Chapter 132, six dishes and one soup!
in the kitchen.
On the large wooden board, the various ingredients that have been processed are arranged in turn.
There are, a soft-shelled turtle, a hairy crab, a black fish, a catfish, a large crucian carp, two plates of river shrimp, and a fat vole.
Tang Fan is going to have six dishes and one soup tonight, and the seven ingredients harvested this morning are the main ingredients, and Tang Fan has already thought about the cooking method of these seven ingredients.
The soup is crucian carp soup.
After drinking the head soup of bighead carp and the light soft-shelled turtle soup, tonight Tang Fan is ready to taste what the soup made of crucian carp from this other world tastes like.
Crucian carp soup is also very easy to make, the crucian carp with scales and internal organs removed is slapped with flour on both sides, the whole one is put into the oil pan and fried until golden on both sides, then put in green onions, ginger, star anise and cooking wine, then put in a large amount of boiling water, boil over high heat and turn to low heat and simmer for half an hour, then add salt and pepper after the soup is thick and white, sprinkle coriander and chives out of the pot, and the crucian carp soup is completed......
In fact, crucian carp is suitable for making soup, not only because of the delicious taste, it is also rich in nutritional value, has a good nourishing function, especially suitable for lactating women, crucian carp soup has a strong lactation effect, in fact, catfish tofu soup can also promote milk, but it is not as good as the effect of crucian carp soup.
After the soup introduction, let's introduce the six dishes.
The two hairy crabs don't say much, they are still steamed, steaming is to maintain its unique flavor and deliciousness, and second, this method is the simplest, Tang Fan has too many dishes to cook tonight, and he doesn't want to bother more about this crab.
As for the soft-shelled turtle, Tang Fan can finally get what he wants to use for stir-frying.
Chop the soft-shelled turtle into pieces, sit in the pot to heat oil, put ginger, garlic and onion and stir-fry until fragrant, stir-fry the soft-shelled turtle meat until it changes color, add cooking wine and a small amount of water, boil for a few minutes on high heat, put in a large amount of red rice pepper and green pepper, stir-fry!
The green and red chili peppers, paired with oily soft-shelled turtle meat, can hook people with gluttonous insects just by looking good.
The third dish is the black fish steak.
Black fish is generally used to make fish fillets and fish steaks, because it has fewer spines, this less, not that it has no fish bones, but in common freshwater fish, it has no other small miscellaneous spines in addition to the main spines of the spine and the ribs on both sides, unlike crucian carp and carp with a large number of triangular burrs, it is labor-saving and rest assured to eat, in fact, catfish has no miscellaneous spines, but the catfish meat is too delicate and soft, and it is easy to disperse after cooking for a long time, and it is not as suitable as black fish to make fish steaks......
The steps to make the fish steak are a little more cumbersome.
First of all, the fish meat on both sides should be sliced from the vertebrae, the skin, fins and ribs on it should be removed, and then sliced into a half-centimeter-thick uniform piece of meat, marinated for a few minutes with salt, cooking wine, pepper, etc., and then the flour can be patted on the flour and hung with egg liquid, and fried in an oil pan......
The fourth course is grilled catfish with garlic.
Tang Fan originally wanted to make catfish stewed eggplant, but it was difficult for Qiao Woman to cook without rice, he didn't have eggplant at home, and there was a lot of garlic, so he could only settle for the next best thing and make a garlic roasted catfish.
In fact, the garlic roasted catfish is braised catfish, but the amount of garlic is relatively large, the catfish should be cut into large sections, and the whole garlic should be fried in an oil pan, and then add an appropriate amount of water, simmer with the catfish, and bake the soup dry.
The fifth dish is also a dish that Tang Fan has been thinking about for a long time - braised vole!
Tang Fan's career of eating voles started after Fu Jian ate braised voles once, which was a master's specialty!
That taste, until now Tang Fan is still a little obsessed, and in order to be able to eat delicious braised voles often, he begged the master for a long time, coupled with the money offensive, this learned the practice of braised voles, although the old man finally kept a hand, but Tang Fan also learned a few essences, the biggest highlight is the boiled eggs, the boiled eggs are put in the braised vole, soaked in the soup, the taste, beautiful!
The eggs are boiled and peeled, the meat is boiled in water to remove the bloodstains, oil is put in the pot, and the rock sugar is fried to color the vole meat, and then various ingredients such as pepper, pepper, star anise, onion and garlic are added, and then boiled water and eggs are added after stir-frying, and then after an hour and a half from high heat to low heat, the fifth braised vole will be completed!
And the last dish, and the simplest dish, is - boiled prawns.
River prawns were originally suitable for stir-frying, such as stir-fried river prawns with leeks, fried prawns and so on.
But the size of this otherworldly river shrimp is too big, and it can catch up with the sea shrimp, and it is obviously a little inappropriate to use them for frying, so Tang Fan directly treats them as sea shrimp, and after boiling, adjust a bowl of sauce, you can directly peel the shell and dip it to eat, which is simple and trouble-free.
…………
For the sake of a big meal, Tang Fan kept busy in the kitchen.
Rao is based on his cooking skills, and several large pots are boiled together, but it took more than two hours to make these six dishes and one soup.
However, the time is worth it, and when all the dishes are out of the pot, a table full of delicious dishes with all the colors and aromas, that kind of visual enjoyment and inner satisfaction, for a chef and foodie, it is really beautiful!
Not only was Tang Fan's large dining table full of dishes, but he also specially brought a big chair for Erdan, and used seven small plates to hold a little bit of each dish, and arranged them in an arched shape in front of Erdan's special chair, which was regarded as a small version of the banquet.
It's just that in Erdan's small banquet, the crab is full of crab claws and crab claws, and the prawns are headed, but Tang Fan didn't peel off the shrimp shell on his body, anyway, Erdan's teeth are good, and when he eats it, he will be used as a calcium supplement, and other dishes didn't cut corners, Tang Fan even put the head of the crucian carp in the soup bowl of Erdan.
In the face of some unscrupulous fathers, the second egg doesn't care at all.
Because of the 'dog planing' incident in the afternoon, it still had some grievances in its heart, and it didn't like to deal with Tang Fan at all, but when it saw the six dishes and one soup in front of it, and smelled the fragrance of various temptations in its nose, its small grievances immediately disappeared, leaving only its big eyes and a small mouth with saliva.
Prepare a small banquet for Erdan, and watching Erdan happily slam on the plate, Tang Fan smiled, and his eyes turned to the big banquet in front of him.
On the table, six dishes and one soup are arranged neatly in a large circle.
Steamed hairy crabs covered in red.
Stir-fried soft-shelled turtle with blue and red colors.
Golden crispy black fish steak.
Garlic-flavored garlic-grilled catfish.
Braised voles with a red color.

On the table, the green and red are golden, and the soup is fragrant with cabbage, which looks so attractive.
"This is the life of a rich man! Luxury, too extravagant!"
Tang Fan rubbed his hands, and stretched out his chopsticks towards the delicacies on the table with a full of light in his eyes......
"Let's eat!!"
