There are many ways to make fragrant pot shrimp, of course, there are more and less side dishes, Meng Chuan usually likes to serve three kinds of dishes when making fragrant pot shrimp, so that the side dishes will not be too few, and it seems that there is nothing in the pot.

Second, it won't be too much, absorbing the flavor that originally belonged to shrimp. After all, the main dish is prawns, and too many side dishes are not beautiful.

Here Meng Chuan has prepared some mushrooms, celery and lotus root slices, of course, he can also prepare some other ingredients, such as potato chips and the like, which is completely up to the individual.

Meng Chuan likes to eat spicy food, so this fragrant pot shrimp, Meng Chuan needs to prepare more seasonings, Pixian bean paste This is indispensable, making dishes with spicy flavor, this is the top priority.

Then prepare some green onions, ginger, garlic, peppercorns and dried chili peppers on it.

Boil the water first, here Meng Chuan has to give the side dishes through the water first, which is a very important step, because river fresh foods such as prawns can't be cooked for too long, and they can be cooked for four or five minutes. If you cook it for a little longer, the meat will get older, which will affect the taste to some extent.

When the water boils, add the sliced lotus root, the sliced celery and the torn mushrooms.

The side dishes are easy to cook, so cook on high heat for three minutes and wait until the ingredients change color slightly, then they can be removed.

Then I started to make shrimp, shrimp can also be boiled in water, and it can also be fried in oil, but with Meng Chuan's experience in making shrimp for so long, I think it will taste better if it is fried in oil.

Moreover, shrimp does not absorb oil, and even if it is fried in oil, it will not feel greasy when eating.

The second is that the shrimp cooked in water will feel significantly smaller, and the shrimp that could have been cooked in one plate can only be filled in half a plate after being cooked in water.

Heat the oil.

Because when the sweet and sour loin was fried just now, there was a lot of oil left, so Meng Chuan used this directly, the oil does not need to pour too much, two large spoons are enough, because the shrimp does not absorb oil, so this oil must be enough.

After the oil is hot, pour in the river shrimp prepared by the cooking squad leader, this river shrimp can be marinated for ten minutes in advance, so that the taste will be better, and the pickling method is also very simple, put a spoonful of light soy sauce and cooking wine.

Because the cooking squad leader is an old cook, these most basic things don't need Meng Chuan to say, and he does it neatly.

The blue river shrimp itself, as soon as it touches the hot oil, the skin quickly turns red, and it becomes very attractive.

At this time, there is still a little oil left in the pot, no need to pour or wash the pot, directly add a large spoon of bean paste and stir-fry, because Pixian bean paste has more water, unlike onions, ginger, garlic, peppercorns, dried chili peppers, which are relatively dry spices that are easy to paste, so you can wait for the bean paste to boil out the red oil, and then put other spices.

Boil the red oil in the bean paste over medium heat, stir it slightly for one or twenty times, and the red oil will precipitate, and then Meng Chuan immediately added green onions, ginger, garlic, peppercorns and dried chili peppers.

These spices become extremely spicy under the fragrance of hot oil, and when paired with red bean paste red oil, they look very attractive.

The cooking squad leader also opened his eyes again, although the operation of stir-frying spices is a necessary foundation for a cooking soldier, but the heat is difficult to master.

Although he has been a cooking soldier for more than ten years, he thinks that he still can't catch up with Meng Chuan in terms of his mastery of fire. I can't believe that Meng Chuan, the director of special training, is young and has to be reused by the chief, and he can have such advanced cooking skills, which is really not simple.

At this time, the aroma of the fragrant spices also got into the noses of the other cooking soldiers, although they all knew that Meng Chuan's cooking skills were very superb, but when they smelled this fragrance, they still unconsciously glanced at Meng Chuan.

Meng Chuan ignored them, and immediately poured in the freshly fished river prawns after the spices were stir-fried, stir-fried a few times, and then added the mushrooms, lotus root slices and celery that had been blanched.

Then continue to stir-fry on high heat for two minutes, and finally add a spoonful of salt and chicken essence to taste, and you can remove from the pan and serve.

As soon as the plate was loaded, the voice of the high political commissar came, "Director Meng, how is the food done here?" ”

When the officers and soldiers of the cooking squad saw that the political commissar Gao was coming, they stood up one after another, "Political Commissar Gao." ”

Political Commissar Gao waved his hand, "You guys don't care about me, you can do whatever you want." ”

Meng Chuan looked at the three dishes he had just made and shook his head, "In a while, I will stir-fry two vegetarian dishes and cook a soup, three meats, two vegetables and one soup, which is the standard meal of Tepei." ”

Because of the high standard of food in Tepei, six dishes are not excessive, the officers and soldiers on the ship, the standard meal is six dishes, which is completely in line with the regulations, but the high political commissar whispered: "Director Meng, why don't I let the cooking squad leader fry a few dishes, six dishes are the standard meals of our officers and soldiers, and these are the brigade commander and those old doctors in the hospital, it is not good to be lazy." ”

Meng Chuan waved his hand, "I know the brigade political commissar very well, he is a practical chief, he will not be confined to this kind of subsection, when he followed me to squat, he ate a lot of compressed biscuits, and I never heard him complain." ”

"As for the doctors in those hospitals, they don't need to focus on it, they eat whatever the brigade political commissar eats, is this still snubbing them?"

That's true, but isn't the relationship between you and the doctor tense now, and they have a little power now, so if you find fault, isn't it uncomfortable?

Meng Chuan looked at the political commissar Gao who wanted to stop talking, and immediately said: "Gao Li, you are the political commissar of Tepei, I hope you have the spirit of Tepei, don't always think about being afraid of offending this and offending that, sleek is not suitable for Tepei, only excellent ability is the foundation of Tepei's attention by the leaders." ”

When Gao Li heard this, he also realized that he was a little too worried, always afraid that outsiders would find fault with Tepei, and now he heard Meng Chuan's reminder, and said solemnly: "Yes, Director Meng is right." Then I'll go out first and beckon the chief to take a seat, and you should hurry up a little, don't make them wait for a long time. ”

Meng Chuan laughed, "Don't worry, the two vegetarian dishes will be cooked quickly, and the soup will be directly boiled with the bone broth that has been boiled for a long time in Tepei, and it will not delay things." By the way, have you been contacted by the instructor with the training? ”

Political Commissar Gao shook his head, "I haven't contacted yet, it should be that the training task is relatively heavy, and I haven't had time to contact it." ”

Meng Chuan was much relieved after hearing this, "It's good that there is no contact, if there is a soldier with a serious fever, the instructor will definitely contact us in time." Now there has been no contact, it proves that the fighter is recovering physically, you don't have to worry. ”

After listening to Meng Chuan's analysis, Political Commissar Gao's brows suddenly unraveled, "I also had such thoughts at the beginning, but I don't understand the situation, so I can only prepare for the worst, and now I hear you say this, I am sure." Okay, then you can continue to cook, and I'll go out and greet the chiefs. ”
