Happy private dishes

Chapter 15

The seemingly common and homely shredded pork with green pepper is actually a practical dish that often appears in many chef exams.It has also appeared as a designated dish in some chef competitions.

Even many restaurants recruit chefs, and they like to use the dish of shredded pork with green peppers to test the skill level of the chefs.

The shredded pork with green pepper is fried in a smooth way.The frying process is actually not complicated, but in the specific operation, there are certain difficulties in the various links of knife work, sizing, oiling, seasoning, thickening, and serving.Not all chefs can make a plate of high-quality shredded pork with green peppers.

Take Kou Yuanyuan as an example. Before she participated in the half-month training, she could cut pork and green peppers into 8cm long and 0.2cm thick shreds with the same thickness.She can also finish the sizing with a recipe in her head.However, she is likely to get stuck on the oil.The control of the fire and the temperature of the oil are things that Kou Yuanyuan did not have in the past, and they are exactly what she has been learning and honing for the past two weeks.

In the first week after entering the high-end kitchen, Brother Lu saw how strong Kou Yuanyuan was.So she was determined to let her practice cooking, and she continued to guide her from the sidelines.

Although Kou Yuanyuan never told Fang Shulan, that week was actually very difficult for Kou Yuanyuan.

Almost every night, when the players in the same group get together to comment on each other, everyone will say that the youngest Kou Yuanyuan is the worst player in the group.She cooks really badly and will get mushy.Entering the top 20 in this group is a miracle.

At that time, although Brother Lu didn't look too easy to mess with.Some people will still say that Brother Lu probably doesn't have much coordination ability.He is not good at kitchen management and distribution.

As the main judge, Zhao Feiran always stood aside and listened to the contestants' various opinions.Everyone said he had a poisonous tongue, but for a whole week, he didn't comment on any of the players.

He just observed quietly, and Kou Yuanyuan practiced cooking desperately under pressure like a normal person.He watched her slender wrists sweat profusely while holding the huge frying pan, and watched her listen to Brother Lu's opinion.Watching her close her eyes to taste the dishes she made, and then said with a smile: "I still think it's delicious."

"It's very important whether the cooked food looks good." Brother Lu would pour cold water on her. "Unsightly dishes will affect the mood of diners."

Then, Kou Yuanyuan will redouble her efforts.

Zhao Feiran never thought that a 16-year-old girl would be so resilient and energetic.He suddenly felt that Kou Yuanyuan, who can fry vegetables, might create a miracle in future competitions.

In the second week, Zhao Feiran simply divided the 20 people into two groups.Brother Lu was still telling Kou Yuanyuan to cook, and the other contestants were in a hurry.Almost got into an argument with them.

Kou Yuanyuan is extremely resistant to pressure, or she has a thick skin.She doesn't care about other people targeting her or making trouble for no reason at all.What to do.In addition, Brother Lu was in charge of their group, and two light and strong men, Xiao Xu and Luo Xiaobo, were also on their side.Others will not easily say anything.In the end, the grumpy, protesting contestant had no choice but to accept it.

With Brother Lu's full mobilization that day, their team passed the test.In the other group, two players were directly brushed off.

On Tuesday, the group will be regrouped, and Brother Lu, the team leader, will no longer have the contestant who had a lot of trouble the day before.He probably didn't want to be in the same group as Brother Lu and the others.Unfortunately, Brother Lu's group won again.The opponent's group eliminated two more.

After a few rounds, everyone found that Brother Lu was very trustworthy.Even in the face of difficulties and crises, he can always find a way to turn the tide.Later, that contestant even apologized and said nice things to Brother Lu.He really wanted to return to Brother Lu's group.Brother Lu didn't want him.Then again, he was eliminated on Friday.

Brother Lu said, "A chef who doesn't know how to cooperate with other chefs is not a good chef. If the skills are not good, the team can make up for it. The important thing is that everyone in the team learns and makes progress together."

This is how Kou Yuanyuan was brought out under the special care of Brother Lu.Kou Yuanyuan herself is also very smart, with strong hands, good knife skills, and a strong memory. Basically, she can remember everything that has been taught to her.She will never make the same mistake a second time.

Brother Lu can be regarded as the first person who discovered Kou Yuanyuan's copying talent.That's why he really came up with the idea of ​​accepting Kou Yuanyuan as his apprentice.But, he is no longer the man he was before.Even if he wants to take in apprentices, others may not think highly of him yet!
Therefore, Brother Lu couldn't speak easily.

Xiao Xu probably saw what he was thinking, and kept talking nonsense to Kou Yuanyuan as if joking.

Until yesterday, Kou Yuanyuan dared to fry this green pepper stir-fry in front of Fang Shulan.Show off what you have learned.

The shredded pork she fried is beautiful in appearance, plump, shiny and smooth, with green peppers and green sauce.The two blend together evenly.It makes people feel pleasing to the eye.

The meat is silky, tender and tasty, the green peppers are crisp and refreshing but not raw, coupled with her precise seasoning.

Kou Yuanyuan tasted delicious in her mouth.Fang Shulan also spoke highly of her dish.

They didn't expect this dish to become today's exam question.

Many contestants at the scene couldn't even cook this seemingly simple home-cooked dish well, and everyone had various problems.

When the time came, Master Feng walked up to Kou Yuanyuan.As he walked, he said, "I really want to try her dishes. She should be the youngest of our contestants this time, right?"

"Yes." Zhao Feiran followed beside him.He casually introduced: "She is just 16 years old this year, she is a high school student, and she came to participate in the competition during the summer vacation."

"Oh, that's it. Well, let's try the dishes made by this Kou Yuanyuan." Master Feng picked up the chopsticks in his hand and carefully picked up a mouthful of shredded pork with green peppers.

He tasted it carefully.It took a long time before he said, "Very good, better than I imagined. I didn't expect her to be able to cook such a dish at such a young age."

Zhao Feiran simply took out a pair of chopsticks.First pull out Kou Yuanyuan's vegetables. "There is no oil, no soup, and no thickening at the bottom of the plate."

Immediately afterwards, he also picked up shredded pork with green peppers. "Smooth, light and fresh, moderate taste."

Then, Su Yongmin tasted it too.The three looked at each other.In the end, Uncle Su announced directly.

"Very good, Kou Yuanyuan, you passed. Congratulations, you will go directly to the next round. Please rest there first." Uncle Su pointed to the glass house-like lounge on the right as he said.

It was made like a small coffee house, with no cooking fumes and stoves, but air-conditioning and a variety of beverages and snacks.This is the benefit of the winner.

Fang Shulan's eyes were red with excitement when she saw that her daughter had been promoted.Kou Yuanyuan raised her small fist at her, then walked towards the lounge.

"After tasting the dishes made by the child, let's try the dishes made by her mother."

Soon the three judges came to Fang Shulan.During the two weeks of training, Fang Shulan no longer feels as inferior as before.She is quite confident in her level now.

Soon Fang Shulan, Brother Lu, Xiao Xu, Cheng Hongying, the uncles in Group B who were very powerful at first glance, and those truly capable players all passed directly.

After tasting everyone's dishes, the three judges got together to discuss.Aunt Ge, Luo Xiaobo and others also passed directly and can directly enter the next round.

"The next contestant... Mi Rou."

Surprisingly, the judges still remembered Mi Rou's name.She actually passed it?
When she was a duck, Mi Rou was still looking for a camera, trying to say a few words to attract attention.However, starting from making shredded pork with green peppers, Mi Rou suddenly became quiet.I don't know what to think?
When the judges chanted Mi Rou's name, Mi Rou who lowered her head and played with the corner of her clothes seemed to be taken aback.She looked up blankly, as if she had misheard.

It wasn't until she saw the camera filming her that she woke up immediately.She gave a sweet smile.Then he said to the judges: "Thank you for the judges."

After finishing speaking, Mi Rou stepped on her high heels and walked towards the lounge with her head held high.She was clearly in the kitchen, but she walked out of the catwalk.

On that day, I don't know if it was because of the shooting.Mi Rou didn't say anything annoying, nor did she do anything unbearable.She didn't even sit by the window to watch the match like the other players.Instead, he sat alone in the corner inside, looking thoughtful.

After Xiaopang also passed, he ran to her and asked, "Sister Mi, what's wrong with you?"

After a long time, Mi Rou said: "My dad first taught me how to stir-fry. At that time, many people came to my small shop specially to eat this green pepper shredded pork fried by my dad. My dad said that when I cook this dish someday, I can take over from him."

"Is that so? Sister Mi, you cooked well today. You can take it home and feed it to your father."

After a long time, Mi Rou said lightly: "There is no need to take it back. He can't eat anymore."

Mi Rou's father had advanced liver cancer when she was in the fourth grade of technical secondary school.

Her father was a cook in a small restaurant.Junior chef certificate only.Her home is not in any big place.

Mi Rou sold the storefront and house in one go.Then, she borrowed money desperately, and managed to make up enough for her father's surgery fee.Unfortunately, due to limited medical conditions, her father was still not rescued.

Later, Mi Rou simply gave up her career as a chef and started to venture into the entertainment industry.

Mi Rou vowed to become famous, to be a star, and to make a lot of money in the future.

When others asked Mi Rou, she would always say, "I hate staying in the kitchen the most." Her father died in the kitchen, and he had been a poor cook all his life.

"I hate getting a smell of oily smoke all over my body." Others said that his cooking was delicious, but in the end he didn't even earn money for medical treatment.

Mi Rou doesn't want to be like her father.What makes you feel satisfied when you see diners smiling?Such satisfaction would not save his life.

In the future, if Mi Rou suffers from cancer like her father.She must also be able to spend money to get the best treatment for herself.

Mi Rou hates the chef industry so much.

But, I don't know why, when she started making this shredded pork with green pepper, when she tasted the shredded pork with green pepper that she made, she suddenly felt like crying.She will still feel bad.

Fortunately, she is already a professional actress.When facing the camera, she can show a 360-degree perfect smile with no dead ends.
