"Boss, get a few skewers for me." The middle-aged man is a gourmet connoisseur, and he immediately noticed the extraordinary quality of the meat skewers from the smell.
Liu Qiang was dumbfounded and said: "Uncle, in fact, Fat Uncle baked this specially for her. I can't bake it to taste like this."
Just now, Liu Qiang witnessed Lin Fei's entire baking process, which was complicated and orderly. He first marinated the onions and egg whites for about five minutes. Perhaps because he was afraid that the time would be too short and the flavor would not taste good, Lin Fei kept grabbing and kneading them with his hands.
Then put one piece of mutton leg meat on the skewers and then one piece of mutton tail meat. The mutton leg meat is pure lean meat and has a refreshing and tender taste. The mutton tail meat is fat meat with rich fat and high texture. The combination of fat and lean taste will make it more delicious.
There is a sense of hierarchy.
When grilling the skewers, Lin Fei kept flipping them. When the skewers were five or nine, he began to brush them with oil, sprinkle some salt and continue to bake. When they were eight or nine, he began to sprinkle the ingredients, and then brushed another layer of oil. This would help the adsorption of the spices. He sprinkled
The ingredients are also different from others. Cumin is not sprinkled directly, but ground into fine powder and sprinkled, followed by freshly ground pepper and chili powder, and finally roasted and served.
"So you're not the chef here?" the middle-aged man said sheepishly.
"It's okay, we are neighbors upstairs, help them." Lin Fei smiled and said, "I will make coconut chicken for you next."
"It's delaying your dinner with your lover." The middle-aged man had already seen the relationship between the pregnant woman and Lin Fei.
The beautiful pregnant woman hurriedly said: "Uncle, we are not husband and wife."
As soon as he said this, everyone around him looked attentive. Liu Yu thought to himself, it must not be the case. He has never seen this pregnant woman next to Fatty Lin before. He has always been single, but who is this pregnant woman?
"I am... I am a distant relative of his."
"He is my distant relative and niece. He is here to do some business and stay for a few days." Lin Fei said quickly. Since the relative is a generation away, others will not criticize him, especially the Liu Qiang brother and sister who are also guarding the Tongzi Tower.
, naturally I want them to publicize it, to save those boring people from talking nonsense.
The beautiful pregnant woman rolled her eyes at him, "Who is your niece? Huh, take advantage of me."
The middle-aged couple had been there before, so they obviously didn't believe it. The story of a distant niece who was pregnant and alone came to visit a distant relative and uncle. This story was very unreasonable, but they didn't know how to pry. They met by chance, so naturally they couldn't interfere in other people's private affairs.
"Little girl, can you let me try the meat skewers?" He changed the topic and focused on the mutton skewers. He loves delicious food and will not give up until he eats it.
"Of course." The beautiful pregnant woman had just eaten more than thirty skewers, and only a few skewers were left. She said embarrassedly, "I'll give them all to you, I'm full."
The middle-aged man looked at the meat skewers and said: "The color is red in sauce, spicy and delicious." He couldn't wait to take a bite, nodded and praised: "It's not greasy or tangy, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, the meat is delicious and has a unique flavor. It's really
Not bad, the grilling is very professional.”
"There are not many delicious foods that you can praise." The beautiful middle-aged woman also took a bite, "It's good, the taste is delicate and tender, fat and spicy."
The middle-aged man smiled and said: "Sure enough, delicious food comes from the folk. I didn't expect that there would be such a big surprise in this market. Brother, I want to taste your coconut chicken as soon as possible."
"Then I'll do it as soon as possible." Lin Fei hurriedly walked to the kitchen utensils.
Liu Yu whispered: "Just tell me what you need." Her attitude became better. Lin Fei's cooking performance just now made her have a different view of Lin Fei.
"Just go buy three fresh coconuts."
"Okay." Liu Yu said and went to the roadside fruit stall to buy some.
Lin Fei asked Liu Qiang to take out a whole chicken. Lin Fei frowned and said: "Is there anything else? It's best to be a young chicken." The coconut chicken must first use Wenchang chicken, and it is best to use a young hen that has just laid eggs.
, if we don’t have Wenchang chicken, we can only use tender chicken.
"No, they are all about the same size."
Lin Fei shook his head secretly, the taste of this kind of chicken must be greatly reduced.
To make a dish well, it is not a simple matter, and the ingredients are also very important.
It seemed that he could only process it a little by himself. Lin Fei put the chicken on the chopping board, kneaded his palms and began to knead and pat it continuously. The purpose was to soften the muscle fibers and bones. After feeling that it was about the same, he took Liu Yu to buy it.
Use a fresh coconut, cut off one end, pour the coconut milk into a bowl, and then use a grater to peel out the coconut meat layer by layer. Cut the blanched chicken into small pieces of five or six centimeters, making sure that all
The chicken is connected to the bones, then put into the hollowed out intact coconut shell, then covered with the shaved coconut floss, then put a few slices of ginger to remove the fishy smell and enhance the flavor, and finally cover the cut off coconut end and put it into the cooking pot
Inside, pour the coconut milk in and steam over high heat.
At this time, many people have noticed this place, standing aside and watching curiously, and some people are taking videos with their mobile phones.
Steaming takes time, usually at least one and a half hours. Those who were watching also sat down and simply ordered wine and food to eat and drink.
Liu Qiang and his sister were all smiles. There were more customers today than in the past three days. Many of them came here for the smell of mutton skewers. They also saw Lin Fei making coconut chicken. Naturally, they all wanted to see what the coconut chicken would look like after it was made.
of.
The task of cooking the dishes was completely handed over to Lin Fei. Liu Qiang couldn't get involved at all, and he didn't want to make a fool of himself. Compared with Lin Fei, he was inferior to Lin Fei in terms of the color, aroma, shape and cooking style of the dishes.
Lin Fei held the spoon with his left hand and stir-fried over high heat. The dishes danced in the flames in the pot. He held the spoon in his right hand and poured the seasonings into the pot in an orderly manner. It was like a pianist playing selflessly and a dancer dancing gracefully.
Full of artistic sense.
As small as a plate of fried peanuts or a plate of hot and sour shredded potatoes, the flavors are brought to the extreme. A real chef must take every dish fried seriously. If it doesn't taste good, it will be a shame.
"Brother, he must have been a chef before. Many chefs are fat." Liu Yu whispered to Liu Qiang.
"He only moved to our Shunhe Tongzi upstairs half a year ago. I don't know anything about his past. Now it seems that he must have worked in a big hotel and must be a chef." Liu Qiang said very understandingly.
"I'm really good at cooking, but I'm a terrible person!" Liu Yu snorted coldly.
"I guess he has been stimulated in some way, but he seems to have changed a lot today. He used to be glib and talkative, but now he is much more stable, and he is also very friendly towards guests."
Liu Yu glanced at the silent and beautiful pregnant woman, "Is it because of his distant niece? He pretended to be very gentle in front of her. At first glance, she looked like a young lady. She was so gentle and quiet. She was just like him.
There is such a huge difference, is she his niece?!"
"Okay, stop thinking about these useless things and get to work!"
"You just know how to treat me badly! You are a softie outside!" Liu Yu pouted and left.
After a long wait, the coconut chicken was finally ready. Lin Fei picked up a coconut, carefully brought it to the table of the middle-aged couple, opened the coconut shell at the top, and the aroma of coconut milk mixed with chicken came out.
The soup inside is white and thick, and the shiny chicken pieces stand on top, and the water and milk are blended together, giving people an amazing feeling just by looking at it.
"That's what it looks like." The middle-aged man said with a smile: "Let's not talk about the taste, but the shape can already give me full marks. Xiaomei, what do you think it tastes like? Does it taste like home?"
The beautiful woman picked up a piece of chicken and put it into her mouth. Her expression changed instantly, and she praised: "It's really extraordinary that ordinary chicken can be used to make a similar taste. It's a pity. If it were replaced by Wenchang chicken from home, it would be better."
It’s perfect.”
The middle-aged man took a bite and nodded: "This is already very good. If we hadn't eaten real coconut chicken, it would be difficult to realize the regrets in it. We shouldn't let our brothers make it. We should wait until we have real Wenchang chicken."
, it is our fault that we let our brothers be the most authentic ones."
"That's not easy. I'll do it for you when I get the chance in the future." Lin Fei said with a smile.
The middle-aged man's expression changed, "Brother, this is what you said. Then leave your mobile phone number and see if you can give me a face someday. I would like to invite you to my place to cook this dish just for me. How about I will prepare the ingredients for you?"
You are prepared, and I will not let you do it in vain, I will give you a reward."
"Of course." Lin Fei is not a fool. From their words and deeds, he can see that the middle-aged couple are not ordinary people, and they are amiable. The man is quite generous and the woman is gentle and gentle. Of course he is willing to get to know him, and he said
He would be rewarded, and since he was short of money, he readily agreed.
"Great, let me introduce myself first. My name is Chu Nanfeng, and my wife's name is Li Mei. We are not locals, but we are just staying here temporarily."
"My name is Lin Fei."
Chu Nanfeng was suddenly stunned, Lin Fei?
However, his expression turned away briefly and he said with a smile: "With my brother's cooking skills, it is no problem to be a chef in a better hotel. Why not give it a try?"
"I'm not a chef, and that's not my ambition." Lin Fei is short of money now. For a job that requires money in a short time, it will take at least a month to get paid when applying for a job in a hotel, and he has to stay in the hotel at noon and night, so there is no spare time.
time to work part-time.
Besides, he learned about the rules of various industries in China. No matter what industry you want to officially work in, you must have a certificate. To work on a construction site, you need to take various certificates according to the type of work. Otherwise, you can only do odd jobs. If you can't do a leading job,
The salary will not be too high, unless you are secretly offered another job like Wang Tao, but that is rare, and you have to be outstanding, so if you want to work for a long time, you have to get a certificate in the end.
Of course, a chef must have a chef's certificate. If you don't have a chef's certificate, you can only peel potatoes or wash dishes in a hotel. If the boss and the chef don't allow it, you can't serve.
This regulation is very rigid and demanding, so Lin Fei will not spend time and energy busy with the examination for the time being, at least not now. If he wants to take the examination, he will have to wait until later.
