Nongmen sisters and brothers are not simple

Chapter 32
"Eldest sister, you are back, did you bring something to eat from the mountain for Fanwen and me?" Xie Fanri and Xie Fanwen, two little ones, after coaxing Xiaoguai to sleep, the two brothers played in the main room Then, after Xie Fanri saw his elder sister and the others coming back, he hurried up to ask.

"Fanchen picked some tender thorny moss, you can make do with it, big sister is going to cook right away." Xie Fanxing took out a handful of thorny moss that Fanchen picked from Fanchen's back basket and handed it to Xie Fanri.

"Sister, I'll help you, and by the way, teach me how to cook!"

"it is good."

When he came to the kitchen, Xie Fanxing first set up a pot to boil water, put the rice in the pot and boil it until it was half-ripe, then took it out with a sieve, drained the water, and then mixed the dried sweet potato shreds into the freshly taken out rice. Just steam it with a wooden steamer.

While Xie Fanxing was steaming the shredded sweet potato rice, she asked Fanyue to choose the vegetables, remove the flowers from the bracken, remove the roots of the wild onions, wash the Houttuynia cordata, and wash the water celery, and put the washed vegetables aside for later use.

Xie Fanxing had already planned what to cook.

Stir-fried water celery, stir-fried wild onion with bracken, Chinese toon egg cake, cold Zhe Ergen, fried small river fish, braised loach, stir-fried escargot, oil-dried chicken, chicken offal.

"Fanyue, you smash the tail of the snail, so it will be more convenient and delicious." Stir-fried water celery, stir-fried wild onion with bracken, Chinese toon egg pancake, cold Zhe Ergen, oil-dried chicken, and chicken giblets are the six dishes that are better. Stir-frying doesn't take much effort, it has been washed now, as long as the stove is vacant later, you can start cooking.

It is more difficult to make freshly fried small river fish, braised loach, and stir-fried snails. Small river fish and loach have to be disemboweled with scissors to take out the internal organs.

The tail of the snail should be cut off, then soaked in water, and it should be cooked for a long time after frying.

Therefore, Xie Fanxing planned to fry the dishes that took the longest time first, and other easy-to-fry dishes were quicker, and the first-fried dishes would not be allowed to cool down.

"Elder sister, is it like this? Will it break open a little bit, and it will affect the eldest sister's frying of snails later." Xie Fanyue lost control of her strength and smashed half of the tail of a snail, vaguely seeing The meat inside the snail was gone.

"No, breaking open the tail of the snail is just to make the snail taste better. It doesn't matter how much you break, as long as you break it open." Xie Fanxing only took a look, and then she focused on cutting open the belly of the small fish stick and took out the internal organs.

Originally, the tail of the snail was cut with mouse pliers or sharp scissors, and there was no need to smash it.

But their family only had one pair of needle and thread scissors. If they were used to cut snails, they would have to be discarded. In order to save time and effort, Xie Fanxing had to let Fanyue smash the tail of the snail with a stone.

Xie Fanxing held the fish in her left hand and the scissors in her right. She swiftly cut open the abdomen of the small fish stick, took it out and made it dirty. After cutting the small fish stick, she began to cut the loach again.

These loaches were brought up by Xie Fanxing from time to time when he was putting ground cages in the canals of the paddy field. After a month or so, he harvested quite a lot, just enough to make a meal.

The loach was more difficult to handle, Xie Fanxing first packed the loach, beat it a few times, and after making the loach faint, she took some lime from the stove and sprinkled it into the loach.

This can not only remove the mucus on the loach, but also make it easy for Xie Fanxing to cut open the abdomen of the loach and remove the viscera inside the loach.

Xie Fanxing followed the middle of the horizontal opening and cut along the loach's abdomen, cleaned the internal organs and put them in water for washing.

"Okay, we have all the dishes ready, and the steamed sweet potato rice is ready, let's start cooking." After finishing all the dishes to be prepared, Xie Fanxing saw that the sweet potato rice had been steamed, so she asked Fanyue to cook The steamed sweet potato shredded rice was brought to the main room in a wooden steamer, and she started to boil water.

The first dish to make is sautéed escargot.

Put the snails in a pot under cold water, add green onion and ginger to remove the fishy smell and pass through the water again.

Take out the snails that have passed through the water, clean them, drain the water and stir-fry them.

Heat the oil in a pan, the oil is [-]% hot, add ginger, garlic, cinnamon, star anise, fragrant leaves, dried chili strips and saute until fragrant, then put the snails and stir fry for a few times, then put in water and cook for a dozen After a few minutes, collect the juice and add pepper and perilla leaves to stir fry a few times, and finally sprinkle with chopped green onion and it can be out of the pan.

However, when the pot was covered and cooked, the cinnamon bark, star anise, and fragrant leaves in it were cooked, and the strong aroma attracted Xie Fanyang who was in the main room. wok.

"Wow! It's so fragrant! It must be delicious." Xie Fanwen looked eagerly at the steaming iron pot that was cooking the snails.

"Taste it and see if it tastes good." Xie Fanxing lifted the lid of the pot, and the aroma became more intense, making the brothers and sisters unable to help but lean towards the iron pot eagerly.

Even Xie Fanyue is the same.

"Sister, how about this?" Before they ate boiled snail meat, which was used to fry Jerusalem artichokes. At this time, the snails were in shells, which made Xie Fanwen feel like he couldn't eat them.

Seeing that there was nothing to eat in front of him, Xie Fanwen wrinkled his face, full of distress.

Looking at Xie Fanxing like that, it was a little funny and said: "Just eat like this, put the tip of your tongue against the top of the snail, and suck it again, the meat of the snail will be sucked out, but remember not to eat the tail."

"I sucked out the snail meat. It's delicious. I sucked out the soup inside the snail. It tastes delicious, fragrant and spicy." Xie Fanwen, a foodie, was the first to suck out the snail meat. He couldn't wait to stretch out the delicious food. Go out and get the second snail and eat it.

Xie Fanyue ate it a few times, and couldn't stop eating the delicious ones, one after another.

However, Xie Fanxing served a few snails just for them to taste, there was not much at all, and they ate them all at once, which made them feel a little unsatisfied.

"Take it out first, and eat it slowly later." Xie Fanxing brought a big wooden basin, filled most of it out, and asked Xie Fanyue to take it out.

She washed the pot and continued to fry the next dish.

Fry the small fish sticks until golden on both sides, then add dried chili, ginger and garlic to sauté until fragrant, add some water to boil, season to taste and then serve.

Fry loach until golden brown on both sides.There is oil for frying loach in the pot, add minced ginger and garlic and sauté until fragrant, add water to boil, add a little sugar to enhance freshness, collect juice and season to taste, and then it is ready to serve.

Chinese toon is boiled in water....

After finishing the three most difficult dishes, Xie Fanxing didn't take much time for the remaining dishes.

Just stir-fry water celery, stir-fried wild onion with bracken, toon egg pancake, and cold Zhe Ergen.

The Xie Fanyue siblings, since they ate the sautéed snails made by Xie Fanxing, they have stayed in the kitchen one by one and haven't gone out. Their eyes are fixed on their elder sister's quick hands and feet cooking.

Every time Xie Fanxing made a dish, Xie Fanxing saw two small eyes staring eagerly at the dish she cooked, Xie Fanxing was a little amused, she still took some dishes out of the pot and let them try it.

This made them even more reluctant to leave the kitchen, which also caused their siblings to rush to help their eldest sister after Xie Fanxing cooked.
