Although I want to learn to cook, where can I get the money for the seasoning? This is a problem, the easiest thing is to come out by yourself, this is fine, but considering the risk of exposure, I think it's better to forget it. All that's left is to ask your parents for it, or save some pocket money. Pocket money, save for two days, not enough to cook and toss once, it's too slow.

Then you can only think of asking for it from your parents, and just open your mouth and say that you can learn to cook? It's certainly not good to do, and it may lead to limiting yourself. Chen Yuanyuan thought about it carefully, and had a plan that he felt feasible, the first step was to let her parents agree with her, thinking that her cooking was not bad, what they liked to eat, Chen Yuanyuan still had a bit of a spectrum in his heart.

'Fried shredded potatoes', a stir-fry that parents can accept, the raw materials are cheap, and the knife work requirements are not high (it doesn't matter if the cut is relatively large).

Chen Yuanyuan bought some potatoes with pocket money (other materials are available at home), washed them in water, then scraped the potato skins, looked at the potatoes that were quite neat, and picked up the kitchen knife.

This is the first time in this life to hold a kitchen knife, I feel a little different, Chen Yuanyuan originally planned to cut large pieces to practice her hands, but now she has other thoughts.

Try to cut two knives on the cutting board, Chen Yuanyuan gave birth to the feeling of the extension of the body, the knife is the extension of the body, the use is very flexible, as long as the left hand can hold the potato, the right hand can cut out a very thin slice with the knife, and the speed is not slow.

Is this proficiency with a kitchen knife also considered a talent? Born with MAX (highest level)? Chen Yuanyuan felt puzzled, but after thinking about it for a while, he stopped being entangled, at least he was developing in a better place.

Since this dish is not a difficult one, the others are even more of a piece of cake. Cut the remaining potatoes into shreds, soak them in clean water, cut some chopped green onions, turn on the gas, light the fire, put a little oil in the pot, and press the range hood.

When it's almost over, put the shredded potatoes and chopped green onions in the pot, stir-fry over high heat, put some soy sauce, refined salt, monosodium glutamate and other condiments into it, fry it for a while, get out of the pot, and put it on a plate.

Because it was the first test, I didn't fry much, so I picked up a little with chopsticks and put it in my mouth...... It's a little light, you don't have to eat it with rice, after eating a small plate, there are still some shredded potatoes that are not fried, so Chen Yuanyuan wrote down the steps of stir-frying, the amount of raw materials, and the amount of condiments in the newly bought notebook.

After that, I got the potatoes again and continued practicing. Until Chen Yuanyuan couldn't eat anymore, at this time there were several pages densely written in the notebook, the results were quite gratifying, and a lot of problems were changed, now a pot of shredded potatoes can be fried, the saltiness is moderate, the taste is good, and what can be taken is let others try it.

When the parents came home in the evening, they found Chen Yuanyuan waiting for them at the dining table in the living room, and there was a plate of shredded potatoes on the table.

Chen Yuanyuan did what his father ordered, put the chopsticks on the meal, and waited for his parents to clean up and eat together. The dishes brought back by the restaurant were still very rich, Chen Yuanyuan swallowed foaming unconsciously, Sixi meatballs, fried beans and mixed cold dishes, at this time her heart suddenly popped up: "In fact, the dishes in the restaurant seem to be very good, why do you have to go to great lengths to cook by yourself?" ”

Chen Yuanyuan shook his head and threw out this sudden idea, it is better to be firm in doing things, otherwise he will not be able to do things, and he keeps cheering himself in his heart.

After a while, the parents finished their work, walked to the dining table and sat down, with the parents on one side and Chen Yuanyuan on his own. Mother first ate a bite of rice, glanced at the shredded potatoes, the shredded cut is very thin, the size is the same, there is a bit of unique aroma to the nose, try to clip a chopstick (in fact, the parents always eat the dishes in the restaurant, are a little tired of eating), eat it, the taste is not bad, the father looked at the mother to eat very fragrant, also ate two bites.

"This shredded potato, you made it?" Father sniffed the smell of oil smoke from the kitchen with his nose and asked with some seriousness.

"Well... I... Looking at you guys... I always buy outside food and think ...... It's not good, just yourself... Learn to do it. Chen Yuanyuan said with a little grievance.

The mother pulled the corner of his father's clothes and went to the kitchen to take a look, the things were cleaned up, and there were still unused potatoes in the corner, Chen Yuanyuan did not follow, sitting in the seat, his eyes flickered, and he didn't know what he was thinking. Parents muttered in the kitchen.

After a while, perhaps after a discussion, I sat back in my seat and began to eat. The parents didn't eat much, and the rest was eaten by Chen Yuanyuan, during which the parents looked at each other several times, Chen Yuanyuan still saw it attentively, and felt that he would tell himself something about the judgment of this matter in a while.

Sure enough, after eating, the two of them put down their chopsticks and picked out some faults in the fried shredded potatoes, Chen Yuanyuan humbly wrote them down one by one, and asked her to be careful when cooking, don't have anything wrong, so I told it, Chen Yuanyuan listened with low eyebrows.

After that, his parents began to be busy with their own affairs, and Chen Yuanyuan was still sitting in place, showing a contemplative expression. It seems that his first step is a success, but his parents did not give him the money to buy vegetables, it may be that he is still in the test period, and he will try to improve it for two more days, if it doesn't work, he will think of other tricks (now taking the initiative to ask for money will make them wary, so don't consider it for the time being).

In the next few nights, Chen Yuanyuan would fry a plate of shredded potatoes and put it on the dinner table, and his parents put forward a lot of opinions, such as what to add some ginger and chili peppers, which made Chen Yuanyuan feel the difference in his parents' tastes. My father's taste is on the heavy side, and he can eat some spicy food, but he doesn't like to eat green onions very much. My mother has a light taste, likes to eat sweet and sour food, and can also eat some ginger.

This made Chen Yuanyuan's mind lively, so he made a fried shredded potatoes for his parents in the evening (Chen Yuanyuan's pocket money was only enough to buy this), although the parents were a little tired of eating in the past two days, but they still coped with eating two bites, and then ate two more bites until they finished eating the whole plate (Chen Yuanyuan didn't make much), and didn't find anything wrong, and then the two looked at each other, and the mother saw that his father nodded, so he took out the wallet, pulled out one, pushed it in front of Chen Yuanyuan, and said, don't always make the same dish, Occasionally, I cook something else, and at the same time, I give some encouragement.

Of course, Chen Yuanyuan was full of promises, after her parents returned to the house, she was not in a hurry to collect the money, but thought of some problems, her parents have been secretly observing her, calculating the amount of money she receives, otherwise they will not take the initiative to give her money. Chen Yuanyuan had already thought of several plans to ask for money before, but now it seems that she can't use it, so there is a lot less trouble for this, and she put the money in her pocket with a smile when she thought of this.

With a little money, you have to put it to good use. This brings us to the second step, which is to get the parents to give more money, which requires hooking their stomachs.

With this money, I bought some pork, lean meat and pork belly, and bought some beans, eggplants, peppers and other vegetables. Well, Chen Yuanyuan asked himself that he had no experience in mastering the heat, but the knife work was still very outstanding, which required him to lean in the latter direction. Basically, they are shredded beans, eggplant strips and the like, which are easy to cook when fried, and easier to grasp when salty.

Every time he experimented, Chen Yuanyuan would write it down in his notes, and the problems that appeared would be highlighted, and he would occasionally go to Julie's house to consult the nanny and know some tricks, which made Chen Yuanyuan more handy at cooking.

Before the end of the holiday, Chen Yuanyuan's parents' three meals were basically from Chen Yuanyuan's hands, for which a microwave oven was added to the house, and Chen Yuanyuan would prepare the day's dishes and put them in a sealed plastic box. The refrigerator is still very large, and these boxes are not crowded, and when you want to eat, take them out and put them in the microwave to heat them up, although the taste is a little worse, but it is still a lot stronger than the restaurant (of course, saving money is also one of the reasons).

Chen Yuanyuan does not think that his cooking skills are higher than the chefs of the restaurant, the reason why his parents think that the taste is good is because Chen Yuanyuan specially fried it for their taste, and the chef just makes it according to the taste of the public, which is the secret of Chen Yuanyuan's cooking.
