Coming to the StarCraft to Be a Kindergarten Teacher: Perfect Transformation
Chapter 18 Wei'er's Shock
Wei'er walked cautiously into the kitchen. When she saw the chicken feet on the stove, her eyes were filled with shock and confusion. She pointed at them and asked with a trembling voice, "Sui Sui, are these... are these the feet of the Cuckoo Beast? Are they really edible?"
I turned around and replied with a smile: "Of course you can eat it, and it tastes very good! You'll know when you try it later." As I said that, I skillfully picked up an egg, gently cracked the eggshell, poured the egg liquid into the bowl, and then quickly stirred it evenly.
Next, I poured some oil into the pan. When the oil heated up, I heard a "sizzle" sound and the egg liquid quickly spread in the pan, emitting a unique aroma. I kept frying the eggs until they turned golden and cooked through, then set them aside.
I then used the remaining oil in the pan to continue sautéing the tomatoes, allowing them to soften and develop a crunchy texture. Once the tomatoes were juicy, I added the eggs back into the pan, allowing them to blend in with the tomato juice. Finally, I sprinkled a little salt and gently tossed everything together. A delicious tomato and egg scrambled egg dish was ready.
I placed the dish on a plate, brought it to the table, and said to Wei'er, "Come and try it!" With a little hesitation, Wei'er picked up an egg covered in tomato broth and put it in her mouth. Instantly, her expression changed to surprise and delight, and she nodded repeatedly, praising it, "Mm, delicious! Really delicious!" Seeing Wei'er's satisfied smile, I felt incredibly happy too.
After the scrambled eggs with tomatoes were served, I quickly cleaned the pot. Then, I picked up a fresh potato and prepared to shred it. As I was concentrating on shredding the potato, Wei'er beside me exclaimed, "Sui Sui, how did you do that? You can actually cut this potato into such fine shreds! Is your hand okay? Are you okay?"
Seeing Wei'er showing that shocked look again, I couldn't help but smile and said softly: "Don't worry, my hand is fine. To cut the potatoes into even and thin strips, you just need to practice more and you can master the skills." After hearing this, Wei'er exclaimed with admiration on her face: "You are so amazing! By the way, isn't this just potato? Why do you call it potato?" I explained with a smile: "Haha, maybe it's because we are used to calling potato as potato in our hometown. The name may be slightly different in each place, but it refers to the same thing." After listening, Wei'er nodded to show that she understood.
While I was talking to Wei'er, I finished shredding the potatoes. The knife skills were simply amazing! Each potato shred was evenly thick and neatly arranged, like a work of art. Then, I skillfully turned on the faucet, and clear water poured down like a waterfall, gently rinsing the shredded potatoes. At this moment, Wei'er came over curiously, looked at the shredded potatoes in my hand, and asked in confusion: "Sui Sui, isn't this potato very clean? Why do you need to wash it after cutting it?"
I explained with a smile: "Actually, potatoes contain a lot of starch. If you don't wash off the starch, the fried potato shreds will become sticky and the taste will not be good. Rinsing with water can remove excess starch, so the fried potato shreds will be crispy and refreshing! I personally prefer this crispy taste." After listening to my explanation, Wei'er nodded in sudden enlightenment and said, "So that's how it is, you are so awesome! I can't cook, and after listening to what you said, I feel that cooking is really a magical thing."
I poured oil into the wok, added chili peppers, and sautéed until fragrant. Then I added the shredded potatoes and expertly began to stir-fry. Wei stood by, watching me quietly. Soon, the shredded potatoes were golden and crispy, their aroma filling the air. I sprinkled in some salt and seasonings, stir-fried a few more times, then turned off the heat and plated them.
"Wow, that looks great!" Wei said excitedly.
I smiled and brought the fried potato shreds to the table. "Hurry up and try it!"
Wei'er eagerly picked up a shredded potato and put it in her mouth, chewing it carefully. "Hmm... Really crispy! And it tastes great too!" Her face was filled with a satisfied smile. Watching Wei'er eat with such relish, I felt a sense of accomplishment.
Now all that's left is the vegetable soup! For this soup, I've decided to cook it the unique Yunnan style. First, pour a suitable amount of water into the pot and wait for it to come to a boil. When the water begins to boil, carefully add the fresh and tender vegetables. Watching the vegetables tumble in the boiling water, they seem to cheer and leap in anticipation of becoming a delicious dish. Let the vegetables boil in the pot to their heart's content. After about two minutes, a dish of boiled cabbage with a strong Yunnan flavor is ready! This dish is simple yet not simplistic, preserving the original flavor of the vegetables. It is refreshing and nutritious. Every bite seems to carry the scent of the Yunnan land, leaving you with an unforgettable aftertaste.
All the dishes were ready and on the table. Since Wei'er had bought bread earlier and there was no rice at home, bread would be the main course for this meal. Looking at the table full of delicious food, a strong sense of satisfaction welled up in my heart. I tapped my laptop to capture the entire table. As I was taking pictures, Wei'er, not to be outdone, pulled out her own laptop and began taking photos and videos of the dishes on the table. When she noticed me staring at her, she suddenly became a little shy and whispered, "Sui Sui, these dishes you made are so delicious! I want to take pictures of them and post them on my social media, is that okay?" This scene reminded me of our time on Blue Star, when we would immediately take photos of delicious food and share them on WeChat Moments or Douyin platforms. I smiled and replied, "Of course! But you have to eat quickly after taking the photos, otherwise the Cuckoo Beast will lose its best taste if it gets cold." Upon hearing this, Wei'er noticeably sped up her video recording.
"Wow! The cuckoo's eggs and red fruits fried together are so delicious, it's amazing! And this plate of shredded potatoes, the texture is so crispy that you can't stop eating! However, if you want to say what is the most memorable and praiseworthy, it must be the cuckoo's feet! The unique aroma is so tempting that you can't stop eating it! Finally, paired with a bowl of refreshing and greasy vegetable soup, it perfectly retains the original fragrance of the vegetables. It's a perfect match!" After a lot of wolfing down, the food on the table had been eaten up, without even a trace of residue left. Wei'er leaned back in her chair with satisfaction and burped loudly. When she noticed that I was looking at her, she blushed and whispered, "Sui Sui, your cooking skills are really superb. The dishes you make are even better than those high-end restaurants in our imperial capital star!" "Haha, if you think it's delicious, you are welcome to come again next time!"
