Fortunately, although his brain is knotted, Hao Dong's cooking skills have basically formed a conditioned reflex, although he has always been a little distracted, under the premise of having a kitchen and basic materials, making a delicious meal will not become a problem.

It's not yet four o'clock in the morning, and even if the boss is doing the morning market dim sum business, the family has just gotten up. The stoves are all cold, and there is no problem with rice and noodles, but vegetables and meat, except for the bun fillings prepared last night, have to wait until the morning to purchase them.

Hao Dong walked around the kitchen and found that it was simple and convenient to make, and he had to be full, either waiting for the boss's first wave of flatbread fritters and buns to come out, or making his own egg fried rice.

It takes time to wait for the boss's house, and the other head is still waiting, they have to hurry back and continue to squat, it is best to wait or not. In the end, Ergou made up his mind for Hao Dong: "Let's fry rice." ”

Rice is the boss's family last night's cold rice, the boss's husband and wife plus a half-sized, and a girl who has just turned one year old, the population is not small, and there is a lot of rice. The couple's porridge for breakfast was stewed with rice, and all the cold rice was given to Hao Dong, and a rice cooker was full, and Hao Dong took a big bowl to dig it all out.

Egg fried rice should be fried to look good, how to fry is actually a bit of a trick.

I bought ten eggs from the boss, beat five egg yolks into the rice, stir vigorously with the rice, and set it aside.

The remaining egg whites, along with five more eggs, beat until frothy; Cut two handfuls of chopped green onions, remove from the pan, sprinkle with chopped green onions, pour half of the egg mixture into it and stir-fry, sprinkle with salt. Wait until the aroma spreads, break the egg pieces as much as possible, and then you can get started.

However, just egg fried rice will be a little monotonous, and if you add soy sauce to stir-fry, it is estimated that only Ergou will be happy, and Hao Dong thinks that he should find a way to get some other ingredients into it.

The owner's small restaurant doesn't serve stir-fry until noon, and the vegetables are delivered around 8 a.m. Hao Dong rummaged around the kitchen, but he didn't even find a single vegetable leaf, and the ham sausage was only two thin, and the boss's son looked at it with a blank eye, and he was embarrassed to grab it from the child. In the end, he found half a leftover watermelon in the refrigerator, and his eyes lit up.

Of course, he didn't think of the weird and innovative dish of watermelon fried rice, but he remembered that melon skin is actually a vegetable.

In the past ten years, few people may have eaten watermelon rind, but in the years when supplies were not very abundant, watermelon rind was also a cold dish unique to summer.

At that time, people were poor, and in the summer, three generations of a family could only eat a small watermelon a day, and after eating, the melon skin was reluctantly thrown, washed and cut, cut into dices the size of a fingernail, and kneaded with salt. One night, the salty flavor went in, and it became a cold dish that could be eaten with rice.

To say that eating melon skin like this alone doesn't taste very good. There is a little bitterness and saltiness in the sourness, just like the days of those days. But today Hao Dong is going to take it for fried rice, which is different. After the oil is heated, the sour and astringent taste will be much lighter, and the unique watermelon flavor of the melon skin itself will be more stimulated, and if you knead it with sugar before, the taste will not be particularly bitter.

This difference can be seen from the expression on Ergou's face.

When Hao Dong just bought the half of the watermelon with the boss and made it clear that he wanted to use the watermelon skin, this guy said: "The melon skin is not delicious, let's take the melon pulp back." ”

Hao Dong ignored him, dug out the melon pulp, stuffed him in his hand and asked him to squat aside to solve it first, and he began to cut the melon skin.

The second dog ate it in his mouth, and watched Hao Dong first cut the outermost layer of dark green skin of the watermelon skin, and then cut the melon skin that was still connected to the one-star melon flesh into small dices of the same size and very good-looking, and then put it in the bowl and began to add sugar and knead, he even knotted his brows, and he couldn't hold back: "Sweet?" Hey, it's not that I don't believe in your craftsmanship, but it's really not delicious to put sweetness in fried rice, right? ”

Hao Dong still ignored his chatter and put aside the watermelon rind mixed with sugar. Another one was put in a small spoonful of oil at the bottom of the pot, and when the temperature came up, the melon peel fell down, and there was a sting, and suddenly the fragrance came out. And it's strange to say that the original greasy taste of the oil pot is washed away by this fragrance, and it doesn't feel pungent, but becomes more and more fragrant.

Ergou looked surprised, watched Hao Dong stir-fry three or two, and then immediately started the pot. While the oil pot was still hot, he continued to put more oil, and after more than ten seconds, the oil pot tumbled, and the big pot of rice mixed with egg yolk liquid slid directly into the pot, and Hao Dong officially started to fry rice.

Egg fried rice should be beautiful and delicious, the most important thing is to grasp the amount of oil, if the oil is not enough, the rice grains will be dry and hard, and it is easy to burn; There is too much oil, the rice grains are full of oil, and the appetite is slightly worse, and you can feel sick to your stomach after taking a bite.

However, oil control is not only a matter of how much is put out, it is also related to heat control. How much oil should be used for a large fire, and how much oil should be used for a small fire, this is not a sentence and a standard can be measured, it all depends on the mastery of the chef.

Hao Dong is very sure, basically after the rice in the pot is turned over, the oil at the bottom has been absorbed by the rice grains, and there is no excess oil to soak in the rice. The rice was originally coated with egg yolk liquid, and the oil was drilled once, and it was brilliant and golden. Pour in the diced watermelon rind and egg cubes, and the golden base is red, white, and green, which is very refreshing. The heat in the pot does not decrease at all, stir-fry twice, and finally pour the remaining half pot of egg wash on and continue to stir-fry.

The second important point of egg fried rice is to make it taste fragrant enough. The taste is fragrant enough, even if the taste is not refreshing enough in the mouth, the fragrance can cover up that flaw.

Fried rice should be fragrant, except for seasonings such as chives, the most important thing is still the oil pot. The hot oil pot is the most authentic fragrance.

Hao Dong stir-fried the spoon in one hand and the wok in the other, the flame rose from the wok, and the rice grains and side dishes were turned upside down in the flames, and then the frying spoon immediately followed, turning quickly in the middle of the rice grains, as if roasting with fire. But the time was short enough, just enough to force out the fragrance, so he sprinkled salt and turned off the heat, and turned over twice to get up the pot.

This technique of turning the spoon in one hand even Ergou's chef boss friends shouted loudly, and Ergou even felt that no matter how many times he watched Hao Dong cook, he would be hungry for his own saliva. Before, he was worried about whether the sweetness in the watermelon skin would not taste good, but now just smelling the aroma of fried rice wafting in the air, he has no worries about this at all!

Prepare the materials and then put them on the stove, no matter how fast Hao Dong's hands and feet are, it is almost half past four o'clock now. There are already people coming to buy breakfast at the door of the small restaurant, the boss's first flatbread has been baked, and the buns are almost ready, that is to say, they can't delay here any longer. No matter how greedy Ergou is, he can only endure and go back to the police station first.

Packed a pot of fried rice into four portions in a fast food box, put it in a plastic bag, took four pairs of disposable chopsticks, and the two of them ran back quickly. In summer, the day dawns quickly, and the street lights are turned off by this time. If they don't try to be as quick as possible and turn around and be noticed in front of the police station, it will be lively.

Fortunately, this distance was indeed not long, and the two did not run slowly, and returned to the police station after five minutes. After all, this is the scope of the police, and there are no long-eyed hawkers who put their morning vegetable stalls over, and the flow of people is not dense, and Hao Dong and the others sneaked into the police station without attracting anyone's attention.

The two little policemen on duty were still asleep with the "help" of Qi Jue. Otherwise, there was no need to wait for Hao Dong and them to lock themselves up, as soon as they entered the house and smelled the fried rice, the two of them should come to their senses.

Ergou was not in a hurry to eat it himself at this time, so he sent a box to the queen first, and then came back. Qi Jue had already opened the big iron door in the waiting room, and Ergou went in and locked it very consciously, so he took the last box of fried rice and started eating.

Hao Dong's fried rice, although it was just simple egg white rice, as well as oil and salt, without MSG and not too many side dishes, but the taste was still not said. The rice is full of grains and fragrant; The egg yolk liquid wrapped in the top is quenched in hot oil and heat, and even has a slightly crunchy texture.

The saltiness is uniform, with a little sweetness in the watermelon rind, and the umami is naturally brought out; However, the diced melon peel itself has just taken off its green and astringent taste because of the short stir-fry time, but the crispness has not been affected at all, and it has the unique sweet taste of watermelon, which just completely relieves the oiliness of the fried rice itself.

In addition, the egg pieces are fried separately, and the pieces are clearly distinguished, fragrant and tender, which is even more tempting. Don't talk about Ergou, even Qi Jue gobbled it up, and almost both of them solved a large box of fried rice in five minutes. And after eating, I was still a little unsatisfied, wondering when I would be able to go out, I had to buy back the food, and let Hao Dong make a few days of delicious comfort and comfort for the grievances he had suffered at the police station in the past two days!

A small theater with a sense of existence:

About Fried Rice

Ergou: Come here little mouse, my brother will teach you what real fried rice is. As for this fried rice, first there must be a woman, and then there must be a man, and the woman lies down, and the man lies on his stomach, and then he starts tumbling......

Hao Dong: ............ Thank you...... (Always feel like a sigh of relief?)

Qi Jue: Eggs don't have to be too expensive, just white swan eggs.
