181. Kangaroo meat hot pot
"But I need your help. Kebi said as she walked to the kitchen.
"We would be happy to serve you, dear Her Majesty. Emperor Wu picked up a cucumber and ate it, the cucumber was a little dehydrated, it seemed that it had been there for a long time, and it tasted weird.
Looking at Kaibi's seductive figure, Emperor Wu couldn't help but hug her from behind, but he couldn't be interested in being hungry.
"Oh, I don't have any vegetables at home, so my vegetable salad will be ruined. "Kabi searched for a while in the kitchen on the first floor and only found a few spinach leaves.
Wu Di returned to the sofa in the living room to drink water, the layout of the whole house was very warm, although Ms. Caitlyn was away on business, the home was still very tidy, and there was not a single dust to be seen.
"I can only go to the supermarket to buy it, and I will bring some hot pot base back, how about we eat hot pot at night." ”
"Hot pot?" said Kebi from the kitchen, "I've seen a hot pot restaurant, but I've never eaten it, it looks steaming hot and spicy." ”
After some discussion, the two happily decided that there was no need to make a big fuss. Kaibi makes a salad, then goes to the supermarket to buy ingredients and eat Chinese hot pot.
The Raptor started again, this time with Capi in the passenger seat.
The small supermarket in the centre of Pelican Town ticks all the boxes.
It's a wonderful feeling for two people to go to the supermarket together, especially when they go to the food area, just like a newlywed couple living at home.
"Hey, Emperor Wu, help me get a bottle of blueberry juice, right behind you. Kaibi shouted to Emperor Wu who was pushing the shopping cart.
"Buy some spinach, it's delicious when it's hot. Emperor Wu pointed to what he thought was "spinach" and said.
Kebi laughed, "That's kraft." ”
Emperor Wu smiled awkwardly.
"You can actually buy kangaroo meat in the supermarket!" Wu Di exclaimed, where kangaroo meat was placed on the shelves like beef and mutton.
"Yes, in Australia, kangaroo meat is just as common as beef and lamb. "Kabi was bending down to pick vegetables," Oh yes, just the other day, the government sent out a message saying that kangaroo hunting is encouraged, because there are so many grey kangaroos on the east coast. ”
Emperor Wu was surprised, after all, the kangaroo is an animal on the Australian national emblem and a symbol of the country, and the government actually jumped out publicly to speak, can this be said to be killed?
Kaibi saw Emperor Wu's doubts, and said helplessly: "No way, any kind of animal can be flooded in Australia, and the mass breeding of kangaroos will threaten the survival of other animals." ”
Emperor Wu shook his head, "To be honest, it's a shame to let an edible animal overflow. ”
Emperor Wu's words attracted the surprised eyes of the surrounding Australian uncles and aunts.
"The government is planning to export kangaroos to China, because you are very good at cooking, and in my opinion, kangaroo meat is not very tasty." ”
"Maybe I can open a trading company for kangaroo meat, specialize in importing it back to China, and I will definitely make a lot of money. "Emperor Wu came up with a way to make a fortune.
Kabi brought over a few servings of vegetables and put them in the shopping cart.
The price of food in Australia is still very affordable compared to the annual income of Australians.
Fresh mushrooms are $6 a kilogram, baby greens are $3 and 3 handfuls, and cauliflower is about $2 a kilogram.
But there are also outrageously expensive dishes, such as the ginger of "Ginger You Army", which can be sold for more than 30 Australian dollars a kilogram, and the green onion is sold by the root, one Australian a piece.
When taking hot pot seasoning is the most interesting time, Kaibi has never eaten hot pot, does not know the role of bags of condiments on the shelf, and smells around with a few packets of different packaging.
After a while, Kabi became interested in peanut butter, which she liked to spread on slices of bread with a glass of milk.
Since it's a hot pot, let's have a good meal. What peanut butter, sand tea sauce, sesame sauce took all over.
Emperor Wu had a whim, not knowing what the taste of shabu-shabu kangaroo meat was, so he took three bags of mutton and then took a bag of kangaroo meat.
Fish balls, tofu, enoki mushrooms and the like are indispensable.
Kaibi stood aside and looked at the "gourmet" Emperor Wu with admiration.
Emperor Wu summed it up, as long as the Australian family's household dishes are very cheap, the others are very expensive, and Kaibi also agrees with this.
At the checkout, Kaibi blushed a little because she found that Emperor Wu had taken a box of sets.
Emperor Wu wanted to spice up Christmas Eve.
After nearly an hour of shopping in the supermarket, the two had another cup of coffee at Starbucks before they were ready to go back.
At eight o'clock in the evening, the sky had completely darkened, and the town was lit up with sparse lights. Pelican Town has a Christmas vibe, with snow and red Santa hats plastered on Maggie's bar windows.
After a busy day's work, the ranch cowboys have a pastime at the bar and then go home for Christmas Eve.
Back at Kaibi's house, the two smiled and carried the big bags to the kitchen to prepare a hot pot feast.
As soon as he entered the house, Emperor Wu suddenly thought that he had forgotten the big killer of Chinese cuisine - chopsticks!
Besides, Kaibi, an Australian girl, can't use it.
"Is this one?" said Kebi as he walked out of the kitchen with two pairs of chopsticks.
"Yes, you actually have chopsticks at home. "Emperor Wu was overjoyed.
"My mom often goes on business trips to China and brings it back. Kebi said seriously.
Okay, let's go!
No, it seems like there's something missing.
Induction!
There is no induction cooker at home in Australia, and Emperor Wu went around in the kitchen, which was full of electric frying pans, electric fryers and other non-fierce electrical appliances.
I had to go to a neighbor's house to borrow one, and after looking for ten, I finally borrowed an induction cooker.
Kaibi took out disposable dishes from the kitchen, which are usually used by Australians for dinner, and they are too soft and hot to eat hot pot, but fortunately there are four porcelain bowls at home.
The two of them were in the dining room getting ready to start. Add water, pour in the hot pot base, turn on electricity, and the soup will start steaming soon after boiling.
The fragrance is very strong, with the smell of numbness, the whole restaurant is there, Emperor Wu opened the two windows, and he could see the white heat wafting out of the window.
Kaibi opened a bottle of red wine, and the two of them drank a small glass before putting the vegetables. She doesn't like to drink red wine, but today's atmosphere makes her want to drink it.
After pouring red wine, Kaibi happily ran back to his room, and when he came back, he had two more Santa hats in his hand, one buckled on Emperor Wu's head, and the other was put on himself.
She sang Christmas songs, and the two took a sip of wine in the midst of the song. I don't know if it's because of the heat, or what, Kaibi's eyes are flashing, and she looks very moved.
The routine of the two is to eat vegetables first to clear the intestines, then eat some staple foods to protect the stomach, and finally eat all kinds of meat to satisfy their appetite.
Green foods such as kraft cabbage, fresh mushrooms, and baby greens were poured in.
Kaibi was excited to see them change in the hot water, but she didn't know how to use chopsticks at all, and she was about to shed tears when she saw that the food couldn't be eaten.
Emperor Wu took pity on the jade, and hurriedly put vegetables in her bowl, Kaibi got up and gave Emperor Wu a sweet kiss, and the oily little mouth with sesame juice was pasted on the side of Emperor Wu's face.
It turns out that getting a hemp kiss can be so simple.
She is super fond of sesame juice, and each vegetable leaf is dipped in a large piece and then filled into her mouth.
The two sat facing each other, with a steaming induction cooker in the middle, which was very family-like.
The little girl doesn't like to eat bitter melon, this kind of thing with the effect of cooling and brightening the eyes was completely solved by Emperor Wu, and Kaibi gave him a thumbs up and said that he was a hero.
The kangaroo meat that is soaked in hot pot tastes good, the thick soup masks the sourness, and it tastes better when cooked for a longer time.
Christmas news was broadcast on TV, and the whole West went into a state of revelry. In China, apples are packaged as gifts and sent to people, and people who don't know each other convey greetings and sincere blessings through the Internet.
"I know that sooner or later we will be separated, maybe it will be death, maybe it will be an early departure, and I hope that our friendship will last forever. ”
After that, Kaibi hummed "Auld Lang Syne", which is commonly known in China as the song of friendship for a long time.
It's not a traditional Christmas song, but because of the friendship and melodious tunes, people sing it on Christmas Day.
Emperor Wu whistled to accompany her, and the two clapped their hands and sang. He always felt that one day he would lose this simple and sensual girl, and hoped that this intuition was wrong.
