Chapter 20 Eggplant without spiciness
Cut each eggplant into small pieces, then turn each section with the incision facing upwards and break it in half from the middle into two semicircles.
Then, each semicircle is cut into five more slices, without cutting off, and the bottom is connected.
Add a little salt to the water, and Lin Yan put the cut eggplant into the soak.
At this time, Huang's pork has also been chopped, Lin Yan cut the green onion and ginger into minced pieces, beat the egg into the minced meat, add the minced green onion and ginger, salt and oil, and stir well in one direction.
Eggplant does not need to be soaked for too long, soaking in salt water is just to make the eggplant softer, otherwise the eggplant is too hard to operate.
Lin Yan mixed the filling, and the eggplant was already soaked soft, so Lin Yan asked Huang to help, taught Huang by hand, and filled the minced meat into the incision.
After filling the eggplant incision with minced meat, Huang understood it and couldn't help but exclaim.
After filling in the five gaps with minced meat, the eggplant bulged up from the middle, and the two sides were pressed down by the minced meat, and when you looked down from the top, it looked like a small lantern.
A total of sixteen lanterns were made from the two eggplants, and after they were all filled, they were put on a plate.
The pumpkin cup is steamed.
Lin Yan took out the pumpkin cup, added some water to the pot, and put the neatly placed lantern eggplant into the steam.
Then he asked Huang to help watch the time, and it was steamed after a quarter of an hour.
At this time, there are already three steamed dishes, two of which are eggplant.
Lin Yan rummaged through the ingredients he bought, took out the courgette, and then began to chop the garlic cloves.
The eggplant was steaming in the earthen stove, Lin Yan set up the stove, took out the wok, put oil on the bottom of the wok, threw in the garlic cloves, fried until golden, and the fragrance of garlic wafted out.
Then throw the sliced courgette into it and stir-fry it quickly.
Huang's is okay, at least I've seen Lin Yan's stir-fried food.
But Xiao Li didn't!
It was the first time for Xiao Li to see such a practice, and he was stunned for a while.
Seeing that when the courgette was ripe, Lin Yan poured half a bowl of meat slices into it, quickly stir-fried the straight gourd meat again until it was ripe, sprinkled with salt, and put it on a plate.
The eggplant on the earthen stove next to it was also steamed at this time.
Lin Yan asked Huang to help, took out the lantern eggplant, and took out the courgette.
She then scrambled eggs with leeks, counted, and one was missing, and then went to make another vegetable soup.
There are also requirements for the number of dishes to be used for the banquet, and people like even numbers at any time.
When the six dishes were neatly placed on the table, the Li family and Shen Erping, along with a few small ones, all stared at the table with the same expression and were stunned.
Shen Huai'an, who is still well-read, opened his mouth first: "My brother and sister actually have this craft, this is also too beautiful!" ”
Yes, it's just pretty.
They haven't eaten the food yet, but just looking at this shape, it's thrilling enough, okay!
Not to mention them, in fact, even Shen Jingan was taken aback.
But he looked as usual, and calmly invited Li and Shen Erping to take a seat: "Grandma and the second uncle haven't tasted Yan Niang's craftsmanship yet, right?" Try it today, please advise me on the shortcomings. ”
Li Shi originally had a black face, waiting to see this big table of food, and he was already shocked.
But she never liked to take Shen Jing'an's words, and she still didn't hear them.
Shen Erping laughed and said to Shen Jing'an: "You don't need to look at this dish to know it, it must be very delicious." ”
Shen Jing'an smiled: "Where, grandma and the second uncle are also very hungry after waiting for a long time, so let's go." ”
Lin Yan's sixth aunt is the youngest and the most unbearable.
When she saw this novel meal, she was anxious to eat it, and when she heard Shen Jing'an say this, she picked up the chopsticks and quickly grabbed the super lantern eggplant.
Actually, what she wanted to eat most was the pumpkin cup, but the pumpkin cup was so beautiful that she didn't want to destroy it.
And that coiled dragon eggplant, a long one, as long as she thought about clipping it off, she was reluctant, but the lantern eggplant, a small one, a small one, she clamped one, and she would not destroy anything.
She cautiously studied the lantern eggplant, and after a few moments took a gentle bite.
The minced meat is sandwiched between the eggplant, and the fire forces out all the juices, allowing the eggplant to absorb all of it.
The eggplant was steamed until it was soft, and the eggplant that was full of gravy was so delicious that she couldn't help but widen her eyes, but she was reluctant to speak, and tasted it carefully.
About everyone had the same idea, and the novel and beautiful lantern eggplant was actually the first to be eaten.
On the contrary, it is a coiling dragon, and no one has been willing to clip it.
Lin Yan stood up, took the chopsticks in the middle of the dining table, and put the faucet into Li's bowl: "Grandma Zeng tried Panlong eggplant." ”
Shen Huai'an hurriedly glanced up at Lin Yan, then looked at the panlong again, and praised: "Panlong eggplant, brother and sister are so literate!" What a fitting name! ”
Lin Yan laughed when she heard it, this is not the name she chosen.
But she couldn't explain it, so she acquiesced.
And they ate without raising their heads.
But Lin Yan didn't eat much.
She made all these dishes.
So she knew very well in her heart that none of these dishes tasted right.
There is so little spice here.
If nothing else, how can you make eggplant without millet spicy?
There are also light soy sauce, oil consumption, bean paste, none of these!
The people here have never seen this kind of practice, and they eat strangely.
But Lin Yan is not!
Lin Yan, who is used to eating heavy flavors, can't eat eggplants without spicy flavors.
She couldn't resist dipped in chili sauce.
Alas, if this is China, then she will not want to eat chili peppers again in this life.
Oh my God, this is terrible.
No, that's not right.
Chili sauce at the moment, she didn't think about it, after all, she couldn't find the raw materials.
But soy sauce is different.
Yes, yes, she's stupid, she's also stupid, she's seen the recipe for making soy sauce!
Shen Jing'an sat next to Lin Yan, seeing that Lin Yan didn't eat, staring at his own bowl in a daze, he couldn't help but help clip a piece of chicken and put it in her bowl.
Lin Yan woke up and hurriedly picked up the meat and ate it.
Tonight's meal is really sumptuous, so rich that Xiao Li, who came back to his senses, couldn't help but pull Lin Yan and chatter: "The second aunt knows that you have good craftsmanship and have made a lot of money, but you also said that your family still owes debts, and Jing'an also has to study." In the future, you can't make a feast so rich. ”
As he spoke, he felt annoyed and blamed himself in his heart, why didn't he find out that she had put so much meat?
Almost all the plates have meat!
Even if there is no meat, she has to beat a few eggs, how can this be done!
Xiao Li couldn't help but chant Lin Yan again: "You kid, you can't afford to do this if you have money in the family, how much does it cost!" ”
Don't say anything else, let's just talk about the chicken, and the thought that a few of them actually ate a whole chicken suddenly made me feel distressed.
