The dishes made with it have a very common lemon refreshing and refreshing aroma, and it can also make the dishes more tender, especially when used to make fish, Ye Ruoyi and Xiaoying almost didn't eat their tongues at that time, and the delicious food will never be forgotten.

Later, Ye Ruoyi learned that this spice called lemongrass in Thailand is also available in China, called lemongrass, which is a perennial herb that is scattered in hot, rainy and sunny areas.

Citronella has a strange lemon aroma and can not only be used in cooking dishes; It can also be used as medicine, which has the effect of analgesia and asthma; It can also make fragrances, repel insects and mosquitoes, refresh the mind, purify the room, and soften the skin.

What makes Ye Xipo happiest is that the people here obviously don't know the function of this citronella grass, at least Ye Xipo has lived here for more than ten years, and he has never seen anyone cook with it.

No one has it, this is the secret recipe!

Ye Xipo was very happy, and on the way to the rocky beach in Hewan, he paid careful attention to it, and this citronella grass was really everywhere here.

Although most of the leaves are a little yellow, the stems of citronella are very tender and juicy, and all of them have a strong fragrance, which is good for spices.

The two brothers were on the river beach for an hour, caught seven big fish of two or three catties, and six small fish weighing more than one catty, and seeing that it was time for breakfast, Ye Xipo stood up and said: "Fourth brother, let's go back, we have to pick lemongrass stalks on the way." ”

"Well, third brother, I found out that after you fell unconscious, the fishing was even more ferocious than before."

Ye Xipo smiled, Ye Xipo in this life has never stopped fishing every day since he was eight years old, and I was also a senior camping lover in my previous life, and I am also good at wild fishing.

The two brothers carried the fish home with great interest, and on the way they picked a large handful of citronella stalks, tied them with straw ropes and carried them home.

"Xiao Ye Saburo, has your illness been cured, you have to be careful when you go to the edge of the waterhole in the future."

"Xiao Ye Saburo, I went fishing again, and I caught so much?"

At this time, a lot of people gathered at the entrance of the village, and when they saw Ye Xipo's brothers coming, they all greeted each other with a smile, and Ye Xipo and Ye Hao also greeted everyone very politely: "Wait for the fish to be cooked at home, everyone will come and taste it." ”

Everyone shouted loudly, and when the two brothers walked over and looked at the backs of the two of them, the few people who had just greeted each other quietly shook their heads and sighed: "What a good baby, Juan Xiu is handsome, it makes people like it when they look at it, but it's a pity that the family is exiled here." ”

Another person said: "Yes, the Ye family is a good person, especially Xiao Ye Saburo, who has been smart and sensible since he was a child, and when he was still very young, a Taoist priest met him and said that this son will become a great weapon when he grows up, which is unspeakably expensive!" ”

Someone in the crowd immediately nodded and said, "Just say it, let's just say that this time Xiao Ye Saburo fell into a waterhole and was in a coma for three days, if you want to change to someone else, you will definitely not be able to save it, but Xiao Ye Saburo said that it would be good, isn't this God blessed?" ”

When they were talking, Ye Ren's eyes widened and asked, "Do you want to make grilled fish fillets to make money?" Will this work? ”

Seeing that Ye Ren was a little suspicious, and Ye Kun and the others also looked suspicious, Ye Xipo hurriedly nodded and affirmed: "Of course it can be done, but I will think of other methods, uncle, don't worry, I will definitely earn seventeen taels of gold in fifteen days." ”

Seeing Ye Xipo's resolute eyes, and thinking that Ye Xipo had been ignited by the old ancestor Taishang Laojun, Ye Ren also nodded, and gave it a try.

"And what do you say you want to do?"

Ye Xipo had already thought of a set of plans when he was fishing, and said confidently: "Uncle, this grilled fish fillet is very simple, but it must have an oven or oven.

I drew a picture, and the second uncle and Aya first built a simple oven with bricks, and now I first use a charcoal fire to roast it.

When it was done, the uncle took the grilled fish fillet to Cao Lizheng and asked him to sell it.

After we earned seventeen taels of gold, the business was handed over to the village to do, and everyone shared the money. ”

Seeing that several people were obviously lacking in self-confidence, Ye Xipo planned to make the grilled fish fillet first and speak with facts.

Just do it, the family started together, Ye Wei, Ye Kun, and Ye Xuan began to move bricks to the yard to build an oven.

Ye Xipo, his stepmother Shi, and three aunts and aunts started together, disposing of the dozens of catties of fish they had caught and cutting them into pieces for later use.

Wash the stalks of lemongrass and cut them into cubes, then scoop them into a thick juice in a stone mortar with green onions, ginger and wild coriander.

Ye Xipo then ran back to the room and took out a non-stick aluminum pan, grilled fish net tongs, red pepper segments, chili sauce, a small bottle of salt and a small bottle of oil from his backpack.

Everyone thought it was very strange, but fortunately, Ye Ren was there, and he explained it with the old immortal, and then ordered that he was not allowed to come in.

Add the snow-white fine salt to the spice sauce, and then add a small amount of chili sauce, stir evenly, and the marinated fish is ready.

"Auntie, auntie, now we will smear all the fish fillets with fragrant sauce."

The five of them started together, and soon all the fish fillets were marinated, and Ye Xipo began to make spicy red oil.

Thinking about how people in this period should not be able to eat spicy, Ye Xipo decided to be slightly spicy.

Heat the oil in the non-stick aluminum pan, fry the green onions, ginger and lemongrass stems to make it fragrant, change the heat to the lowest after removing, wait for the oil temperature to drop, add peppercorns and dried chili peppers and boil gradually.

Of course, the chili seeds in the dried chili peppers are picked out in advance and kept as seeds.

In the fragrance of the house, the spicy red oil is boiled, and everyone smells this fragrance for the first time, and they sneeze into a room, but they are addicted.

Everything was ready, and Ye Xipo began to grill the fish fillet.

"Originally, it was best to grill the fish fillet in the oven, and the sauce had to be marinated for at least half an hour, but now I can't control it."

Ye Xipo spreads out the grilled fish net tongs so that he can grill more fillets at the same time.

Then they asked someone to find a small brush, brush a thin layer on the grilled fish net, and brush the oil on both sides of the fish fillet, and patiently grilled it over a charcoal fire.

After a short time, a special fragrance began to fill the grilled fish net, the fragrance was very strong, and the whole family looked at it, and couldn't help but salivate.

After about six or seven minutes, the marinated fish fillets slowly turned golden brown, and the fragrance became more and more fragrant, and Ye Xipo heard the sound of swallowing saliva one after another.

Ye Xipo used chopsticks to put the fish fillet on the plate, brought it to Ye Ren, and said, "Uncle, you taste it first, see what it tastes like?" ”

The family looked at Ye Ren with bright eyes, and kept swallowing saliva, Ye Ren didn't lose his demeanor, pinched a piece and looked at it in front of him, and sniffed it in front of his nose, then he tore off a third with his teeth and ate it slowly.
