Chapter 512 - The Practice of Braised Prawns in Oil and Mexican Kiwei Prawns

Hearing Ye Chui's words, everyone was stunned, this super chef competition, in many eyes, is actually a confrontation between Ye Chui and Manny, both of them are undoubtedly the ones who can stand on the final table in the end, however, Ye Chui has to make a bet with Manny, betting on the win or loss of Tuke and Jim, Tuke won Ye Chui and withdrew from the game, and Jim won Ye Chui and directly withdrew from the game.

Isn't that a bit too much fun?

Everyone looked at Ye Trai in surprise, thinking that he was joking, but they couldn't see any joking on Ye Trai's face, he was very calm, and there was a slight smile on the corner of his mouth.

Manny showed a nervous and hesitant expression, and after a moment he snorted coldly, "Why should I bet with you?" Hum! ”

"Looks like you don't dare?" Ye Trai laughed quietly, and then he said to Tuke, "It seems that your senior brother doesn't have much confidence in you, and thinks that you will definitely lose the match with Jim." ”

Tuke's eyes widened as he looked at Manny.

Manny was a little anxious: "I don't have ......"

"So we bet?" Ye Chui interrupted him.

Manny: "......"

It was clear that Manny was not willing to take the risk, even though he thought that Tuke had a good chance of winning Jim, but he still refused to make this bet with Leaf.

The host came here to urge the two contestants to enter the arena, Tuke walked into the arena with a somewhat ugly face, he has always been very confident in his cooking skills, thinking that only Manny is stronger than himself in this world, so he has never put other people in his eyes, Manny refuses to bet with Ye Tuo. It's not unreasonable, who will participate in such a crazy bet?

However, think so. But Tuk still had an uncontrollable thought in his heart: Manny didn't think he could win Jim!

Under the influence of this thought, his original self-confidence suddenly decreased a lot, and he didn't have much confidence in the dishes he was about to cook......

On the other hand, Jim's heart was full of emotion, he didn't expect Ye Trai to be so solemn to him, in Ye Trai's eyes, it turned out that his cooking skills were so high. Just for Ye Chui's trust, he must also win this game!

Manny watched the two of them go to the arena and glanced at Ye Chui coldly. With a snort, he walked to the side and stopped talking.

Here, Tang Shanshan tugged Ye Hang's arm: "Boss, you were so bold just now!" So Jim is so powerful in your eyes. ”

"No, I don't think Jim can really win that tuke." Ye Chui shook his head. Exposed to the questioning eyes of the crowd. Ye Chui smiled and said, "That's why I did this on purpose, putting pressure on Tuke, that Tuke obviously admires Manny very much, if Manny doesn't dare to bet with me, it will indirectly prove that Manny has no confidence in him, and this can also affect his own confidence." ”

The others looked at Ye Trai with some surprise, but they didn't expect Ye Trai's bet with Manny to have such a deep meaning. Dong Youyou couldn't help but ask, "What if Manny agrees to bet with you and Jim accidentally loses?" ”

"In that case...... Ye Hang shrugged his shoulders, "I'll have to pay the bill." Anyway, this bet is just a verbal talk, and he can't let the Emperor Eater ban me from participating in the competition because of this, right? ”

Everyone: "......"

Well, I didn't expect Ye Chui to have such a cunning side.

Jim and Tuke's cooking competition soon began, Mexican kiwei shrimp vs braised prawns.

The scientific name of the shrimp is called Penaeus vannamei knife, also known as the new shrimp of the unicorn.

The shrimp used by Tuke are all freshly caught, medium size is chosen, first peeled and gut removed, and boiled in boiling water until half-cooked.

There are various ways to make the shrimp around the world, but the most special part of the Mexican method is to use lemon juice - use the best lime, squeeze the juice directly into the half-cooked shrimp, so that the lemon juice is best to drown all the shrimp, in addition to adding some tomato sauce, hot sauce, rosemary and other spices, and then gently rub your hands to marinate.

Marinated with lemon juice, even raw shrimp will become red and fluttering when marinated with lemon juice, as if cooked, and the unique flavor of Mexican shrimp is the unique sour taste of marinating with lemon juice.

When marinating the shrimp, Tuke began to prepare a variety of side dishes, including onions, tomatoes, cucumbers, and diced avocado, and mix these vegetables together, and pour the seasoning side dishes into the plate after the shrimp are marinated.

A plate looks full of seafood temptres. This is the end of the puzzled Mexican kiwei shrimp.

The dish isn't too difficult to prepare, but it requires meticulous touch, and the whole process is filled with a fresh and natural feeling.

Jim's braised prawns, on the other hand, are obviously a different feeling.

Braised prawns in oil is a famous Chinese dish with a tender and slightly sweet taste, soft flesh, and easy to digest.

The shrimp used in braised prawns can be ordinary grass shrimp or crayfish, but in fact, the most authentic method is to use crayfish from northeastern China.

The most peculiar thing about this shrimp is the pair of huge pincer-like forelimbs, if you accidentally get caught in your hand, you may see blood directly.

To cook this kind of shrimp, in order to maintain the flavor and do not need to cut off the double tongs, only need to peel off the intestines, marinate it slightly, and then put oil in the pot and add a little oil to burn seven or eight mature, put in the green onion and ginger, and then put in the shrimp, fry it on both sides with low heat, so that the shrimp meat changes color, and the red oil is fried, the shrimp at this time has become bright red, which can arouse people's appetite - if it is not the wild shrimp but the artificially bred shrimp, it is difficult to fry the red oil at this time.

At this time, cooking wine, salt, sugar, and some water are poured in, and then it is simmered.

The stewed prawns in oil can be said to be at this step.

Simmer for about another minute or two, then add some water starch to thicken at the end, and of course, the most important point, which is to add a little rice vinegar to the pot after removing from the heat.

A plate of braised prawns in oil is complete.

Pour it into a plate, arrange the crayfish in a spiral shape, and the dish is done.

It just so happened that the Mexican kiwei shrimp on Tuke's side had also been completed, and the two of them walked to the judges' table at the same time with the shrimp in their hands and put the two dishes on the table.

One of the three judges is Japanese, and the other two are Indian gourmets with slightly darker skin.

The two Indian gourmets had been discussing in a low voice, and the Japanese seemed to be unable to go with them, looking rather cold, and the two plates of delicious dishes were laid out in front of them, and the three gourmets were quickly attracted to the attention and began to taste.

"I don't know if Jim's braised prawns are as good as that Tuke's Mexican shrimp?" The people around Ye Chui were a little worried, it seemed that the braised prawns made by Jim were delicious, but I don't know if this typical Chinese dish can impress the three gourmets. (To be continued......)
