I married a playboy at the beginning, and I changed my fate by eating delicious food
Chapter 10 Braised Pork and Potatoes
When Lou Yuexin was preparing to cook in the afternoon, Xu Si volunteered.
It just so happened that Lou Yuexin didn’t know how to use the newly bought seasonings, and she was afraid that the meat would not taste good and would be wasted if she cooked it herself. The most important thing was that Asi’s cooking was so delicious.
Compared with the food cooked by Ah Si, the food she made seemed like pig food. She even ate the food she cooked at noon without any flavor.
"Okay, then I'll help you."
See, this is why Xu Si is willing to do more. He won't think that just because he took the initiative to take it, the other party will be lazy and do nothing.
Coarse rice has a rough taste and a dense texture. It takes a long time to cook and because it is not processed, you can occasionally taste some small pieces of sand in it.
Xu Si planned to use coarse rice only to cook porridge in the future and eat all refined rice today.
Wash the rice, put it in a casserole, add water to the amount of rice, cover with lid and simmer. Ask Qinghuan to keep an eye on it and stir it occasionally to prevent the pot from getting stuck.
Chop the shepherd's purse washed by Lou Xinyue into small pieces, blanch it in boiling water for a few minutes, take it out, drain it, add some green onions, pour hot oil on it, the flavor of the green onions will come out, add salt, pepper powder, soy sauce and vinegar, mix it, and the cold dish is ready.
Lou Yuexin watched carefully from the side, listening to Xu Si explain the functions of the seasonings and taking notes carefully, so that she could improve her cooking skills.
Wash and dry the pork belly, cut it into even-sized pieces, add a little oil, and fry it over low heat to fry out the excess fat so that it won't be greasy to eat.
Xu Si put the fried oil into another bottle and kept it away. After it cooled down, it became lard. When adding some of it when making noodles, it smelled delicious.
Add some oil and sugar, stir slowly over low heat, and when large, dense bubbles appear, add the meat.
"Thorn."
The meat is quickly coated with caramel color and has a bright color. Add the spices and stir-fry until fragrant. Add soy sauce and stir-fry. Finally, add boiling water and let it cook.
"Why not add cold water?" Lou Yuexin was a little confused.
"If you add cold water, the meat will shrink and become firm, not soft and mushy."
She nodded, not quite understanding, but kept it in mind.
Now, cooking can come to an end.
They didn't mind the heat and stayed in the kitchen watching the white steam rising from the pot.
The air was filled with the aroma of spices and meat. Qi Ning leaned on Lou Yuexin, staring at the pot with his eyes, saliva flooding his mouth.
Half an hour later, the rice was ready. Xu Si added salt and pepper powder to the pot at the same time.
The moment the lid was opened, the aroma rushed into his nose. After going through these processes, the meat looked a lot less than before. Xu Si suddenly felt that the meat might not be enough.
Turning around and seeing the potatoes piled on the ground next to her, she picked out a few big ones, peeled and cut them and set them aside.
"Mom, why are you here?" Qi Ning ran over like a little firecracker and hugged Su Jinyue's legs.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were on her, she felt a little embarrassed and said, "I really can't sit still any longer."
Lou Yuexin understood her feelings and made some room for her, so that the kitchen team was complete.
"Hey, make way. Why are you blocking my door?" Shen Anyi looked at the people surrounding his yard with a wary look on his face.
Shen Jingchuan was also a little nervous. Could it be that the prince and his men were unwilling to let their family go?
Those people came to their senses when they heard someone shouting, "We are all nearby neighbors, we don't mean any harm, it's just that you made something, it smells so good, we couldn't stand the smell and came to take a look."
Everyone nodded. At first there were only a few people, but later almost everyone in the area gathered together.
Shen Yanchen jumped out from behind his eldest brother. He happened to be wandering around the dock today, so he came back with his family.
"Stop looking. There's no place for you to watch anymore. Go home." He waved his hand and drove the crowd away.
Shen Anyi didn't expect his son to say such rude words. He couldn't stop him in time and couldn't help covering his face.
Achen has this mouth, he is lucky not to have been beaten to death over the years.
"I'm sorry everyone, my son has low emotional intelligence and can't speak." He bowed hurriedly to apologize.
The neighbors were already very angry, but when they saw that the father had apologized sincerely, they decided not to keep arguing about it.
The crowd dispersed, and when an old woman turned around, she saw them pushing the door open. A malicious look appeared on her mean face, and a gleam of light flashed in her eyes.
Xu Si and others also heard the noise outside the door, but did not act rashly.
Su Jinyue waited until there was no more sound outside before she went to open the door.
After entering the yard and smelling the incomparable aroma, Shen Anyi and others couldn't help but sigh, no wonder it could attract so many people.
Xu Si estimated that the time was about right and put the potatoes into the pot. When everyone had finished cleaning up, the potatoes were also ready.
Each person scooped a bowl of rice. There were cold shepherd's purse and braised pork and potatoes on the table. There were not many dishes, but the portion was enough.
"You actually bought meat today?" Shen Anyi was a little surprised. There was also so much refined rice. Could it be that they couldn't survive?
"Asi, you say." Lou Yuexin looked at Xu Si, and then everyone looked at her.
"I sold my wedding dress."
Xu Si's calm words caused waves in everyone's hearts. Even Lou Yuexin and others already knew about it, they couldn't help but be shocked.
Shen Yanchen had seen her wedding dress in the closet before, but he didn't pay much attention to it. When he woke up this morning, she was gone. He didn't expect that she had sold it, and he felt a little complicated.
"Dad, stop talking and eat." Seeing Shen Anyi moving his mouth as if he wanted to say something, she immediately stopped him. She was really not used to such an atmosphere, as if she had done something important.
"Okay, okay." Shen Anyi had been in the officialdom for many years. He understood her discomfort as soon as he saw her expression and said no more.
Although they practiced martial arts, working was different from practicing martial arts. There were no skills and it all depended on strength. In addition, they did not eat enough and had long been unable to bear it. They endured it themselves because they did not want to worry their families.
Now they were eating the greasy meat with the soft potatoes in their mouths, and they were eating it with rice following Xu Si's method. The sudden sense of happiness made them want to cry.
"If the rice is not enough, add more and eat as much as you want." Xu Si called out.
At the end of the meal, Xu Si was glad that he had added potatoes. Everything was eaten up. The last bit of soup was grabbed by Shen Yanchen, who ate it up with rice.
As expected, meals taste best when they are cooked and eaten immediately. In the past, their meals were delivered to the yard by maids from the kitchen. Although they were still hot, the taste was much worse than when they were freshly cooked.
Lou Yuexin and Su Jinyue were not in a hurry to wash the dishes. They usually strictly controlled their food intake to maintain their figure.
I have made this exception several times now, and after indulging in eating, I can't help but feel a little regretful.
However, if they were given another chance to choose, they would still choose to eat well.
