Chapter 149: A Hearty Breakfast at the Spring Festival



The breakfast was exceptionally sumptuous. Lin Yuemei was famous for her cooking skills, and there were several dishes that made people drool just by looking at them.

The first course was beef brisket stewed with tomatoes.

First, peel and chop the tomatoes, wash the beef and chop it into cubes, put it in a pot with cold water, add onion, ginger and cooking wine and bring to a boil, remove the floating foam and wash it clean.

Put oil and rock sugar in the pot and stir-fry to bring out the sugar color. Pour in the beef and stir-fry to color it. Add onion, ginger, star anise, cinnamon, bay leaves and dried chilies and stir-fry to bring out the aroma. Then add the tomatoes and stir-fry to bring out the juice. Add two spoons of soy sauce and dark soy sauce, stir-fry evenly and add appropriate amount of boiling water.

After the water boils, add the beef cubes, turn to low heat, cover the pot with a lid, and simmer for about an hour. Then add potato and tomato cubes, add appropriate amount of salt and simmer for about ten minutes. When the potatoes are soft, they can be served.

As a typical representative of meat, chicken is rich in nutrients such as protein, calcium, phosphorus, iron, carotene, etc. It can not only supplement nutrition for the human body, strengthen the body and enhance physical strength, but also promote the growth and development of infants and adolescents, relieve unhealthy conditions, and improve the body's immunity.

Lin Yuemei heard all this from an old janitor at the factory who focused on health preservation. So for the sake of her family's health, chicken became an indispensable meat during the New Year for the Su family.

The first dish is pepper chicken.

First, prepare a chicken, clean it, cut a piece of scallion into oblique sections, and cut a piece of ginger into slices.

Then put the onion, ginger, chicken and appropriate amount of chili pepper into the pot, add appropriate amount of water and a spoonful of cooking wine and stew. After the water boils, skim off the foam and stew for another ten minutes.

After ten minutes, soak the chicken in water, and then take out a bowl of the original chicken soup for later use. Shred a few green peppers and a few red peppers. Tear the soaked chicken into small pieces, and then add the green and red peppers.

Heat oil in a pan, add appropriate amount of chili pepper and dried chili pepper and stir-fry until fragrant, pour in a bowl of original chicken soup, add a spoonful of soy sauce, appropriate amount of chili pepper powder, salt and sugar, boil over high heat until the soup is slightly thick, and finally pour it over the chicken. Mix well and serve.

This delicious spicy chicken dish is ready.

The third dish is corn and pork ribs soup.

This is a tonic soup, the main ingredients of which are corn and pork ribs. Corn can lower blood cholesterol levels and prevent it from depositing on blood vessel walls. It is rich in nutrients and promotes people's absorption of vitamins and calcium.

First, chop the ribs into pieces about four centimeters in length, remove the husks and whiskers of the corn, wash them, and cut them into small pieces.

Put water in the casserole and pour the ribs in to blanch. After the water boils, pour out the blood foam in the pot. Control the time and do not cook the meat too well.

First heat the pan, then add oil and stir-fry the ribs. This will make the soup thicker.

Add water to the pot after stir-frying. Here is a little trick: you can add two drops of vinegar to the water. This can make the calcium in the ribs more easily dissolve. This is not only more conducive to human absorption, but also has the effect of enhancing flavor and fragrance.

Then put the corn and ginger into the pot and cook for half an hour. Then put the carrots in and cook. Because carrots are easy to cook, put them last. Before serving, add a few wolfberries and cook for two minutes. Sprinkle with green onions and serve.

The fourth dish is fried tofu with green onions.

First, roll the fresh tofu into slices of uniform thickness and cut the green onions into small pieces.

Then heat the pan with cold oil, add green onion and chili pepper, fry slowly over low heat, put tofu into the pan, fry slowly over low heat. Add chili powder, chili powder, sesame oil, chili oil, and salt into the pan in turn and stir evenly.

Fry the tofu on both sides until golden brown, sprinkle with scallions and sesame seeds before serving.

"Eat quickly." Lin Yuemei looked at her family members holding their bowls and eating with relish, and she felt a sense of satisfaction in her heart.

After dinner, Su Nan and Su Yang took the initiative to wash the dishes, and then the family sat on the sofa, chatting and cracking melon seeds. It was so relaxing, but Su Nan seemed a little absent-minded, and his eyes kept glancing towards the door.

Su Yang was sitting next to her, how could he not know her little move? In his heart, he spit on his sister's idea of ​​"being a Cao Ying in body but a Han in heart".

He couldn't help but increase the force of spitting out the melon seed shells angrily.

Su Qiangguo looked at the melon seed shells flying in his hand and wanted to grab Su Yang by the collar to teach him a lesson, but before he could open his mouth to curse, he caught a glimpse of his wife's gloomy eyes.

That look seemed to say: It's New Year's Day, don't make trouble for the children.

Su Qiangguo swallowed his saliva, thinking of the difficult process of coaxing the angry person out of his room after closing the door last night. He silently grabbed the melon seed shell with his hand and threw it into the trash can.

He is my own son, so I won't argue with him.

At this time, my daughter suddenly said: "Mom and Dad, I haven't been here for a long time. I want to go out for a walk."

"It's so cold, why go out? It's warm and comfortable at home." Su Qiangguo refused subconsciously.

Su Nan choked and gritted his teeth and said, "Oh, didn't I make some friends when I was in school? I haven't seen them since I went to the countryside. I'm going out for a walk now, and I'll go and play with them by the way."

Su Qiangguo wanted to say something, but Lin Yuemei spoke up: "Nannan, come on, remember to come early for dinner."

"Yes, thank you, Mom." Su Nan smiled immediately, stood up, ran to Lin Yuemei and kissed her on the cheek.

Su Yang cracked melon seeds fiercely and watched Su Nan skipping into the room, getting her bag, and then walking straight out the door.

*

Su Nan went downstairs quickly and ran straight to the nearby supply and marketing department.

At this time, there was only one female clerk in the supply and marketing store, looking after the store. During the Chinese New Year, everyone was on holiday to reunite with their families, but she still had to be on duty. She was in a particularly bad mood. She caught a glimpse of someone entering the store and said weakly.

“There are no vegetables or fruits for sale.”

"Hey, I'm not buying anything. I just came to ask if anyone called Su Nan this morning." Su Nan looked at the female clerk with a smile and asked politely.

Hearing this, the female clerk raised her head and looked at Su Nan. She was stunned on the spot the next second. She had never seen such a beautiful girl before. She seemed to be shining all over.

"Wait a minute, I'll check for you." The female clerk came to her senses and immediately flipped through the notebook at hand, and found the message in the call records from the morning.

"A gay man called you and said he was waiting for you at the place where we separated last time." The female clerk finished quickly.

Su Nan's eyes lit up, pink bubbles began to appear in her heart, and she smiled shyly: "Thank you."

"You're welcome." The female clerk smiled and her mood improved a little. She stood up and watched Su Nan leave and disappear around the corner.

When did such a beautiful girl appear in their area? Su Nan, this name is quite familiar. Tsk, isn't she the daughter of the Su family from the steel factory?

She remembered that she had met Su Nan a few times before, and she had a very bad temper. How come she has become so polite now? And she knows how to dress up and is so beautiful?

How strange.

The female clerk would not know that this Su Nan was not the same Su Nan she had seen before. This Su Nan was not that Su Nan.
