A Weekend On 50p Per Day - Limited Budget Food Challenge - Day 2

On day two of the 50p-per-day challenge, he avoids repeating yesterday’s meal and chooses pasta with onions, peppers, and cheese. He develops a buttery sauce using chicken stock, butter, cheese, garlic powder, and pasta water, while filming makes cooking difficult. Despite initially over-salting it, adding more pasta balances the dish; he calls it his best pasta, better than previous carbonara.

The experiment turns severe budget constraints into an unexpectedly successful cooking discovery.
