A small breakfast shop in the street market, supporting the family and making money

After the greetings in the box, Leng Yan did not see Zhao Jingsheng. Manager Zhao said that the young master went back to Beijing after returning from the Western Regions. After all, it was almost the end of the year.

Leng Yan nodded in understanding, and was then taken by Manager Zhao to an ice cellar filled with slaughtered beef and mutton.

"The boss said that it's the end of the year now, so we should make more money in the last one or two months so that everyone can go home and have a good year."

Shopkeeper Zhao pointed at the beef and said, "That's why the young master went to such great lengths to buy so much beef and mutton from the Western Regions and brought it back freshly frozen.

Apart from those who took them back to Beijing to honor their parents, most of the rest were kept here, so the restaurant wanted to use the gimmick of beef and mutton to make a fortune by hosting a beef and mutton banquet. "

After all, everyone knows that beef is too expensive and hard to buy.

Therefore, if Xianju Pavilion holds a beef and mutton banquet at this time, one can imagine how many wealthy people and gourmets it will attract to come and feast on their food. By then, wouldn't it be a lot of silver flowing into their pockets?

After Shopkeeper Zhao told his general idea, he turned and asked, "I just wonder, Miss Leng, do you have any way to cook beef and mutton?"

"The young master said that if Miss Leng can help, in addition to the necessary compensation, he will also give you an extra 50 kilograms of beef and mutton."

Leng Yan was a little disappointed when she heard this. She had been thinking about whether she could buy more beef from Manager Zhao.

It seems that it is not possible now, but 100 kilograms of beef and mutton is also a very tempting motivation.

That is beef and mutton from the grassland, not ordinary beef and mutton.

So she nodded and agreed immediately, "Of course there is."

"real!"

Shopkeeper Zhao and his men believed what he said, but that did not stop them from being shocked. After all, beef was rare, so cooking it deliciously was not an easy task.

After these words were spoken, Chef Yang next to him looked even more excited. Hehe, I can learn another new dish today!

"Miss Leng, let's not waste time here, let's go into the kitchen first!"

Chef Yang, who is obsessed with cooking, can't wait.

"It's done!"

Leng Yan nodded in agreement and went into the kitchen with Chef Yang.

In fact, the beef and mutton on the grassland have little fishy smell. They are extremely delicious when stewed in clear soup or dipped in salt or chives.

But this was obviously not what Manager Zhao and the others wanted. After all, if it was a clear stew, Chef Yang could make it, so why ask her?

Let's give them a little shock, Leng Yan was thinking, while Chef Yang ordered people to bring various parts of beef into the kitchen.

Seeing this, Leng Yan first selected some fat and lean beef brisket and prepared to stew the beef brisket with potatoes.

This dish takes time to prepare, so you need to stew it first.

“Beef brisket stewed with potatoes.”

As soon as he heard that this dish was delicious, Chef Yang watched it intently from the side.

After Leng Yan washed the blood off the beef brisket, he explained in detail while cutting the beef brisket.

“When cutting beef, first find the grain and cut horizontally, then choose how to cut it according to each dish. The beef brisket we are making today needs to be cut into even-sized cubes.

Next, blanch the beef in cold water. After the water boils, skim off the floating foam with a spoon, continue to stew for a while, and then take it out.

Leng Yan put the beef into warm water to wash off the blood foam stuck on the beef.

Leng Yan spoke and demonstrated at the same time, and Chef Yang watched attentively beside him.

Then heat up another pan with oil, add onion, ginger, star anise and peppercorns, and stir-fry until fragrant. Then add a spoonful of bean paste and stir-fry over low heat until the bean paste turns red.

You can add the blanched beef, stir-fry until the beef is evenly colored, then add hot water (the water should cover the beef), then add soy sauce, cooking wine, and pepper powder, cover the pot and simmer over medium-low heat.

After about two quarters of an hour, pour in the diced potatoes and salt for seasoning, cover the pot and continue to simmer for another quarter of an hour, and a pot of soft and tasty potato stewed beef brisket is ready.

The aroma wafting from the stewing beef brisket was enough to make one's mouth water, and Chef Yang couldn't stop giving a thumbs up.

"Miss Leng, you are amazing, this smells so good!"

"it's nothing."

Leng Yan smiled calmly, then she picked up her knife and cut the beef tenderloin into thin strips, added oil, salt, scallion, ginger, water, starch, egg white, mixed well, and marinated for a cup of tea.

While the peppers were being pickled, Leng Yan washed and shredded a few green peppers, preparing to make some green pepper beef tenderloin.

Then she heated up another pan, slid in the marinated beef fillet, and started cooking with the hot oil. The aroma of beef instantly emanated, and after it had slightly changed color, it was served on a plate.

Then Leng Yan cleaned the pot and poured oil back into it, added garlic and sautéed it, then added the previously chopped green pepper and stir-fried until cooked, then added the fried beef fillet.

Finally, add appropriate amount of seasoning, add salt, soy sauce and pepper and stir-fry evenly, and the delicious green pepper beef fillet is ready to be served.

After all the beef dishes came out of the pot, Shopkeeper Zhao and Chef Yang were so greedy that they started walking around the stove with chopsticks in hand.

"Mm, this beef brisket is really delicious, and the potatoes are stewed until they are soft and tender. I can eat three bowls of rice with it!"

"Yes, yes, yes. And this beef tenderloin, Miss Leng, how did you make it so tender, juicy, and tasty? It's absolutely amazing!"

The two of them ate and praised the food, while Leng Yan skillfully prepared beef stewed with radish according to the solar terms, as well as toothpick beef, stir-fried beef, braised beef ribs, ginger beef, boiled beef, beef with coriander, braised lamb, fried lamb with cumin, etc., all of which came out of the pot in a fragrant manner.

Shopkeeper Zhao and his companion were completely stunned, and they kept praising the food while eating.

"Smells good, smells good, smells really good, it smells really good!"

After Leng Yan had prepared all the dishes, he couldn't help but pick up his chopsticks and start eating the beef.

After being busy for so long, she was hungry. Finally, she had a bowl of white rice and ate it directly with the stir-fried beef, potatoes and beef brisket. She finished two large bowls of white rice and felt very satisfied.

The shopkeeper Zhao and the other man standing next to them were burping from eating so much with their round bellies.

"Miss Leng, it's done, it's done. If these dishes are launched in our Xianju Pavilion, they will definitely be very popular. I'm afraid the door will be trampled by customers!"

"Yeah yeah!"

Chef Yang also said, "Miss Leng, you have many more surprises that we don't know about. I admire your cooking skills so much!"

"Easy to say, easy to say!"

Faced with continuous compliments, Leng Yan did not get carried away and directly asked what he wanted most:

"Manager Zhao, I have taught Chef Yang all the details about this dish. Do you want me to write down the recipe? Then, the young master promised me the 100 kilograms of beef and mutton..."
