Then Zhou Kai and Liu Jie just need to pick up the pig intestines and cut them into pieces.
By the time they finished all this, it was exactly half past three.
It's time to prepare dinner.
The first dish to be made is braised pork.
Jiang Ning picked up a few large pieces of pork belly, which he specifically told Liu Jie and Zhou Kai not to cut into lumps, and put them into the pot with cold water.
I also threw a small amount of ginger slices and green onions into the pot, and added a little cooking wine to remove the fishy smell.
After the water boils, take out the pork belly, then rinse it repeatedly with cold water. After washing it clean, cut it into small pieces.
Then heat the pan with cold oil, add a few pieces of rock sugar and stir-fry the sugar color over low heat.
After the sugar color was fried, Jiang Ning put the pork belly cut into small pieces into the pot and stir-fried it.
After the pork belly is completely coated with caramel color, add appropriate amount of cooking wine, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, and oyster sauce and stir-fry evenly. Then add boiling water to soak the pork belly and add chopped potatoes, then add onions, ginger, garlic, star anise and cinnamon, and simmer over low heat for half an hour.
The next step is to cook the pig intestines that Jiang Ning had spent almost half an hour washing - stir-frying the pig intestines.
First prepare the sauce for the braised pork intestines in advance. Jiang Ning took out a large bowl and added appropriate amounts of light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, oyster sauce, salt, and chicken essence in it, and mixed it according to the ratio of 2:1:1:0.5:0.5. Finally, add appropriate amount of white pepper powder and the sauce is ready.
Heat oil in a pan. When the oil temperature rises, add onion, ginger, garlic and dried chilies and stir-fry until fragrant. Then add the pig intestines and stir-fry. After stir-frying for a while, add an appropriate amount of cooking wine, then add the sauce prepared by Jiang Ning before and continue to stir-fry.
Finally, pour in the green and red peppers and onions and stir-fry evenly. Cover the pot and simmer for about ten minutes. The braised pork intestines are ready.
Finally, stir-fry some mung bean sprouts and Chinese cabbage and you’re done.
The winter melon soup has been made a long time ago and the lid has been removed to let it cool.
After these dishes were cooked, Jiang Ning opened the lid of the pot containing braised pork and potatoes. The overbearing aroma of meat mixed with the fragrance of potatoes instantly caught everyone's nose.
"This smells so good. I feel like I can eat four bowls of rice just with this bowl of dish." Liu Jie said to Zhou Kai who was cleaning up the kitchen utensils.
Zhou Kai replied, "It smells really good. My mouth is already watering just by smelling it. I really want to eat it. It seems that Jiang Ning has some real skills."
He continued, "However, I still look forward to the braised pig intestines she makes. Hey, have you noticed that after she treats the pig intestines like that, I really don't smell that foul smell when I cut them."
Liu Jie smiled again and said, "Yes, it really doesn't have that flavor anymore, but I'm actually looking forward to the dishes she makes. I must order more rice and vegetables tonight and eat more."
Zhou Kai smiled, looked up at the clock on the wall and said, "Okay, let's go help quickly and bring the dishes to the window. They'll be off work in ten minutes."
Just as they brought all the dishes to the window and hadn't even had time to catch their breath, they saw Secretary Chen coming over with two lunch boxes.
OK! I was the first person in the cafeteria at noon and I’m still the first person at night.
"Secretary Chen, you're here so early again today." Jiang Ning greeted him.
"Well, after the meeting this afternoon, I feel a little hungry, so I came to the cafeteria to replenish my energy."
He is embarrassed to say that he has been waiting for the meal you cooked all afternoon and has no concentration on work.
That means you arrive at the cafeteria five minutes early.
One look at the dishes and the familiar aroma and he knew he had made the right decision to come early.
"This smells delicious, Jiang Ning. You cooked the dishes tonight, right? They look delicious." Secretary Chen said to Jiang Ning in the cafeteria while standing at the cafeteria window.
He added, "I want all three dishes, but you don't have to give me the pig intestines. Every time I eat the pig intestines in the cafeteria, I always feel that they have a bad smell. I have eaten them many times but still can't get used to them. This braised pork with potatoes looks delicious. Give me some more."
Secretary Chen handed his lunch box to Liu Jie, and handed Secretary Fang's lunch box to Zhou Chao, and couldn't help but give them instructions.
"Secretary Chen, today's pig intestines are delicious, without that bad smell. Would you like to try it?" Liu Jie said as he picked up a piece of pig intestines for Secretary Chen and put it in his lunch box, indicating that he should taste it.
Secretary Chen smelled it carefully and found that today's pig intestines did not seem to have any bad smell, so he picked up the pig intestines in the lunch box and put them into his mouth.
Hey, it's quite delicious.
After tasting it, Secretary Chen said, "Give me some pig intestines."
It's five o'clock and time to get off work.
There were gradually more and more people in the cafeteria.
Everyone rushed to the cafeteria to try the dinner made by the new female chef to see what it tasted like.
I didn't get to eat the food she cooked for lunch, but I should be able to eat it in the evening.
Liu Jie and Zhou Kai did not rest for a moment while serving food in the evening.
The main thing is that people come to the window to get food in waves, not one after another like before.
The two of them were busy for more than half an hour and finally finished. They were able to sit down and drink some water to relax.
The inside of the cafeteria had almost been cleaned up by other people.
"Hello, comrade. Do you have any food left?" A man in a military coat walked towards Jiang Ning and the others.
"Sorry, today's meals have been prepared. Comrade, please come early after get off work. There is no more food at this time. We have almost finished cleaning up the cafeteria." Sun Chao said on the side.
"Is it so early today? I used to come here at this time, why are they gone so soon today? Isn't it only half past five?" The man walked closer.
Jiang Ning then realized that it was the old man from the guard room.
"Old Zheng, you are late today. Xiao Jiang cooked the dishes tonight and everyone wanted to try them. They have already been eaten up and there is nothing left in the cafeteria. You won't have a good meal today." After Master Wang said this, he waved his lunch box in front of him.
So the old man at the door is named Zheng! Jiang Ning thought.
"Oh, then I missed it. Didn't you say you would be doing it today? Why did you suddenly change people in the evening?" Uncle Zheng said to Master Wang.
Liu Jie laughed and said, "Sir, your gossip is not true!"
"Uncle, give me your lunch box and I will give you my meal." Jiang Ning said to Uncle Zheng who was holding an empty lunch box.
Uncle Zheng looked towards Jiang Ning and said, "Give me your lunch box. What are you going to eat tonight?"
"I eat at home with my brother and sister." Jiang Ning said with a smile.
"How can that be?" Uncle Zheng rejected her request.
"It's okay, uncle. Today is my first day at work, and my brother said he'd celebrate for me! You can have some."
After Jiang Ning finished speaking, he handed his lunch box to Uncle Zheng.
"Hearing what you said, I won't be polite." Uncle Zheng said with a smile.
