Chapter 27: Stir-fried rapeseed heart and water spinach
[Ahhhhh, host, what's wrong with this green vegetable? Why does it stink so bad?! ! ! !]
【Ahhhhhhhh, it stinks! 】
[Does it smell bad? Why do I think it smells good?]
Tu Rongrong: “…”
"This is coriander." Tu Rongrong didn't dare to eat coriander directly. She just used it for flavor or decoration. She couldn't bear to put coriander directly into her mouth.
"Coriander is also a condiment. People who like it find it fragrant, while those who don't think it smells bad. Those who don't like it can choose not to eat it. All you need to do is try the chicken in the spicy diced chicken."
[Ahhh, it's so spicy, but this spicy chicken is really delicious.]
[Wow, I ate this while crying. It was so delicious. QAQ]
[It was really spicy, so spicy that it made me cry and have runny nose.]
[Wow, this is really delicious, but also really spicy.]
Tu Rongrong looked at the howling in the barrage with a smile. The spicy diced chicken she made was not the most authentic one. Because she was not from Sichuan and Chongqing, the spicy diced chicken she made was not really that spicy.
However, interstellar people did not eat delicious food or nutritional supplements before, and they had never eaten chili peppers. In addition, over the past few thousand years, the genes that could accept spicy food have slowly disappeared, so when they first ate the spicy chicken cubes made with Tu Rongrong, they really felt it was very spicy.
Tu Rongrong didn't care. She watched the audience eating spicy diced chicken and giving her gifts, and then she prepared to make the next dish.
Tu Rongrong had already made spicy diced chicken from both pheasants, but she had also removed some of the chicken bones beforehand, so she planned to stew a simple chicken bone and chicken offal soup.
After cutting the chicken offal into small pieces, stir-fry with ginger, then add salt and cooking wine and stir-fry, then add water and chicken bones and simmer slowly.
"I made spicy diced chicken, and now you've prepared a soup. Do you need to prepare anything else?" Tu Che asked curiously after watching Tu Rongrong stew the soup.
"No, I'll just stir-fry some vegetables later." Tu Rongrong thought for a while and said, her sister is only a two-year-old kid, so it's better to prepare some light dishes, simple stir-fried vegetables will be enough, and it can also relieve greasiness.
"Uncle Che, please help me pick some rapeseed hearts and water spinach." Tu Rongrong said to Tu Che. She had planted a lot of vegetables in the open space near the spaceship where they lived. She even planted the water spinach beside the stream so that it would grow particularly well and lushly.
Tu Che thought about it. When Tu Rongrong was planting vegetables before, she had introduced the names of the vegetables to Tu Che, so Tu Che knew them all. So he listened to Tu Rongrong and went to the stream to pick about a bunch of water spinach.
As for the rapeseed hearts, they were planted in two plots in a nearby vacant lot, so Tu Che picked about a bunch of them. Tu Che's appetite was flexible; after all, he was a robot and could digest as much as he wanted, even if he didn't eat at all, so he didn't pick a lot of vegetables.
While Tu Rongrong was making the soup, Tu Che picked some water spinach and rapeseed hearts. Tu Rongrong and Tu Che picked the vegetables together. The water spinach came out long, so they had to cut it into small pieces. The rapeseed hearts didn't need much processing because they were already very tender and could be stir-fried after washing.
Tu Rongrong washed the rapeseed heart in water, and after washing it, she put it in a small basket to drain the water. The soup in the pot was also simmering. This chicken offal and chicken bone soup did not need to be simmered for a long time. After Tu Rongrong saw that the soup was boiled, she continued to simmer for a while and then it was ready to be served.
Tu Rongrong took out the soup pot and replaced it with a wok.
After the moisture in the wok is dried up, Tu Rongrong pours a little of the oil used to fry the chicken into it, then crushes the garlic cloves and puts them in to stir-fry.
"What I'm going to make now is stir-fried rapeseed hearts. Since I don't have oyster sauce now, I didn't make rapeseed hearts with oyster sauce but stir-fried rapeseed hearts. Rapeseed hearts are very delicious, even if they are simply stir-fried." Tu Rongrong said while sautéing minced garlic.
After the garlic aroma came out, she poured the drained rapeseed hearts into the stir-fry. Stir-frying vegetables is very simple, as long as the vegetables are cooked through, they are almost done. Tu Rongrong stir-fried them for a while and then added a little salt. She didn't add any other seasonings after that, not even MSG.
"It's not very difficult to stir-fry rapeseed hearts. The only seasoning you need is salt. Of course, oil is an indispensable ingredient for cooking. And you see, the rapeseed hearts are ready to be taken out of the pan when they are cooked through. Just continue stir-frying for two or three minutes until they are almost cooked." Tu Rongrong was satisfied when she saw that the rapeseed hearts were almost cooked.
Tu Rongrong took out a wooden plate from the side and took out the rapeseed hearts. Tu Che over there had already picked and washed the water spinach. Tu Rongrong looked back and was very satisfied.
"The stir-fried rapeseed hearts are done, now let's make the stir-fried water spinach." Tu Rongrong rinsed the wok that had just been used to stir-fry the rapeseed hearts with water and then continued, adding oil and minced garlic, and then put the water spinach in to stir-fry.
"Actually, the steps for stir-frying vegetables are pretty much the same. Even for simple dishes, the steps are pretty much the same. If you don't like the taste of garlic, you can leave out the minced garlic. Just add the oil, and when it's about 70% to 80% hot, add the vegetables and stir-fry."
"Like this, when the leaves have all wilted and their color has darkened, they're almost done. Of course, if you want crispier vegetables, they're almost ready to be served. If you want them softer, you can add a little water, just a little bit, and then stir-fry for a few more minutes before serving."
"Okay, now the stir-fried water spinach is almost ready." Tu Rongrong looked at the dish in the pot and thought it was ready, so she asked Tu Che to take out another plate to put the water spinach on and bring it to their dining table, while she washed the pot herself.
Tu Rongrong looked at the still red charcoal with a pity. She wanted to roast something, but now she was feeling a bit lazy, so she gave up.
"Don't we have coal here? Haven't you thought about using coal to make a fire and cook?" Tu Che couldn't help asking when he saw Tu Rongrong staring at the charcoal in the stove.
Tu Rongrong: “…”
"...I forgot." Tu Rongrong only remembered that she had indeed forgotten that she could use coal to make honeycomb briquettes for cooking after hearing what Tu Che said. Tu Rongrong looked up at Tu Che in surprise and said, "Uncle Che, can you help me make honeycomb briquettes?"
Tu Che shook his head helplessly and said, "Okay, let's eat first."
Seeing this, Tu Rongrong understood that Tu Che did not reject her, and nodded with a smile, "Okay, okay, let's eat."
"Yuanyuan, take out our bowls and chopsticks." Tu Rongrong looked at Tu Yuanyuan who had been sitting next to her and watching her and Tu Che busy.
"Okay." Tu Yuanyuan responded crisply, then took out the dishes from the cabinet and put them on the table. Her serious look made Tu Rongrong's heart soften.
How can my sister be so well-behaved and cute?
