Chapter 4 Pan-fried pork chops with sweet and sour peppers

Three-star chef and one of the toughest inspectors in the French gastronomic rating inspectorate, known as the Terminator Elena. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

For her, Li Xiaoran, who has decided to enter the food festival, naturally will not be unrecognizable.

A three-star chef is definitely rare in the world.

Even Kojiro Shinomiya, a magician known as a vegetable cook, is only a four-star chef in French cuisine magazines.

Looking at Yelena who walked in with a blank face, Planck couldn't help but tremble in his heart.

Although for Li Xiaoran's strength, these days are in his eyes.

But the name of the person in front of her is too big, and the entire catering industry in Paris can be praised under her, no, even if it maintains the original rank, it is only two or three percent.

How could your own restaurant be so unlucky to meet such a person?

"Where's the chef of your restaurant?" Ignoring the frightened Planck, Yelena looked around and frowned slightly.

According to the information, the chef of this restaurant is not here.

The chef was not in the store at the specified time, which already made Yelena's heart a little unhappy.

Is this a sacred thing like restaurant ratings, child's play?

"The original chef has resigned, and here is the new chef of the captain's restaurant." Hearing Yelena's words, Li Xiaoran stepped forward and said with a smile.

Hearing Li Xiaoran's words, Yelena didn't show any surprise.

It was a few subordinates behind him who showed surprised expressions.

Looking at Li Xiaoran's age, he is only seventeen or eighteen years old, is he already the head chef of an A-level restaurant?

As for Yelena, she doesn't care about Li Xiaoran's age, at such an age, don't say the chef of an A-level restaurant.

Even Yelena, who has reached the star level, is not unseen.

"Then the rating begins, please hurry up and prepare the food." Elena doesn't care who the chef is, she just needs to evaluate the dishes that are served at the end.

Hearing Yelena's words, Li Xiaoran nodded slightly, entered the kitchen, and began to prepare his own dishes.

"This is pork chops, is it made from pork chops?" Looking at the ingredients prepared by Li Xiaoran in the kitchen, a look of surprise appeared on Yelena's face.

Compared to pork chops, shouldn't the average restaurant be more about steak?

But despite her surprise, Yelena didn't say much.

Whether it is pork chop or steak, as long as the final taste can satisfy the diner and satisfy himself, then it is qualified.

Otherwise, even the best ingredients won't add a single point.

"Marinating from scratch? But there's not so much time. Looking at Li Xiaoran's movements, Yelena said secretly in her heart.

"Great knife work, but don't he have too many side dishes?"

"I guess it has a specific effect."

The inspector who followed Yelena also whispered.

And Li Xiaoran, who is in the kitchen, has been completely deposited in the preparation of dishes at this moment.

First of all, cut the pork skin on the pork chops so that they will not curl in the pan, and let them fully absorb the flavor so that they are evenly heated when frying.

"A pinch of salt, black peppercorns." Sprinkle the prepared ingredients evenly over the pork chops.

Then Li Xiaoran put his hands on the pork chops and gently beat them to let the seasoning stick to the pork chops.

After the pork chops were processed, Li Xiaoran began to prepare the sauce.

This is also the main sauce in this dish.

Combined with pork chops, it brings out the flavor of the pork chops.

Sour bell peppers, onions, cut them, put them in the pot and start frying, and after a certain amount of heat, Li Xiaoran poured the red wine vinegar on the side into it.

"How could it be, the sour bell pepper turned color so quickly and softened."

The inspector on the side said with some surprise.

Although I didn't look closely, the fragrance in the air said it all.

"The magic of sugar, he put sugar in the sautéed bell peppers." Yelena on the side said with interest.

Some small details, or small experiences, that are not reflected in the recipe.

As the dish progresses, the aroma in the air grows stronger.

Smelling the scent, the inspector on the side already felt hungry.

My tongue is already looking forward to the next food.

"Please taste, pan-fried pork chops with sweet and sour peppers." With a smile on his face, Li Xiaoran walked out with a plate.

Bright red sweet and sour peppers are paired with onions, and the pork chops are fried until golden brown, exuding an enticing aroma.

"The heat is perfectly mastered, and the gravy is perfectly concentrated in the pork chops." Gently slicing a pork chop with a knife, Yelena brought it to her own eyes to observe.

Gently place the pork chops into your mouth.

The moment her teeth touched the pork chop, Yelena's whole body trembled.

Tender, crispy, fragrant, and the whole mouth is completely occupied by the flavor of pork chops.

His whole person seemed to be placed on the cradle bed, shaking constantly.

Especially with the side dish of sour bell pepper, it completely stimulates the taste of pork chops.

The combination of the two is simply seamless.

The combination of sour bell pepper and pork chops not only makes people not feel a trace of oiliness, but feels refreshing and lightly sweet.

"This sweet taste, basil and thyme?" Raising her head, Yelena looked at Li Xiaoran.

"It's basil and thyme, I add basil when I fry the sweet and sour peppers, and I put thyme in the pork chops." Li Xiaoran smiled and explained to Yelena.

"I see, basil is added to make the sweet and sour peppers even sweeter, and the thyme and pork chops add this aroma to the extreme." Hearing Li Xiaoran's words, Yelena nodded lightly.

"This is a dish that can be added to the recipe of a one-star restaurant, although it is still far from the top one-star cuisine, but it is already good, there is no doubt that your test has passed, if you can make more than five dishes of this level, then you can apply and be promoted to a star restaurant." After tasting the pork chops, the rare Yelena showed a smile on her face and said to Li Xiaoran and Planck, who were already standing on the side.

"But it seems that to apply for a star rating, you need to have a one-star chef." Li Xiaoran looked at Yelena and said.

"You haven't made it to a one-star chef yet?" Somewhat curious, Yelena said to Li Xiaoran.

"Actually, it's not just a star, I'm not even an A because I didn't even take the test in this area." Touching his nose, Li Xiaoran said to Yelena.

Hearing Li Xiaoran's words, Yelena, including the inspectors on the side, were all stunned.

You must know that there are very few people who have such cooking skills, but they do not participate in the chef rating, no, it should be said that there are almost none.

"Well, if you're not kidding, next Wednesday the Paris Cuisine Department will start a one-star chef evaluation, and if you want, I can recommend you to participate, and if you can pass, you will directly become a one-star chef." Looking at Li Xiaoran's face and making sure that he wasn't joking, Yelena spoke.

At the same time, he took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to Li Xiaoran.
