Chapter 140 Lotus Root Box
The lunch was simple, baked beans in tomato sauce with homemade bread.
Well, that's a bit fancy, but the truth is she found a small loaf of bread that had been left in the bakery oven at some point.
It was dry and tasted like a tasteless cookie.
But she didn't want to waste it, so she found a good partner for it.
Served with rich baked beans in tomato sauce, the moist sauce soaked every space in the bread. A bite, the sour and salty sauce stimulated the wheat aroma of the bread. Just a few chews made Josh's appetite open. It was delicious!
The combination of the dry and dehydrated bread and the baked beans in tomato sauce is surprisingly delicious.
Record this combination so that you can make it into baked bean buns with ketchup and sell it later.
Josh just took a nap, and now that he's finished lunch, he's not sleepy. What should he do?
"Snoo~" Josh, Josh! Little bear, oh no, now the super-sized bear is here.
In order to facilitate foraging, it and Big Star basically stayed in the Glimmering Forest, and from time to time they would return home from hunting and bring some meat dishes for Josh.
I saw a huge creature running towards Qiao Xi from a distance, biting a piece of meat in its mouth. After running to Qiao Xi excitedly, Xiao Xingxing put the prey in his mouth on the ground. "Hoo~Lulu" Today, Qiao Xi got a plump and tender Maolin rabbit!
There are many intelligent beasts in the food chain of the Star-Moon Bear, but Josh never eats these intelligent low- and mid-level beasts, so every time Little Star brings delicious food to Josh, he either brings ordinary wild beasts or non-intelligent beasts.
This was the first time Josh had seen a Maolin rabbit. Little Xingxing always liked to challenge medium and large prey, and it disdained to eat such small things.
"Why did you bring me a little rabbit today?" Josh asked with a smile.
"Hulu!" It's not a little rabbit, it's so big!
Little Xingxing gestured to tell Qiao Xi that this was not an ordinary Maolin rabbit. It seemed to be a mutation or something. It scratched its head and couldn't tell clearly, but it was very big, much bigger than an ordinary Maolin rabbit.
Josh took a closer look at the piece of meat it had dropped. He originally thought it was a whole rabbit, but now he saw that it was just part of the hind leg.
Qiao Xi was shocked. Judging from the size of the legs, this Maolin rabbit must be as big as a jumping lamb. Qiao Sha thought about it and asked, "Is it as big as a jumping lamb?"
"Hulu~" Not only that, it's even louder!
Well, it was actually that big, but she didn’t think much about it. There were so many strange monsters here, so it was normal to have a super-large rabbit.
Well, how do you eat rabbit meat?
Josh picked up the piece of meat and felt that it was too soft and tender as soon as he touched it. It looked very different from the rabbit meat he had tasted before.
Rabbit meat is generally not very chewy, but the muscles are well developed. It seems that this rabbit doesn't like to exercise. The meat on its hind legs is so soft. No wonder it was caught by Xiao Xingxing.
As his peripheral vision caught sight of the lotus roots nearby, Qiao Xi had a new idea in his mind. "Xiao Xingxing, have you ever eaten lotus root cakes with meat?"
Ah? Little Star shook his head. What is that?
"Hey, then let's eat lotus root cakes with meat today!" Qiao Xi became interested and prepared to do a great job.
To put it more complicatedly, the lotus root box that we ate in our previous life was also called lotus root clip. However, in order to make it easier for them to understand, Qiao Xi still called it lotus root cake with meat.
The lotus roots brought by the beavers were very tender and there were no scars after washing them, so Josh didn't peel them. It would be nutritious after eating them anyway.
After cleaning the hind leg meat and washing off the stains and blood, Qiao Xi dug out a piece of fresh young ginger, washed it and put it in the iron basin, waiting for the big black bird passing by to help chop the meat. She was getting lazier and lazier, and she didn't want to do such troublesome work as chopping meat, and just wanted to leave it to the brown-headed vulture.
"Hulu~" Xiao Xingxing noticed the figure of Brown-headed Vulture faster than Qiao Xi and signaled to Qiao Xi early on.
"Zhuangzhuang, come down and help me!" Josh stood up and waved to the Brown-headed Vulture.
"Quack?"
"Help me chop this piece of meat and this small piece of ginger. Don't chop the meat too finely, but chop the ginger finer. That way you won't have chunks of ginger to eat." Qiao Xi gave the instructions enthusiastically.
The Brown-headed Vulture tilted its head, wondering what weird thing Josh was going to do again.
But when it saw the big stupid bear that it had watched grow up, it knew that the man and the bear always got together to study delicious food.
Following Josh's instructions, the brown-headed vulture completed the task perfectly, but it didn't like the taste of ginger, so it prepared to leave after chopping it.
"Zong-Zong, don't leave. Let's eat lotus root pancakes with meat later!"
The brown-headed vulture shook its head. It didn't like to eat these strange things! It flew away with its wings spread.
Tsk, I'll give it to you for your arrogance. Wait until I make it and it'll make you die of its fragrance. Qiao Xi complained inwardly.
However, looking at Little Star, Qiao Xi smiled again. Fortunately, she still had a friend. Little Star had already started to feel greedy and looked at her hesitantly.
Although she had eaten it before, this lotus root pancake with meat was ready and she could take it out and eat it whenever she wanted. She wanted to make it and try it even if she was full.
Mix the minced meat of the brown-headed vulture and minced ginger evenly, and add seasoning. It was the first time for Qiao Xi to eat this kind of rabbit meat, and he was not sure whether there was any peculiar smell, so he added a heavier amount. Just mix the meat filling evenly.
Cut the lotus root into thick slices, cut another cut in the middle without cutting it through, use chopsticks to stuff the mixed meat paste into the slices, and smooth them out one by one.
Then you can mix the batter. If you want the lotus root cake with meat to be delicious, the outer layer of batter is also essential.
He took a bowl of wheat flour and simply blended it to make a batter of the right concentration, neither too thin nor too thick. He put the lotus root cake in to wash it, and then coated it with batter. Qiao Xi heated the oil in a pan, and when the oil temperature was right, he put the lotus root cake in and fried it slowly over low heat.
The fire cannot be too big, otherwise the batter will be burnt, resulting in the situation that the outside is burnt but the inside is still raw. It cannot be too small, otherwise it will not be fried through after a long time. The specific temperature depends on Qiao Xi himself.
As soon as it was put into the pan, the unique aroma of fried food was stimulated. Qiao Xi waited until the lotus root cake was shaped, then gently turned it over to fry it evenly from top to bottom.
The little star next to him couldn't control his saliva any more. He half-squatted and stared blankly at the golden lotus root cakes in the pot, not afraid of the boiling oil splashing on him.
"Hoo~lu" It smells so good!
Qiao Xi gently poked the formed lotus root cake with meat and saw that it was cooked inside and out. He picked it up to filter out the oil, blew on it, and then handed it to Xiao Xingxing.
"How is it?" Qiao Xi looked at Little Star expectantly. It finished the lotus root cake with meat in one bite without even being seen chewing.
Does this taste good?
But Little Star's widened green eyes immediately told her that it should taste pretty good.
"Hulu~" Little Star stood up suddenly and howled to the sky. It smelled so good!
Then he looked at Qiao Xi eagerly and stretched out his huge bear paw to ask her for more lotus root cakes.
There was a lot of meat and lotus root, and there was a big pot of it that hadn’t been fried yet, which was enough for the little bear to satisfy his craving.
My brain often short-circuits. If you have any questions, please tell me and I will fix them quietly. Hehe
