Life is a Game

Chapter 286 Carrot Beef Stew

Renyi initially set up a small kitchen in the orthopedic cafeteria to allow patients to receive better care.

Vegetables in the small vegetable market are sold at market prices, and a few yuan is charged for the use of the stove according to the size of the pot. Seasonings such as oil, salt, sauce, and vinegar are provided free of charge, and Renyi is also responsible for cleaning.

After making soup or porridge, many family members of patients will also send a portion to the medical staff, and even some poor-pocketed doctors will go to the small kitchen to cook when they are resting.

When the small kitchen was first established two years ago, it was once highly praised and popular, and even had to queue up to use it. It is a proper Renyi Internet celebrity kitchen.

But with the passage of time, the freshness of the small kitchen has gradually faded, and more and more people realize that their cooking skills are not very good.

The dishes they cook in the small kitchen under high temperature, noise and stale air are not even as good as those sold in the hospital cafeteria or the small restaurant in front of the hospital.

Regulatory doctors also found that eating a home-cooked meal after a long, hard and exhausting work day was almost life-threatening.

Nowadays, in the small canteen specially set up to provide patients with better care, except for a few aunts who insist on frying a few simple side dishes in the small canteen, others only come here to cook soup occasionally, and set the alarm clock to let the soup Just cook it yourself on the stove.

When Jiang Feng finished washing his hands and returned to the small kitchen, the aunt had already picked out the carrots from the casserole and was helping Jiang Feng wash the vegetables.

"Young man, you are back. I see that you have quite a lot of dishes, so I will help you wash them." The aunt said enthusiastically.

"Thank you, aunt." Jiang Feng smiled.

Jiang Feng turned his attention to the beef on the stove.

If the pot of beef is just out of the pot, the chances of it being cured are still very high. But now the pot of beef had been cooked on the stove for more than an hour, Jiang Feng poked the meat with chopsticks, and the first thing he felt was that it was hard.

This kind of meat is chewed in the mouth, until the cheeks are sour, it is estimated that it will not be chewed.

In addition, the ingredients are not enough, and the color is not up, this pot of beef is definitely a new dark dish.

The only thing worthy of praise in this pot of beef is probably the knife skills. The aunt is not bad, and she knows how to follow the texture of the meat when cutting.

"What's your surname, aunt?" Jiang Feng asked.

"My surname is Qian, young man, what's your last name?" Aunt Qian was washing mushrooms and corn, "Son, do you want to peel the corn?"

"My surname is Jiang, so I'm sorry to trouble Aunt Qian." Jiang Feng wasn't polite anymore. If someone helped him cook, the cooking speed would be much faster. Although Aunt Qian was not good at cooking, she was good at handling ingredients.

Jiang Feng picked out the large chunks of beef from the casserole, rinsed it, cut it into small pieces, added the ingredients back into the pot, brought it to a boil on high heat, and simmered on low heat.

"Aunt Qian, to make carrot stewed beef, you have to put the beef in boiling water for a while, then stir-fry the onion, ginger, and garlic. If you are not sure about the amount, you can cut it into larger pieces and add more. After the stir-fry, add light soy sauce and cooking wine Stir-fry with oil until the beef is colored. The amount of light soy sauce and dark soy sauce is the amount of a spatula. The light soy sauce is full, and the dark soy sauce is less. No problem."

"Then change the casserole, add slow-cooking water until the beef in the pot is submerged, add seasonings such as geranium, fruit, pepper, etc., boil on high heat, and simmer on low heat. For this casserole, it takes about two hours to simmer Add carrots in the last 20 minutes, sprinkle some salt and sugar, and it's ready to serve after stewing." Jiang Feng told Aunt Qian how to make beef stew with carrots.

Aunt Qian was stunned for a while, and said after a long time: "Xiao Jiang, you said so much, Auntie can't remember all at once..."

Jiang Feng: ...

That's right, Aunt Qian is a layman in cooking, so it's really difficult for her to leapfrog the challenge of carrot stew.

Jiang Feng went to the cooking table to process the pork belly, and the braised pork also had to be stewed slowly. It took the most time and had to be cooked first. Aunt Qian was next to him to help him peel the corn kernels.

"Aunt Qian, do you usually cook?" Jiang Feng asked while cutting the meat.

"I usually don't cook at home, I just play as a helper. My father-in-law used to cook, but now my husband cooks." The aunt said, sighing, "My husband likes carrot stewed beef the most. My father-in-law cooks the food. The dishes are excellent, and he never gets tired of eating them from snacks to meals. Later, he started to cook and cook this dish every now and then, and my daughter loves it too."

"You made this dish specially for your husband?"

"More than that, I made it for my husband, father-in-law and daughter." The aunt said.

Jiang Feng's hand for chopping vegetables froze, with a look of astonishment on his face.

The aunt saw Jiang Feng's expression and smiled: "It's unlucky to drink water and stuff your teeth. My husband drove to pick up my father-in-law and my daughter. On the road, he was rear-ended by the car behind and hit the big truck in front."

"Fortunately, 120 came in time, and all three people were rescued. My mother-in-law is taking care of them in the ward now. She always feels that the escorts are not taking care of us as well as we personally, and she has to stay there all the time."

"My father-in-law and my daughter are lucky. They recovered well after the operation and will be discharged from the hospital after a while. My husband will die. He is the most injured and recovers the slowest. He is only in his 50s and he is not very young. , but it has been repeated repeatedly. The doctor found me yesterday and asked me to prepare myself."

"The doctor said that if you are lucky, you may be able to survive, but my family has not had good luck for so many years. When driving on the road, you can be hit by others, and you have never won another bottle when you buy a drink. He didn't even win a consolation prize. He's been unlucky for so many years, and I hope he's luckier this time."

"I asked him what he wanted to eat this morning, and he said that he wanted to eat my carrot goulash. He said that he had cooked carrot goulash for me for so many years, and it was time for me to make it for him."

"Tell him, what's wrong with wanting to eat, but he actually wants to eat my beef stew with carrots. Can I eat my dishes? I can't even stir-fry a green vegetable well." Aunt Qian said with a smile on her face He could barely keep smiling, but his eyes were already turning red unconsciously.

"Xiao Jiang, thank you. Without you helping me, this pot of beef would be ruined. My husband will have to laugh at me later."

Jiang Feng turned his head to look at the beef on the stove, and suddenly felt that it was inappropriate for him to directly help Aunt Qian cook beef stew with carrots. This dish should not be made by him.

"Aunt Qian, you can do it again tomorrow." Jiang Feng said.

"ah?"

"This dish is not difficult. I will come over to help my cousin cook tomorrow. I will guide you. I will move my mouth tomorrow. You can do it." Jiang Feng said.

Aunt Qian was stunned for a moment, and said, "Then I will trouble you."

"No trouble, it's just a matter of raising your hands."

Some people eat food not because of the taste, but because of the person who cooks it.

"Xiao Jiang, let me help you deal with this duck."

"Thank you, Aunt Qian."

"By the way, Xiao Jiang, can you tell me the steps of stewing beef with carrots later, I'll write it down on a piece of paper, and I'll figure it out tonight." Aunt Qian asked.

"No problem, I'll tell you again later." Jiang Feng readily agreed.

Aunt Qian really wanted to make a carrot stewed beef by herself.

Do it yourself for her lover.
