Zhang Wenliang and Captain Yang didn't enter the house either, they directly moved their chairs outside to bask in the sun, and while sitting and smoking, they watched Chen Fan busy with his work.

Disemboweling and cleaning, Jiang Lili took out all the big bowls and basins in the kitchen, and Chen Fan sorted them into the bowls one by one according to different parts.

The two large square tables that were brought out of the house were filled with large and small dishes in a short time.

Captain Yang smacked his lips, still commenting, "Xiao Chen's craftsmanship can't be a master craftsman." ”

Accountant Liu nodded thoughtfully, "It's too detailed, and if it's too detailed, it's not fast enough." ”

Keeper Huang also said, "Liu Jiaojiang makes six or seven tables of dishes, and it only takes more than an hour from preparation to serving, and I am afraid that he can only make one table with this kind of method." ”

Zhang Wenliang put forward a different opinion, "But it's delicious." ”

The three people next to him were stunned, and nodded vigorously, "That's true!" ”

With Jiang Lili's help, Chen Fan quickly prepared side dishes.

However, at this time, there was a problem, and the pot was not enough.

I don't know what the first batch of educated youths thought back then, there was a stove in the kitchen, and when there were many people, they couldn't do anything else except cooking.

Now Chen Fan wants to cook, and it is stewed, stewed, fried, fried, and boiled, relying on that pot alone?

There was a pot for boiling pig food in the back, but it was in the back, so he couldn't run at both ends.

When you get the chance, you must remodel this kitchen.

In the future, I will be the head of the household here, how can I do without a decent kitchen?

Chen Fan shook his head, not thinking about these things that are too far away, it is important to solve the matter in front of him.

Fortunately, there are not enough pots here, but there are enough bowls and coils, and there are even several large and small casseroles.

After a little calculation, Chen Fan knew what to do.

First, prepare all the dishes that need to be steamed, put them in the steaming compartment, and take them to the back to steam.

The rest of the dishes are made in the kitchen.

In addition to that, he put a few bricks in front of the kitchen.

The foursome has been discussing on the sidelines.

"There are four ways to cut a white radish?"

"Diced radish, diced cabbage, diced bacon, minced garlic, minced ginger mixed with rice? What's going on? ”

"Ah, I know this, salted fish steamed rice. Also put shredded ginger, garlic sprouts, chopped peppers? ”

"Huh? What are you doing with the bricks? ”

Several people looked at each other, and Captain Yang smacked his lips, "Could it be that the gun is grinding in the battle?" ”

Zhang Wenliang tilted his head and smiled from ear to ear, "Hahaha, this meal is interesting, so interesting." ”

Keeper Huang said with a smile, "It's not that you came here suddenly, you haven't prepared at all, you have to say it half a day in advance, he won't run to fish temporarily, and he will also set up a stove, at least the fish and stove are ready-made." ”

Zhang Wenliang was still smiling, "That's why it's interesting." ”

Then he turned his head to the three of them and smiled, "This is the same as when our militia was engaged in training, fishing and cooking are now, so that the food is interesting." ”

Captain Yang pointed at him and scolded with a smile, "You can lose it." ”

Zhang Wenliang was still quibbling, "I'm not a loss, the main thing is that I can't help him, or I'll make a pot of fish soup, and you can barely eat?" ”

The three of them waved their hands together, and their disgust was beyond words.

In addition to the people who specialize in stove work, there is one in this full brigade, and how many men can cook? Even if there is, Zhang Wenliang is definitely not among them!

When they spoke, Chen Fan did not stop working.

After the small stove was built, he made a casserole and put it on the ground, and then lit it and stuffed it into the small stove.

Only then did he exhale a long breath and raise his hands with a serious face, "Fire and burn!" ”

Jiang Lili pursed her lips on the side, stifled a dead smile, lowered her head and turned into the kitchen.

Then there was the sound of a spatula hitting an iron pot.

The lid of the urn next to it is lifted, and a small grid steamer is placed on it, and every time a dish is cooked, it is put into the steamer, and the hot water in the urn jar will keep the dish warm.

In a blink of an eye, it was four o'clock in the afternoon, and Chen Fan sang and said, "I'm ready to eat." ”

Counting from the courtyard wall to the kitchen, Chen Fan now lives in room 1, Jiang Lili lives in room 3, and the other two rooms are empty, so he put the dining table in room 2.

Accountant Liu and Keeper Huang brought the square table in, Jiang Lili quickly set up the dishes and chopsticks, and began to serve the food.

After a while, a table full of dishes was placed in front of everyone.

Chen Fan introduced with a smile, "Fish head soup, braised fish segments, slippery fish fillets, steamed fish fillets, casserole fish, I don't know if you have eaten this, sauerkraut fish." ”

Thanks to the fact that this fish is big enough and adds a lot of side dishes, otherwise it would not be possible to make so many dishes.

Zhang Wenliang looked at this pot of vegetables, there were a lot of diced pickles under a layer of fish fillets, a lot of dried chili peppers and chopped green onions were sprinkled on the fish, and then a layer of hot oil was poured on it, which made people drool when they looked at it.

He raised his head and looked at Chen Fan, "That's what you're doing with kimchi?" ”

Chen Fan smiled and nodded, "Yes, there is also rice." ”

Rice?

The interest in the eyes of the four has increased greatly, can kimchi still cook?

Although Jiangnan does not have that kind of Northeast sauerkraut, it also has its own kimchi, and the kimchi is also sour, make a small jar to mix some sour water, put the cleaned vegetables in it, and you can eat it in three or five days.

Generally, peppers, white radish, carrots, cowpeas, pickled cabbage and cabbage are also used, but only a few leaves are put at a time, which is very different from the jar of sauerkraut in the Great Northeast.

There is no sauerkraut, so Chen Fan uses kimchi to make sauerkraut fish, which also has a unique flavor.

Looking at this sauerkraut fish, several people couldn't help but move their index fingers, but they didn't move their chopsticks before they could shout.

In addition to a few dishes, there are several common local dishes, such as fried bacon with garlic sprouts, fried cabbage with fatty skin, fried red cabbage moss with oil residue, and shredded preserved fish, with a total of 8 dishes and one soup, and then there are three casseroles on the table next to it.

Chen Fan walked over and lifted the lid, and a rich aroma evaporated, quickly filling the entire room.

A simplified version of Yangzhou fried rice, a pot of preserved fish stewed rice, and a pot of assorted braised rice.

Chen Fan pointed to the three-pot rice and said with a smile, "There are also diced kimchi here, and if there are not enough dishes, you can only use rice to make up." ”

Zhang Wenliang shook his head and said with a sigh, "Is this still called not enough food?" The rich man marries his daughter and is not as rich as you, and your meal is not simple, at first glance, it is only eaten by rich people, we can't do it, we will only stew sweet potatoes. ”

Chen Fan smiled, in fact, the most ingredients used in this table are those few dishes, as for the others, only a small half of the bacon and a small half of the bacon are cut, and the rest are all vegetables. However, rapeseed oil used up three or four taels, so it really didn't cost much.

But with 8 dishes and 1 soup and three pots of rice, it looks very hearty.

Zhang Wenliang suddenly raised his head, "Alas, what about Xiao Jiang?" Bring her over and eat with her. ”

Although everyone tacitly kept their distance from her, they were busy for a long time, and they couldn't eat or call others, so what happened?

Chen Fan said with a smile, "She is a girl, and she is awkward to sit at a table with a few of our old men, so I prepared another one for her, and she can eat it alone." ”

Captain Yang looked at him and asked, "Are you really ready?" ”

Chen Fan smiled, "Can this be fake?" Why don't you go and get it checked? ”

Hearing him say this, Captain Yang didn't say more.

Then Chen Fan also sat down, and after some pushing, he began to push the cup and change the lamp.

On the other side, Jiang Lili was sitting in the kitchen, holding a big bowl of Yangzhou fried rice in her hand, with three dishes and one soup in front of her.

A bowl of sauerkraut fish, a bowl of braised fish, a bowl of bacon and stir-fried beetroot moss, and finally a large bowl of fish head soup. She could see clearly from the side that these were prepared for her separately by Chen Fan when he was cooking, not from the bowl.

Every time she took a bite, she smiled, the corners of her mouth kept curling, and she couldn't stop laughing.
