Chapter 76 Braised Venison
"What's your relationship with this man?"
Du Shaojie was lucky. Liao Yongxin was enjoying himself at home, drinking wine and listening to the radio.
Without beating around the bush, Du Shaojie told Liao Yongxin about Su Dapeng's father as soon as he entered the door, and then asked Liao Yongxin if he could help.
Liao Yongxin threw a peanut into his mouth, and did not answer Du Shaojie directly. Instead, he asked an
irrelevant question. "He's my childhood friend, and we have a very close relationship. Since I went to the farm, he has been responsible for fetching water for my family. Master Liao, if you know someone who can help, can you go and talk to him? Please!"
Du Shaojie introduced the relationship between him and Su Dapeng, and then smiled and filled Liao Yongxin's glass with wine. His attitude of asking for help was very proper.
Liao Yongxin looked at him with amusement: "You are also a flexible person. To be honest, I know someone who can help. But that person doesn't like to meddle in other people's business, unless..."
"Unless what?"
Liao Yongxin stopped talking after he got to the point. Du Shaojie asked quickly.
"Haha, look at you, you are so anxious! I won't tease you anymore. Let me tell you, the big boss loves food. Unless you can impress his stomach, no one's face will be good."
Liao Yongxin said that Director Luo looked easy-going, but he was very picky about people and things in his bones.
But the other party also had a flaw, that is, he loved to eat. Liao Yongxin was favored by the other party because he cooked a few dishes for him by chance.
"Your luck has always been good. Director Luo sent me a message to ask me to help cook a table at his house tomorrow night. He wants to invite a few old friends to dinner. You can go and help me."
Liao Yongxin really didn't want to get involved in this matter at first, after all, there was a layer of separation.
But he heard that Su Dapeng was a loyal boy who had been helping Du Shaojie take care of his family for such a long time. He couldn't help but think of his relatives far away in his hometown, and finally softened his heart and agreed to help.
The key is that the boy's father is unlucky enough, and if he finds the right person, he may be treated leniently.
"Is it appropriate for me to go? After all, he is not an ordinary person."
Du Shaojie hesitated, mainly because he was afraid of causing inconvenience to Liao Yongxin.
"Just go when I ask you to go, why are you nagging? Remember, come early tomorrow afternoon to wait for me and go with me, otherwise you can't even get through the gate."
Liao Yongxin has this temper. After finishing the business, he sent Du Shaojie away.
Afterwards, he continued to listen to the "Red Lantern" excerpt played on the radio, shaking his head and feeling uncomfortable.
The next day.
According to the agreed time, Du Shaojie arrived at the family compound in advance.
After waiting for less than ten minutes, he saw Liao Yongxin walking over slowly.
"What are you carrying? Did you suddenly remember to honor me?"
After entering the house, Liao Yongxin pointed to the bag in Du Shaojie's hand.
"Master Liao, you guessed right. I got some venison. I'll give you some to try."
The bag contained 5 kilograms of venison. Du Shaojie smiled and handed it to Liao Yongxin.
Liao Yongxin was not polite. He took the bag and opened it immediately to check. He found that the venison was still very fresh.
At present, venison is not very common. Although it is not a valuable item, it makes Liao Yongxin's eyes light up. Today, I have to ask for help from others. Ordinary things are not rare. It's good to bring this thing to the door.
"You carry it first, I'll change clothes and we'll go."
Liao Yongxin immediately went home to change clothes, and then he and Du Shaojie carried a bag of venison and rode to the No. 1 compound a few kilometers away.
The compound has strict access control. After going through a complicated procedure, the two came to Director Luo's house.
This is a two-story building, very spacious, with 30 or 40 square meters of kitchen alone.
The person who received the two was a serious-looking woman in her thirties, with a pretty face and smart and capable manner.
"Master Liao, I have to trouble you again today! The director's old friend loves your dishes. Here is the menu, take a look. The ingredients are ready, tell me if you need anything. Who is this?"
The woman said politely, then turned to look at Du Shaojie, with a look of scrutiny in her eyes.
"Xiao Du is my half-apprentice, one of my own. Director Cai, although he is young, he is a good cook, except for his lack of experience. I dare not say that some of his dishes are better than his."
Liao Yongxin laughed and casually introduced Du Shaojie to the other party.
Director Cai's expression eased. He could not trust others, but he trusted Lao Liao. With his endorsement, he could not go wrong.
"Master Du, you have worked hard."
"Not hard, not hard."
After a symbolic greeting, Director Cai was ready to leave.
At this time, Liao Yongxin pointed to the bag on the side and said, "Director Cai, I got some fresh venison. Ask Director Luo if he wants to try it?"
"Oh? Then I'll go ask."
Director Cai gave Liao Yongxin face and walked out with the bag.
She first asked someone to identify the ingredients and confirmed that there was no problem with the ingredients before reporting the matter to the director.
"Lao Liao is thoughtful, so let's add a plate of venison and cancel the original dish. It's up to him to decide how to cook it."
Director Luo and Liao Yongxin have known each other for more than ten years. They know each other well and immediately said that they would add another dish for dinner.
Director Cai returned to the kitchen and truthfully relayed Director Luo's original words.
Then, Liao Yongxin and Du Shaojie started to work.
There were not many dishes in the evening, including [Stir-fried kidney and liver], [Dry-fried fish], [Kung Pao chicken], [Fuqi lung slices], [Celery fried lily], and [Braised venison]. There were also two cold dishes, [Cold jellyfish shreds] and [Garlic cucumber].
The soup was [West Lake beef soup], a total of eight dishes and one soup.
This was not quite what Du Shaojie had imagined, there were no precious ingredients, but most of them were common Sichuan dishes.
"Xiao Du, you are good at making braised dishes, are you sure about making this [Braised venison]?"
Liao Yongxin didn't dare to let Du Shaojie try the rest of the dishes, not because he didn't trust him, but because Director Luo and others were used to the taste of the Sichuan dishes he made, and he was afraid that they would be unhappy if he changed people rashly.
There was no such problem with [Braised venison], and he had never made it before.
"Master Liao, venison has very little fat content. If it is not cooked well, it will become hard and woody. I plan to marinate it first, then fry it lightly with oil, and then braise it with the chicken broth. Use magnolia slices as a side dish, and garnish it with coriander when it is served."
Du Shaojie sorted out his thoughts and said his idea.
Liao Yongxin is an expert. He thought it was feasible as soon as he heard it, so he nodded happily.
Du Shaojie made this dish at home at noon. The reward of venison was 9 kilograms. He brought 5 kilograms of venison to Liao Yongxin. Of the remaining 4 kilograms, he cut 2 kilograms and braised a large pot. Wang Yuxiu, Xiaomei and Xiaoya praised it after eating it.
Braised dishes are similar, and some adjustments will be made according to the different ingredients.
In order to make this dish well, Du Shaojie also specially consulted the [Chef Training Video Materials] in the morning, and the key points of making venison were already clear in his mind.
When processing the venison, Du Shaojie quickly glanced at the results of the lunch, which added to the confidence of making this [Braised Venison].
