Chapter 21 The dish is finally ready!
When it was almost time to get off work, Du Shaojie heard from others that Dai Jianguo, the nephew of Dai Tong, was in trouble. It was said that he was taken into the police station by the police early this morning and has not come out yet.
No one knows what happened specifically.
Du Shaojie did have a taste of it. Dai Jianguo was probably in the police station because of the three gangsters.
Human life is at stake, and this case is a serious one.
If Dai Jianguo wants to get himself out of trouble, he must honestly explain the fact that he "hired someone to hurt someone.
" "You deserve it! You'd better stay in there and don't come out."
Du Shaojie is not a generous person. He has always been a person who returns the favor.
The uncle and nephew of the Dai family always have a problem with him. If he finds an opportunity, he will definitely beat them to death. So when he was in the police station last night, he specifically mentioned Dai Jianguo. Regardless of whether there is evidence or not, the police will conduct an investigation.
After finishing his work in the evening, Du Shaojie packed six white flour steamed buns, did not order any vegetables, and rode back home.
At this time, Wang Yuxiu was washing cabbage. She was surprised to see her son coming back early: "Xiaojie, didn't you eat at work?"
"No, I brought some steamed buns back. I will make you a dish of Kung Pao Chicken later."
Du Shaojie failed to make "Kung Pao Chicken" twice. After repeated learning, he felt that he should be able to make some progress.
Just when he had the right ingredients on hand, how could he resist?
Wang Yuxiu quickly washed the cabbage and then vacated the kitchen.
Du Shaojie brought half of the chicken legs over and started to process them after thawing. Remove the chicken bones, cut the chicken legs into small pieces, and then start marinating.
Add a little salt to adjust the base flavor, then add a little soy sauce, cooking wine, and pepper powder to mix evenly, add starch, and then pour some oil and set aside.
Next, prepare the peanuts. Peel the peanuts and fry them until they are slightly yellow and crispy, then serve them for later use.
Prepare the small ingredients: dried chili peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, onions, ginger and garlic. Put the dried chili peppers and Sichuan peppercorns aside. Put the onions, ginger and garlic in a bowl, add soy sauce, cooking wine, a little vinegar, salt, MSG, sugar, and finally add starch to make a bowl of thick sauce.
Next, start heating the pan and then pour in an appropriate amount of rapeseed oil. When the oil temperature rises, first add the Sichuan peppercorns to
fry until fragrant and then add the dried chili peppers to fry the aroma of the chili peppers. Then pour in the marinated diced chicken and quickly stir-fry until cooked, add peanuts, and stir-fry a few more times.
Finally, add the prepared sauce several times, thicken the sauce over high heat, add a little vinegar, drizzle with bright oil, and
then serve. Du Shaojie looked at the work in front of him and felt very satisfied. The whole dish has a strong aroma and bright red color, which is very appetizing at first glance.
The Kung Pao Chicken he fried today is slightly different from the previous two times. In terms of dealing with the chicken cubes, the teaching materials provide two methods. The previous two times he first fried the chicken cubes with oil and then fried them.
This time he followed the traditional method, frying the diced chicken without oil.
There is no difference between the two techniques, the key is to see the color and taste of the finished dish.
"Xiaomei, bring the dishes over and prepare to eat."
He then fried a plate of pickled cabbage, heated up the two dishes left over from lunch, and turned to the main room.
Today's Kung Pao Chicken was fried very successfully. Not only Xiaomei and Xiaoya liked it, but even Wang Yuxiu took a few more chopsticks.
The characteristics of this dish are spicy and fresh, especially with rice.
"Delicious, it's really delicious."
"Brother, I want to eat your fried Kung Pao Chicken in the future."
Du Shaojie didn't eat much, but his two sisters were very satisfied.
A large plate of Kung Pao Chicken was eaten up, and not even a peanut was left.
"Xiaojie, your cooking skills are far better than yours now. Work hard and become a chef in the future."
Wang Yuxiu felt that life finally had hope. With her son's skills, he would be able to stand on his own after a few more years of training.
When the two girls grow up, I will find a way to find a marriage for my son, and then my wish will be fulfilled.
"Mom, don't worry."
Du Shaojie grinned, feeling really happy.
It wasn't long before Wang Yuxiu, Xiaomei and Xiaoya's faces looked less gloomy, especially Xiaoya, who had noticeably grown some flesh on her face.
At this moment, he was satisfied, and a sense of pride arose spontaneously.
Of course, today's gains were more than that. The [Kung Pao Chicken] he made in the evening finally made substantial progress.
Then he and Xiaomei cleaned up the house and the kitchen, and after returning to their bedroom, they opened the light curtain.
[Bound Chef: Du Shaojie]
[Level: Apprentice (Third Year)]
[Current Work: Kung Pao Chicken]
[Overall Rating: Low]
[Bonus: How to Cook Boiled Chicken]
[Reward: Beef (2 kg)]
[Special Reward: None]
Perhaps it was because of his day and night thoughts, or perhaps it was a sudden inspiration, the [Kung Pao Chicken] that Du Shaojie made in the evening not only entered the mainstream, but also directly skipped the "low-low" level and received a "low" overall rating.
The accompanying teaching materials were another new dish [Boiled Chicken], which made him both happy and worried.
I was happy that I could learn one more thing, but I was worried about where to find opportunities to practice. Except for the Chinese New Year, ordinary people rarely eat chicken, and the canteen has never cooked this dish.
It can be said that it was painful and happy.
Just then, Xiaomei knocked on the door and shouted, "Brother, Sister Meiqin is looking for you."
Du Shaojie quickly opened the door and walked out, and then saw Liang Meiqin standing behind Xiaomei.
"Shaojie, I didn't disturb you, did I? Where are Auntie and Xiaoya? Why don't I see them?"
Liang Meiqin is also very beautiful. She is slightly inferior to Qi Yan in appearance, but she has her own merits in temperament.
She is not as carefree as Qi Yan. She is more gentle and polite.
"My mother took Xiaoya to the toilet. Sister Meiqin, please sit down first. I'll pour you some water."
Xiaomei took over the conversation, pulled Liang Meiqin to sit down in the main room, and then went to pour her a cup of hot water.
Du Shaojie nodded secretly. His elder sister was both sensible and capable. It really proved the saying that children from poor families grow up early.
"Shaojie, I came here specially to thank you. The uncles and aunts who came to my house today all liked the braised beef you made very much. If you were not on duty at the unit today, they would have asked me to invite you over for a few drinks."
Liang Meiqin smiled slightly and described the scene of those rough men eating braised beef vividly.
Moreover, her joining the army was basically settled, and she would become a glorious female soldier this fall.
Therefore, she was particularly happy today and wanted to find someone to share her joy. She went to find Qi Yan first, but the other family went to visit relatives and was turned away.
It happened that she also wanted to thank Du Shaojie in person, so she ran over subconsciously.
"Meiqin, we are friends, so there is no need to say polite words."
Du Shaojie felt that Liang Meiqin's state today was not quite right, but he didn't ask too much.
"Yeah, we are good friends. By the way, Shaojie, I will leave home to join the army in the second half of the year. I won't be able to play with Yan Zi, Da Peng and you often. It makes me sad to think about it."
Liang Meiqin took the initiative to bring up the topic, but also expressed her melancholy mood of not wanting to part with her friends.
