Chapter 779 White Porridge
"Then, okay, please trouble Xiao Yuan." Xiao Xing put down the instant noodles in his hand and thanked him.
"You're welcome." Yuan Zhou nodded and started cooking porridge.
It seems that Xiao Xing's economic conditions are not bad. He uses Thailand's famous fragrant rice. The rice grains are slender and white, and it smells refreshing.
"The rice we have here is good. You Chinese people who come here will buy dozens of kilograms of it and take it home." Xiao Xing said with a proud look on his face.
"Well, it's good, but there are better ones in China. You can go back and try them when you have time." Yuan Zhou said.
You must know that Yuan Zhou is still a fake angry youth at heart, so he said this. After all, Xiao Xing is actually Chinese, but he is not a Chinese national and did not grow up in China.
Yuan Zhou felt that it was still necessary for him to educate him about China's vast land and abundant resources.
"I think Thailand is good here. The food is delicious, there are many beauties, and the climate is good." Xiao Xing shook his head subconsciously, and then said with a smile.
"Yeah." Yuan Zhou didn't say anything more this time and just nodded.
"There is actually a casserole." When Yuan Zhou was looking for pots, he was a little surprised to find a white casserole at the bottom of the cabinet.
"Oh, my girlfriend put this pot here." Xiao Xing bared his teeth and smiled.
Yuan Zhou was speechless for a while, "Does this guy need to show off his girlfriend all the time?"
However, it is not surprising that Xiao Xing has casserole Yuan Zhou at home. After all, Thai food has been influenced by China and other Western countries, not to mention that Xiao Xing is of Thai-Chinese origin.
This time Yuanzhou didn't say anything, and silently took out the casserole and started washing it.
This casserole looks like it has been used, but not often. Therefore, Yuan Zhou washed it quickly and it was very clean.
"As expected, he is a chef and can wash pots very quickly." Xiao Xing admired from the side.
"Of course." Yuan Zhou nodded unceremoniously.
"You really don't need my help?" Xiao Xing asked again.
"No need." Yuan Zhou refused directly.
"Okay." Xiao Xing spread his hands and continued to watch Yuan Zhou cooking.
Yuan Zhou's cooking is very beautiful. Whether he scoops out rice and washes it, or soaks it in a casserole after washing, these actions are as natural and fast as flowing water, and there is no water spilled during the process.
You should know that every time Xiao Xing's girlfriend cooks and he helps wash the vegetables, there is usually a layer of water on the floor after washing the vegetables.
Of course, this can't be blamed on Xiao Xing. It's because the faucet is not installed well and is too high, so water easily spills out.
"Bang!" Yuanzhou put aside the casserole in which the rice grains were soaked, and then began to wash vegetables, this time water spinach.
Yuanzhou looked at the water spinach carefully and smelled it, and found that except for the slight difference in appearance and taste, the rest was almost the same as in China.
The water spinach here is thin and long, and has a slightly soft texture. It is not as thick and short as the domestic ones, but it has a very crisp texture.
When washing water spinach, Yuanzhou was very careful not to damage its leaves, but also to clean every branch.
After washing, put it directly into the mesh sieve on the side to drain. At this time, the quarter of the chicken taken out earlier is almost defrosted.
"Xiao Yuan, you are really good. Even if you wash the vegetables quickly, why don't you sprinkle water on it?" Xiao Xing walked around Yuan Zhou and then asked in surprise.
"Raise your hands, don't throw the food away." Yuan Zhou said succinctly.
"Oh, like this?" Xiao Xing continued to watch Yuan Zhou cooking.
"I'll keep the chicken legs for you." Yuan Zhou suddenly said to Xiao Xing.
"Ah? Oh, okay." Xiao Xing nodded blankly.
As soon as Xiao Xing agreed, Yuan Zhou picked up the kitchen knife and directly removed the breast meat from the chicken.
Except for the complete chicken legs, Yuan Zhou did not discard the remaining chicken bones, but put them aside for later use.
"Wow, Chef Yuan, you did a really good job with the knife just now!" Xiao Xing exclaimed and changed his title.
Yes, as soon as Xiao Xing agreed, Yuan Zhou took the knife, and Xiao Xing only saw two swipes, and the chicken was separated. The chicken breasts are chicken breasts, the chicken legs are chicken legs, and the chicken bones are chicken bones. They are as clean and neat as magic.
"The basic skills of a chef." Yuan Zhou said modestly.
"Tsk, tsk, which chef's knife is so powerful? It's awesome." Xiao Xing gave Yuan Zhou a thumbs up.
Yuan Zhou nodded and smiled, but said nothing.
After dividing the chicken and soaking the rice grains, Yuanzhou began to officially cook the porridge.
This time, in order to save time, Yuanzhou added ice cubes to the rice halfway through the soaking.
Apart from anything else, there is no shortage of ice cubes in Thailand. Xiao Xing always has small ice cubes at home to mix with water or drinks, because Thailand is accustomed to drinking ice water.
"Wow!" Yuanzhou began to drain the water from the rice grains.
After draining, Yuanzhou picked up the oil on the stove and smelled it. There was no peculiar smell. It should be some kind of bean oil, and then he poured two drops in.
Stir evenly with chopsticks, pour it out into a bowl, then clean the casserole again, fill half the pot with water and start boiling over high heat.
Yuan Zhou soaked the rice grains according to the appetites of the two people, and the portion should be two small bowls for one person.
After a while, the water began to boil. At this time, Yuan Zhou directly poured in the white rice on the side. After the cold rice grains were put into the pot, the water stopped boiling. After a while, it started to boil again.
It's just that when the water rolled this time, it brought up white and slender rice grains. It can be seen that the weight of water and rice is just right, and the water is rolled evenly.
Five minutes after the water boiled, Yuanzhou adjusted the heat to medium, closed the lid and started simmering. While the porridge was simmering, he was busy with the cold dishes on the side.
Yuanzhou plans to make cold water spinach and hot and sour shredded chicken, which should go well with porridge.
Cold water spinach is easy to make. You only need to blanch the water spinach and arrange it on a plate, then mix the sauce and sprinkle it layer by layer to slowly soak in the flavor.
The water spinach is spicy, and Yuan Zhou is familiar with this seasoning. But for the spicy and sour shredded chicken, Yuan Zhou plans to add the local Thai seasoning here.
After all, Yuan Zhou, who had diarrhea, did not want to eat meat. This meat was prepared for Xiao Xing.
"Swish, swish, duh duh." These are the crisp sounds made by the contact between the knife and the cutting board.
Ever since Yuan Zhou started cooking, Xiao Xing had been playing with his cell phone. After all, he had repeatedly confirmed that Yuan Zhou didn't need his help, and he had no interest in cooking.
It's also very good to take advantage of this time to chat with your girlfriend.
For Yuan Zhou, mastering time is something he has learned a long time ago, so when the porridge over there is uncovered and the porridge is boiling but the soup does not overflow, the two cold dishes are ready.
"It's time to eat." Yuan Zhou brought the dishes and the tumbling casserole.
"It smells so good." When Xiao Xing came back to his senses, he immediately smelled the aroma of the porridge that had just been opened.
The lid of Yuan Zhou's white porridge was not opened until it was served. Before that, there was basically no smoke and smoke in the room.
It's time to show off the real technology.
