Cooking question

So... when you cook dishes in the game, it costs MORE resources to make a dish than you end up with. Example; to make 1 curry it costs you 1 meat and 2 grains. For 1 bread it costs 3 grains. Meat soup costs 1 meat and 1 vegetable. 

How is that worth it to lose more resources than you gain? The only logical reason would be if the end product curry or bread or meat soup would actually be 5 meals or 3 meals or feed much more than the ingredients? But I don't know if that's actually true? 

And is 1 particular type of meal made got the best efficiency to make if that's the case?

First of all, each serving of curry and broth, like the basic food, is for one person only.

However, one portion of meat, one portion of grains, and the final product is four portions of curry. At the lower right corner of the food picture, the quantity of the product at one time will be marked.

So is this correct then? (1 meat + 1grain = 4 curry)

I mentioned a portion of grain?? Sorry, I made a typo. There are two copies.This translation software is a bit hard to use

Although in most cases, the prepared dish can feed more people—since fish cakes are made from one portion of fish and two portions of grain to yield three portions of fish cakes, keeping the total quantity unchanged—I don’t usually bother making dishes myself. The process feels somewhat tedious, and there’s currently no financial pressure in the game that would require me to scrimp and save every coin.
