"Is this impossible?!Are you kidding?!" Li almost jumped. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Nothing is impossible. Liu Mang got up from the chair with a "poof" and leaned in front of Li Yanran.
"In my heart, the signboard upstairs of our Liu family is worth this price!"
"Then are you playing tricks on me?" Li Yanran understood: "Mr. Liu, I advise you not to toast and eat and drink, today's incident is likely to repeat itself, and when you come next time, it will not only be a baseball bat, it is likely to be a machete, or a pistol." ”
"Who do you want to threaten?" A clear female voice came from outside the door, and Li Ruonan strode in from outside.
"Liu Mang, are you okay?" Li Ruonan saw the bruises on Liu Mang's face at a glance, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked with concern.
"Miss Li Ruonan?"
"Li Duran? I didn't expect you to be the one Luo Badao invited to be a lobbyist? I originally thought you were a wolf, why did you go back more and more and stay with the dog?"
"Ahem... Cough... Friends invite each other, but it's hard to be gracious..."Li Yanran laughed awkwardly.
"Do you know each other?" asked Liu Mang.
"Of course, who doesn't know the famous Chef Li of Manhan Building. ”
"Manhan Tower?" Liu Mang's pupils contracted sharply.
"You don't stay in the kitchen to stir-fry, but you actually come to mix with the underworld, don't you violate the ethics of a craftsman?" Li Ruonan sneered.
"Of course, I came this time because of cooking, I heard that there is a master in Jiangdong, and even South Korea's Kim Tae-hyun has returned home with his miraculous cooking skills. That's why I'd like to see it. ”
I heard that you also exchanged some of the shares upstairs and upstairs, and you are preparing to help operate the listing during this time?"
"Miss Li is really well-informed, and the affairs of the entire business district can't be hidden from you. ”
"So you want to completely remove Liu Mang's potential hidden dangers upstairs before going public, so that you can sit back and relax?" asked Li Ruonan aggressively.
"No! absolutely not!" Li Yanran waved his hand again and again: "Mr. Liu Mang's injury tonight is definitely an accident, if I really want to do this, why make such a big fuss." ”
"I don't think you and Luo Badao are so stupid!" Li Ruonan snorted.
"I have already reported Liu Mang's quota to the Chef God Contest to the organizing committee, if he has an accident halfway and is plotted by someone using a subordinate method, what will you let the other people who participate in the contest think?
"If Miss Nan is too worried, things are not what you imagined at all, this time, I really want to learn cooking skills with Mr. Liu. ”
"Not interested. Liu Mang licked his lips: "I don't have the habit of being bitten by a dog and grabbing food with it." ”
"Then what does Mr. Liu Mang mean, no longer consider the price I give you?" Li Qianran's eyes narrowed.
"I've quoted you the price, five billion! Not a penny less!"
"So be it. Li Yanran lowered his head and thought for a moment: "I can call the shots and give you 100 million!" I hope Mr. Liu Mang can agree to my request. ”
"100 million, and you can transfer money immediately! Of course, if you want cash, it's a bit troublesome. ”
"I've already made it very clear, don't you understand people's words?
"Okay!" Five-Eyed crossed his hands and twisted, his joints made a 'thunderbolt' sound, and he said in a dark voice, "Are you going out by yourself?" or am I going to throw you out?"
"Haha! It seems that there are still a majority of stupid people in the world who don't know the current affairs!" Li Yanran's face turned pale: "Mr. Liu must be very confident in his cooking skills, thinking that he will definitely win the championship of the Chef God Competition?"
"It's a pity, greed is not enough to swallow elephants!" Li Wanran paused: "Okay! Then I'll let Mr. Liu Mang see how the real chef cooks at the Chef God Competition." ”
Li Yanran ignored the crowd, but walked to the kitchen in the back by himself, turned around and asked, "Mr. Liu doesn't mind if I demonstrate it." ”
"Boss, are you going to beat him out?" asked Five-Eyes.
"Wait and see what he wants. ”
Li Junran came to the kitchen and admired while watching: "Although the sparrows are small, they are complete, and it seems that Mr. Liu Mang usually does not work hard." But it's a pity, cooking is not a thing that works hard under the light, and there is a heritage, and it doesn't work for a blind man to touch an elephant!"
Li Yanran opened the refrigerator, took out two eggplants from it, took them in his hand and looked at them carefully, and then leaned over to his nose and sniffed them.
"It's a little wilting, but it still works. ”
Then he took out a little minced pork and ginger, onions, garlic and other condiments. Finally, he ran to a salted fish hanging in the corner of the house and cut a small piece with a knife.
"Is he going to make salted fish and eggplant pot?" Liu Mang was a little puzzled.
Salted fish and eggplant clay pot is a basic dish of Cantonese cuisine, and it is also the most classic dish.
This dish looks simple, but it is actually quite a test of a chef's skills, because the biggest difficulty lies in controlling the oil.
When making this dish, you should first fry the eggplant to create a charred feeling. However, the flesh of the eggplant itself is spongy, and when you fry it, all the oil penetrates into it, and it feels extremely greasy when you eat it.
Therefore, the general practice is to cook the fried eggplant again to force out the excess oil in the eggplant. However, in this case, the eggplant is easy to rot, which will affect the final taste of the dish.
A truly successful salted fish and eggplant pot must taste salty and fresh, crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. The flavor of the salted fish should be perfectly blended with the eggplant, and the cooking and frying times should be quite precise and balanced.
Easier said than done......
Li Yanran put the eggplant on the cutting board, took a deep breath, and the kitchen knife cut down, and the movement was so fast that it was dazzling.
"Master!" Liu Mang was shocked!
This one does have two brushes, because most chefs will first scrape off the skin of the eggplant with a spatula to leave one and then cut it into long strips.
The advantage of this is that the amount of eggplant skin and meat is consistent. The charred skin and the smoothness of the eggplant meat are perfectly combined.
But what Li Yanran now uses is a wheat ear knife method similar to that used when cutting squid. On the slightly rolled diamond-shaped eggplant blocks, a small piece of the eggplant skin is cut off, leaving a small piece, purple and white, which is very beautiful.
When the eggplant and ingredients were ready, Li began to cook on the stove.
Fried! Over the water! Li Wanran, an old man, has neat skills that do not match his age at all. The action is crisp, full of strength, and it is easy to move without the slightest drag.
Stir-fry the meat until fragrant, add condiments!Pour in the broth, simmer the eggplant in the pot!Hook in the thin thickener, and reduce the juice over high heat!
As the process is completed, a strong fragrance emanates from the stove and fills the entire kitchen.
"Zila!" The cooked eggplant is poured into a pre-fired casserole.
When the steam rises, purple eggplant, bright red pepper foam, verdant green onions, and golden salted fish can be seen faintly shining in the casserole.
The main ingredient and ingredients complement each other to increase the appetite.
"A salted fish and eggplant pot, please taste it!" Li laughed triumphantly.
ps: I have something to go back to my hometown, there is no network, and I will make up for it the next day if I am more here today. Also, don't worry that I'll write about things other than cooking, all the plots in my books are related to cooking, and of course, sometimes some foreshadowing.
