9
After finishing blending the pepper, pour it in a plate and bring your eggs that you want to mix with the pepper out. I mixed four eggs with the pepper. The eggs cost about 1 steem. See the screenshot below for the blended pepper and the egg.
![IMG_20220427_131616.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmedjsW2et7nuQNCTS8K9qpwGfCPkeiiRzM5r5heiGGkwH/IMG_20220427_131616.jpg)
Step 10:
Break the egg gently and pour it inside the pepper and mix it thoroughly. You can use tea spoon to mix it very well. See the screenshot below.
![IMG_20220427_131841.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmfXUkKtsDY7zZGxQUhCbVevs9tU6mUpa6Yr2TULwbmosf/IMG_20220427_131841.jpg)
Step 11:
Add salt and Maggi to the mixture. Or you can add them before you start stirring it. You can use only one cube of Maggi. But make sure you don't put too much salt.

![IMG_20220427_132025.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmZ6CokbmqGvLA3aHpeamTqRwERFh1VHYXFoiHzhJ3yDyg/IMG_20220427_132025.jpg)
Step 12:
Next is to put a pot on fire. Then put vegetable oil I the pot. I used about 0.05litre of vegetable oil to fry the egg which is about 0.4 steem. See the screenshot below.
![IMG_20220427_132452.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmPXYHh58TAZBpTV2hagXtLaM3v9kwrqtxkFauNPQYxuoR/IMG_20220427_132452.jpg)
Step 13:
The next thing is to allow the oil in the pot to heat for about 1 minute. See the attached picture.
![IMG_20220427_132506.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmSWhuupE9VuXtSSSXG7Rw2eFq8ZNNAd32rfsyUMrg2uC1/IMG_20220427_132506.jpg)
Step 14:
Then pour the pepper and the egg you have thoroughly mixed inside the pot on fire. Then begin to stir it so as to not lumps of egg. See the screenshot below.
![IMG_20220427_132544.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmYPev8343wAYxjgi6aVonmMKcs4Sbxu5cprgkH9r9B8y9/IMG_20220427_132544.jpg)
Step 15:
When the mixed pepper and eggs begin to for lumps, slice onion inside. Then, once you finish slicing onion, turn it or stir it gently and allow it on fire for like 2 more minutes.
![IMG_20220427_132845.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmb9X5KUifNWSXCY6PdFvvPZt66AfSqTinBL7hF23K6PNb/IMG_20220427_132845.jpg)
Step 16:
Then, when you have allowed it for 2 more minutes, off the cooking gas. It should be done. See the screenshot below.
![IMG_20220427_133212.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmXgdTR7aSRJ12NiQVAvinjXxN6FMuZjq6GjM5ZP7PT4xD/IMG_20220427_133212.jpg)
Step 17:
Then, we have the spaghetti and the fried egg with pepper. Then you can dish your food in plate and put the fried egg with pepper on top of the spaghetti. Yummy! See the attached screenshot below. You will see how I dished mine.
