Chapter 222 Coconut Chicken Stew



As soon as the car stopped, Sister Yao from next door came over with two family members of soldiers.

"Comrade Jiang, are you back from get off work?"

Jiang Qingyue turned her head and smiled, "Well, it's time to get off work."

Sister Yao walked over quickly and pointed to the pile of coconuts on the beach below. "Comrade Jiang, I remember you made some coconut jelly last time. The kids loved it. Why don't you teach us how to make it? How can we digest so many coconuts?"

"Yes, Captain Zhou told everyone to share the coconuts, but there are so many of them that we can't finish them all."

Jiang Qingyue couldn't help but smile when she heard that.

I guess Zhou Zhengting felt overwhelmed just by looking at the coconuts, so he came up with the idea of ​​distributing the coconuts door to door.

Out of sight, out of mind.

Jiang Qingyue thought about it, then said, "Okay, you all come to our yard later, and I'll tell you how to make coconut jelly."

"Okay then, let's go and call a few more people to come and learn from us."

After they left, Jiang Qingyue asked Zhou Zhengting to help move some coconuts back and put them in the yard.

Looking at so many coconuts, Jiang Qingyue couldn't help but feel troubled.

Coconut jelly is delicious, but a little tricky to make.

And it's not long-lasting.

There was certainly no way to consume all those piles of coconuts.

As Jiang Qingyue was thinking about it, an idea suddenly occurred to her, and she remembered the last time she was bored and made coconut oil with coconuts.

He immediately asked Zhou Zhengting to help crack open a few coconuts and take out the coconut meat.

After the military dependents called by Sister Yao entered the yard, Jiang Qingyue officially prepared to tell everyone how to make coconut oil.

Coconuts are produced in abundance in the South Island, and many local residents eat coconut oil.

But for military families who come from other places, many of them have heard of coconut oil for the first time.

"Can this coconut be used to extract oil? Can the extracted oil be used to cook?"

Jiang Qingyue nodded, "You can use it for cooking, or for applying it on your face or hair."

At this time, cooking oil is a considerable expense for ordinary people.

So when the military families heard that it could be used for cooking, they were very excited.

Some beauty-conscious people also asked, "I only know that coconuts can be eaten, but I didn't know that they can also be applied on the face and hair?"

Jiang Qingyue nodded and smiled, "Coconut oil has many uses. Apply a little when washing your hair, and your hair will be smooth."

"Comrade Jiang, your hair is so good, is it because of the coconut oil?"

Jiang Qingyue was not vague and asked An An to help her get some coconut oil from the bathroom. "There's only a little left. You can take a look. It smells pretty good."

Everyone took it and passed it around, looking at it, "Hmm, it smells pretty good."

"I didn't expect it to be so white, just like lard."

Jiang Qingyue didn't say much and directly told everyone how to make coconut oil.

"Remember to filter it and simmer it over low heat. After it's done, let it cool and solidify until it looks like this."

Everyone listened and took notes, "It sounds simple, let's go home and try it."

Seeing that everyone was interested, Zhou Zhengting finally had a place to put the coconuts that had been bothering him.

He hurried back to the team and arranged for the soldiers to distribute coconuts.

While Zhou Zhengting was busy, Jiang Qingyue also started thinking about cooking with coconut.

I've been here for so long and have long wanted to try making coconut stewed chicken.

Do not add a drop of water. Use boiled coconut water to add chicken, red dates, wolfberries and ginger slices and stew.

Cut the coconut meat into small strips and stew them together.

The chicken soup is sweet and the meat is tender.

Jiang Qingyue was afraid that Zhou Zhengting would not be able to get used to the taste, so she specially prepared a spicy sauce for him to dip the chicken in.

By the time the chicken was cooked, Zhou Zhengting came back from the beach.

As soon as I walked in, I smelled the aroma. "Is there chicken soup tonight?"

Jiang Qingyue smiled and replied, "It's coconut chicken soup."

Zhou Zhengting groaned, then whispered back, "Coconut stewed chicken? Can it be delicious?"

"I just tasted it and it's OK, do you want to try it?"

No matter how much he doubted, he would still drink the soup his wife cooked even if it was poisonous.

So he asked Jiang Qingyue to fill a small bowl for him first.

Jiang Qingyue brought the casserole directly to the table and served a small bowl to everyone.

Chenchen and Anan took a sip and both exclaimed that it was delicious.

He drank it in big gulps.

Seeing that the two children were eating so happily, Zhou Zhengting, who had been hesitant, also started to use the spoon.

I took a sip of the soup and it tasted...not bad?

After tasting it, it seems that there is a hint of sweetness and fragrance in the aftertaste?

He picked up the bowl and drank it in one gulp.

"Well, it's totally different from what I imagined, wife, you are amazing."

Jiang Qingyue picked up a piece of chicken and gave it to him. "Don't just drink the soup, eat some of the meat too. I made this sauce especially for you."

Zhou Zhengting was so moved that he almost cried, "Thank you, my dear wife."

When Chenchen and Anan saw this, they covered their mouths and laughed.

"Mom, I want some meat too."

Jiang Qingyue was impartial and picked out two pieces of good meat for them.

"Thank you, mother."

After hearing this, Zhou Zhengting and Jiang Qingyue couldn't help but burst into laughter.

After dinner, Zhou Zhengting mentioned Old Xu’s injury while cleaning up.

"By the way, wife, Uncle Xu was discharged from the hospital today. Shall we go see him together tomorrow?"

Jiang Qingyue glanced out the window and saw that it was already dusk.

So he suggested, "Why don't we go over now? Bring the eggs we just bought from home, some fruit, and two cans of malted milk."

Zhou Zhengting hummed, "Okay, let's walk over there, it's a good opportunity to take a stroll."
