Chapter 155 Grilled crucian carp in lotus leaves!
Honglian Village Fish Pond, a quarter to nine.
The sky was azure blue and the water was sparkling.
From a distance, the middle-aged security guard saw the food truck that had haunted him yesterday.
I just felt my heart beating like a drum, so fast that it was about to jump out of my throat.
This is the new boss!
Let him go!
Let him go quickly!
So, Su Chen saw his dining cart when it was still several meters away from the automatic lifting barrier.
The pole was lifted up quickly with a "swish".
The security guard even came out of his booth and leaned forward to offer a welcoming gesture.
Su Chen nodded and greeted him.
So he drove the car to the side of the restaurant at the fishing ground and parked it.
After getting off the car, I looked around and saw a few fishermen scattered around the pond.
You know, if the fishing spots are too close together, the rods will clash.
If it is a windy day, the line will be tangled when the wind blows.
Therefore, each fishing spot here is about five meters apart.
These fishermen are all fully armed.
Wearing sun-protective clothing, a big hat and sunglasses, he sat under a parasol and stared at the water intently.
I don't know how long they have been here.
Maybe someone caught some fish early and went home long ago.
"Dad, why are we setting up a stall here?"
Ever since she got into the car with Su Chen, the smile on Nuonuo's lips has never faded.
Now we see large fish ponds, shady trees, and quaint pavilions and arch bridges...
The eyes are even brighter.
"Because this is our family's. Dad has contracted this entire fish pond."
When Nuonuo heard this, she suddenly paused.
Then, he grinned foolishly and clapped his hands excitedly.
"Wow, that's great! They're all ours!"
Su Chen: ...
This silly little girl.
"Boss, good morning! You're here."
After receiving the notification from the security guard, Wang Song quickly stopped what he was doing and ran over to say hello.
"Hey, little friend, why are you so cute!"
Nuonuo was wearing a milky white princess dress, and her soft hair was tied into two small buns by Su Chen, each bun was tied with a delicate bow with a red ribbon.
The baby-fat cheeks are white and tender, like a glutinous rice dumpling, making people want to pinch them.
The tender and cute voice makes people's hearts melt.
This girl is so cute.
Wang Song's eyes were glued to Nuonuo, and he couldn't restrain his love for her.
"Come, uncle, give me a hug!"
Who knows.
Nuonuo raised her little head and snorted proudly.
"No, Dad said that girls can't let others hug them unless they are their relatives."
After being rejected, Wang Song realized that his previous behavior was a bit rash.
He scratched his head awkwardly and took the opportunity to flatter the person.
"Hey, this little girl is quite alert. You've taught her really well, boss!"
Hearing this, Su Chen smiled and gently touched Nuonuo's head.
Then he turned around and started packing up the dining cart.
For this mission - charcoal grilled fish, the system also specially transformed the dining car into two parts.
One side is the grilling area and the other side is the cooking area.
There is a special charcoal grill in the grilling area, and a powerful exhaust device is installed on top.
The stove is used to stir-fry the base ingredients and side dishes.
Nowadays, most of the grilled fish in restaurants are fried.
The method of frying the fish first and then stewing it with base ingredients and vegetables makes the meal come out quickly and the meat is tender.
But fried grilled fish lacks the unique aroma of charcoal grilling.
After all, charcoal grilling can create an attractive charred aroma on the surface of the fish, locking in the juice inside the fish and making the fish more tender and juicy.
Moreover, the unique smoky flavor produced by the burning charcoal will slowly penetrate into the fish, giving it a unique flavor.
If it lacks the charcoal-grilled aroma, can it still be called grilled fish?
Anyway, Su Chen quite approves of this traditional way of grilling fish.
"Boss, if you need any help, please let me know."
Wang Song looked at Su Chen eagerly, his eyes full of enthusiasm.
"Oh, really, there are some. Please help arrange it and catch two crucian carp for me."
Anyway, there is no business now, so I have to try the taste first.
Crucian carp is small in size, tender in texture and tastes delicious.
Why not grill two and try them first to see if you can conquer yourself first.
After Su Chen gave his instructions, he glanced around.
His eyes immediately fixed on the large vat next to him.
I saw some green lotus leaves in the tank.
I made up my mind instantly and decided to make a grilled crucian carp in lotus leaf.
The unique fragrance of lotus leaves combined with the fresh and tender fish must taste amazing.
Su Chen got up and picked two lotus leaves.
Soak it in boiling water until soft, wipe it dry, brush it with some peanut oil, and set it aside.
Then, he lit the charcoal fire on one side of the dining car.
At this time, the crucian carp came.
It was delivered by Wang Song himself.
Of course, there was no need to tell anyone about things like kitchen knives, scrapers, cutting boards, and basins. Wang Song had already arranged for someone to take care of them.
They even sent an extra chef from the restaurant to help.
It can be said to be very thoughtful.
Su Chen took the fish prepared by the chef.
Mix the cooking wine and salt, apply it evenly on the fish body and belly, stuff some ginger and garlic and marinate for a while.
Once you're done, you need to season it.
Su Chen smeared some carefully prepared secret barbecue ingredients such as cumin, chili, and peppercorns on the fish, then wrapped it in lotus leaves and secured it with two bamboo sticks.
Now it's time to put it on the grill and slowly grill it over the charcoal fire.
Not long.
The emerald green lotus leaves began to change color slightly, and the original herbal scent became richer and mellower.
It's like strolling in a lotus pond after a summer rain.
The light grass fragrance and the unique freshness of aquatic plants are intertwined with the fresh fragrance of crucian carp meat, which is quite comfortable and pleasant.
“It smells so good…”
Nuonuo stood in front of the food cart, her slightly drunk eyes staring at the fragrant grill, tears of longing almost flowing from the corners of her mouth.
"Nuonuo, don't be anxious, the grilled fish is not ready yet."
The little girl waved her hands and said, "Don't worry, don't worry."
Then he stared again.
He stared at it for five minutes without even moving his body.
Gradually.
The surface of the lotus leaf was roasted and dried, and the middle part was carved by the flames into a yellow-brown color with a slightly black hue.
It’s almost cooked.
Su Chen took the two lotus leaf wrapped fish off the grill.
Gently peel off the fragrant lotus leaves.
In an instant, a burst of hot air carrying an enticing fragrance blew towards me.
After the heat dissipates, the skin of the crucian carp becomes golden and slightly burnt.
Su Chen picked up the chopsticks and gently picked up a piece of fish.
After looking at Nuonuo, he stuffed it into his mouth.
"Well, Dad, try it first to see if it's salty."
The moment you put it in your mouth, you will first feel the slightly crispy fish skin.
As your teeth gently cut into the fish, the tender and smooth fish meat is revealed, wrapped in the secret barbecue sauce and spreading on the tip of your tongue.
Every bit of fish is perfectly imbued with the elegant scent of lotus leaves, and the taste experience is distinct yet harmonious.
It’s really wonderful!
