1215 Is It Cute When You're Small?
Before frying, Xu Zhuo first prepared the sauce that will be used later.
In this way, after the oil is fried out of the pan, you can start to paste the meatballs while they are hot, which will make the meatballs taste better and more enjoyable to eat.
The sauce for making bayberry balls is very simple, salt, vinegar, sugar, bayberry juice and water starch, these are enough.
Xu Zhuo first squeezed out the bayberry juice with a juicer, then added salt, white sweet and sour and starch to it, stirred well, and set it aside for later use.
Then he brought a plate, poured some breadcrumbs into it, and began to prepare the croquettes.
The meatballs are wrapped in a layer of breadcrumbs, which not only makes the fried meatballs look better, but also tastes crispy and delicious.
In particular, when a layer of bayberry juice is hung while it is hot, it tastes even better.
Put the wok on the stove, pour oil into the pan and heat it slowly.
In this process, Xu Zhuo has already begun to squeeze the balls by hand.
He put his left hand into the basin containing the minced meat, grabbed it twice with his hand, and then held a handful of minced meat, loosened the part of the tiger's mouth, and squeezed it gently, and a ball was squeezed out of the part of the tiger's mouth.
Xu Zhuo took the spoon, dipped it in the water first, and then leaned under the balls and scraped them gently, and the balls were put into the spoon.
Then put the meatballs on a plate with breadcrumbs, pour the meatballs into it, and gently push twice to let the meatballs roll slowly in it, so that the breadcrumbs are firmly on top of the meatballs.
After being covered with breadcrumbs, Xu Zhuo placed the meatballs on a large tray.
With patience, he dipped the meatballs one by one with breadcrumbs, and now the oil temperature in the pot was almost up, ready for frying.
"Wow, this is starting to blow up? Wait a minute, I'm going to shoot it, these balls look so cute. ”
Yu Keke rushed over with his mobile phone to take a shot of Xu Zhuo's croquettes.
However, Xu Zhuo still recalled what this girl had just said in his mind.
"Cute?"
He looked at the meatballs that were already covered with breadcrumbs at this time, and he didn't really understand what Coco said about cuteness, the only thing that was different from other meatballs was that the balls were relatively small.
The dish is similar to bayberry balls to some extent, so the size is not very large, and it is about the same size as bayberry.
But does being small equal to cute?
Xu Zhuo glanced at his daughter-in-law, and wanted to say that your breasts are also very cute.
However, he was worried that this girl would directly splash the hot oil in the pot on his face, so he wisely closed his mouth.
Don't feel uncomfortable.
Otherwise, the bear cub will not be able to save himself.
After Yu Keke was ready for shooting, Xu Zhuo picked up the tray and began to pour the balls into the pot.
When the fire was just turned on, Xu Zhuo kept the heat on medium, so until now, the oil temperature in the pot is not very high, only about fifty percent hot.
This oil temperature is the best for the croquettes, and the heat can slowly penetrate into the croquettes, so that the inside can be heated evenly until it is cooked through.
And because the oil temperature is not high, there is no need to worry about the bran on the outside.
When frying this breadcrumb-coated meat, the oil temperature should not be too high, and fifty percent of the oil temperature is properly enough.
Of course, if you want to fry cooked meat, you only need to fry the crust, then use high temperature hot oil, which can not only fry the crust in the shortest time, but also make the crust very beautiful.
In addition, if you use hot oil at high temperatures, it will prevent the fat from penetrating into the ingredients, making it taste greasy.
There were a lot of meatballs prepared today, and they couldn't be fried all at once, so Xu Zhuo fried them in batches.
After he put the balls into the pot, he waited for about half a minute, and then pushed the balls in the pot a few times according to the upper number, so that the balls on the bottom of the pot could slowly float up.
If you push it directly into the pot, it will easily push the meatballs apart, and it will also push off the breadcrumbs on the meatballs.
After all, it's low-temperature frying, so you can't rush.
Be sure to wait until the surface of the meatballs is slightly fried and dry before pushing, so that the fried meatballs will be more perfect.
Because the balls are small, they soon float on the surface of the oil and turn golden in color.
"Wow, it's so beautiful, what if you can't bear to eat it?"
These little balls made Yu Keke very excited, and he took his mobile phone next to him and took several small videos in a row, which made Xu Zhuo very strange.
"It's just some ordinary meatballs, are you so excited?"
Yu Keke glanced at him and said: "You don't know, I used to snack on Yangzhou's lion head, meatballs bigger than a fist, and now when I see these small balls, I naturally like them very much."
Don't you think those little animals are cute?"
Xu Zhuo: "......"
This strange association actually made me speechless, this is food, and it is also a service to be associated with small animals.
People who are used to eating lion's heads do find it more interesting to see these little balls, but with adjectives like cute, are you sure you can eat them later?
When the balls turned golden brown, Xu Zhuo took them out with a colander and put them in a basket to dry, by the way, to control the excess oil, so as to save him from getting tired when he ate it later.
Once served, wait for the oil in the pan to rise a little warmer before starting to fry the next pan.
And Yu Keke gathered around the fried meatballs, touching them with her hands from time to time: "This is very similar to the chicken rice sold in KFC, is it delicious?"
Xu Zhuo smiled confidently: "Don't worry, it's much better than chicken rice flowers." ”
When Yu Keke heard this, she became even more energetic, she took advantage of Xu Zhuo's concentration on the croquettes, secretly pinched a balls in her hand, and she was not afraid of being hot, so she put it in her mouth.
"Wow...... It's so hot, but it tastes so delicious, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, it's delicious. ”
After she endured the scalding and ate the whole ball, she looked at Xu Zhuo very much and said: "From today on, the dish of bayberry balls will be added to the imperial diet of the mourning family, it is so delicious, why is there no bayberry flavor? Is it because it is too hot?"
Xu Zhuo glanced at her: "It's because it's not done yet, it's just fried for a while, and I'll have to hang the sauce later." You go to the living room and wait, I'll bring it to you when it's ready, there's hot oil everywhere, I'm afraid it will burn you. ”
Yu Keke nodded, and said with some reluctance: "That's good......"
She was just about to go out, but she suddenly picked up a bowl, scooped out most of the bowl from the fried meatballs, and then ran out with tomato sauce and salt and pepper, and looked like she was afraid that Xu Zhuo would chase her out.
"Hehe, I'm so smart, there is really more than one way to eat meatballs......"
Yu Keke's foolish laughter came from the living room, and it was obvious that this girl was once again addicted to food and had put the matter of losing weight out of the clouds.
Xu Zhuo shook his head and continued to fry croquettes.
