Chapter 102 Potato Stew Hare

Meng Chuan was surrounded by everyone to the outpost, the outpost was very warm, and before Meng Chuan could speak, Fang Tao said: "This house is still warm, this is built by the eight of us brick by brick." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Lao Du and Tie Dan almost laughed out of internal injuries when they heard Fang Tao's opening remarks, Meng Chuan nodded and said: "Squad Leader Fang, this is indeed warm, there is at least twenty degrees here, what kind of fuel do you usually use to keep warm." ”

Squad leader Fang said proudly: "We have solar panels on the roof, and there is a wind power generation on the tuyere next to it, and we also have coal and cow dung here. ”

Meng Chuan was surprised: "So advanced? ”

Lao Du said: "Second Lieutenant Meng, twenty or thirty border posts in our regiment have already popularized this system, and now solar power generation and wind power generation have become standard. ”

Meng Chuan praised: "The country is really strong, and the lives of the soldiers are getting better and better. ”

Squad Leader Fang said: "Second Lieutenant Meng, don't just stand, Xiao Li, go and take out the two hares you hunted in the morning, and make a good meal for Second Lieutenant Meng to taste." ”

Meng Chuan hadn't done wild game yet, and he really wanted to sit down by himself, so he said: "Squad Leader Fang, let me do these two hares, I am in charge of cooking in our battalion, and I am in charge of cooking. ”

When squad leader Fang heard that Meng Chuan was a cooking soldier, he immediately said: "That's too troublesome Second Lieutenant Meng, don't you know, we all take turns to cook, one or two are two knives, cooking is really not delicious, and I'm afraid of neglecting you, so, your chef, I'll give you a hand." ”

Meng Chuan smiled: "That's good, it just so happens that I have a lot of confusion about cooking on the plateau, and I also need to ask you for advice." ”

Xiao Li quickly brought in the two hares hanging outside the wall, Meng Chuan took the hare and looked at it, the meat was very tight, if it was really done, it would definitely be a delicious food.

Meng Chuan said to the squad leader: "Then I'll make a potato stewed hare, although the hare is delicious, but the meat is less and the bones are hard, if the ten of us eat meat alone, it is not enough to eat, and it just so happens that the potatoes are also resistant to stew, so I will stew them together." ”

Squad Leader Fang nodded and said, "Okay, I'll ask Xiao Li to get the potatoes." Then he smiled and said: "Squad Leader Meng really understands us, although our conditions here have improved a lot, but because of the inconvenience of the road, I still can't eat vegetables in winter, I have been a soldier for so many years, and winter has always been the same four things, potatoes, radish, cabbage, canned food, and now I don't feel anything about eating." ”

Meng Chuan also walked all the way for two hours, and he also knew that it was impossible to send a special supply staff to the company every day to carry fresh vegetables, so even though the food subsidy here is high, there are still only so many types of ingredients.

Meng Chuan thought for a while and said: "Squad Leader Fang, although we are a plateau here, do you say it is possible to build a greenhouse, I see that the sunshine intensity here is not low, although it is cold, but if it is managed properly, vegetables may not be self-sufficient in winter." ”

Squad leader Fang also conceived about this situation, but the cost required is not something that Lianli can afford, especially the plateau soil, if the greenhouse is really built one day, because of the soil, it will be too wasteful, and no one will improve the soil, what can be planted in the plateau soil here, what can not be planted, no one knows at all, the most important point, and the most important point is the problem of water, the soldiers take water in winter to get some snow from the outside, turn it into water and then filter, In the summer, I went to the ravine to pick up the water, and I didn't have time to get water for the vegetables.

Moreover, it is a plateau area, and the land is frozen for most of the year, so even if you want to experiment, you can't do it, and it is definitely difficult.

After listening to Squad Leader Fang's words, Meng Chuan said: "There are indeed a lot of problems that need to be overcome, so let's cook first, and after I finish studying this time, I will go back to check the information, and if I find out the relevant information, I will write to you." ”

Squad Leader Fang was very moved when he heard that Meng Chuan was so concerned about the lives of the soldiers at his border post, and nodded: "Okay, let's cook first, Xiao Li, bring some more dried chili peppers, let's let Second Lieutenant Meng have a good meal." ”

At the border post, dried chili peppers are a must-have food, because it's too cold outside, and if you don't eat some spicy food to drive away the cold, you really can't stand it, and if you patrol outside, eating some spicy peppers can also warm up your body.

Since everyone likes to eat spicy, Meng Chuan will also put spicy food this time, and after walking all the way, he really can't stand the cold.

At this time, it was almost dark, and Lao Du and Tie Dan couldn't go back, so they could only rest at the outpost for a night, slowly, and just rub the potatoes and roasted hares made by Meng Chuan.

After soaking in water, it is best to take boiling water and filter the blood, because on the plateau, you can only boil the water in a pressure cooker, so Meng Chuan threw the rabbit directly into the pressure cooker, pressed it, and pressed it to press the blood out.

Because stewing things on the plateau, it is impossible to add a flavor like a flavor on the plain, once the pressure cooker is pressed, the lid of the pot can not be opened, so Meng Chuan has to prepare spices in advance, thinking that he likes to eat spicy here, so dry chili peppers are indispensable, and these spices such as onions, ginger and garlic are indispensable.

Soy sauce and vinegar should also be put a little, which can play a slight role in coloring and seasoning, so that the stewed soup is more delicious.

At this time, the pressure cooker also made a loud sound, and Meng Chuan said: "Squad Leader Fang, you take down the pressure cooker, put the ordinary pot on the shelf, and I will stir-fry the spices." ”

Once the oil temperature rises, it is definitely more than 100 degrees, so there is no problem at all with stir-frying spices.

After Meng Chuan felt the temperature of the oil, he directly put the prepared chili peppers, onions, ginger and garlic into it, the oil touched these spices and splashed directly, and the fire entered the pot along the oil, Meng Chuan took advantage of the situation and took the spoon, and the taste of the spices came out suddenly, these spices could not be fried for too long, as soon as the fragrance came out, Meng Chuan hurried out of the pot.

At this time, the squad leader also fished out the rabbit meat, cut it into pieces, and the potatoes were also cut into pieces by Xiao Li early, and after the preparation, Meng saw that everything was ready, so he re-added the water, and then poured the fragrant spices into the pot with a piece of oil, and finally put in the cut rabbit meat and potato pieces, after adding soy sauce, vinegar and salt, he covered the pressure cooker and pressed it up.

Because there is only one stove, the staple food has not been made yet, and it is inconvenient to steam steamed buns on the plateau, so people like the outpost generally eat rice, one is fast, and the other is that they don't use any cooking utensils.

Soon the pressure cooker made a clanging sound, and the fragrance of potato stewed rabbit meat suddenly permeated the entire outpost, squad leader Fang smelled the fragrance of this dish, swallowed his saliva and said: "Second Lieutenant Meng is not a professional, the cooking is much better than our two knives, and this smell can make people make several bowls of rice." ”

Meng Chuan smiled: "Okay, I'll steam more rice later, and definitely let everyone have a full meal." ”
