God of Cooking, grilling skewers attracted the fairy beasts
Chapter 226 Beggar Chicken
"Smile, smile, smile, don't eat it when it's cooked in a while."
Li Heng first threw the mud in his hand on the grass and glared at Miss Ruyan angrily.
"You... Master Li Feng, thank you for your hard work. I actually want to come over and help."
Girl Ruyan's laughter stopped suddenly, her fists were clenched hard, but she spoke soft words.
"Hmph~ That's pretty much it."
Li Heng was too lazy to argue with Miss Ruyan, so he turned around and said to the two little ones: "You two go clean it up first and see how dirty it is."
If he had known better, he would not have taken them with him, which would have done him a disservice. Li Heng smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Now that all the ingredients needed to make beggar's chicken are ready, it's time to cook after so long delay.
The feathers and internal organs of the seven pheasants have been removed, and the next step is to marinate them for flavor.
"Brother Li Heng, we are here to help too."
The two little ones, who hurriedly cleaned themselves up, wanted to know how Li Heng cooked with yellow mud.
"You can help, but don't make trouble like you did just now, otherwise..."
"Boom, boom."
Li Heng didn't stop the two little ones. After one of them was rewarded and his brain collapsed, he began to prepare the ingredients.
Tie a small handful of green onions into knots, cut an appropriate amount of shredded ginger, add two star anise, a little pepper, soy sauce and a little salt.
First put the above ingredients into the basin, stir evenly, then add the chicken feet with the chicken heads and feet removed, and continuously apply the sauce on the skin and belly of the pheasant.
After coating, stuff all the ingredients into the chicken belly.
These are not operations that require skill. After Li Heng adjusted the two pots of ingredients, the rest of the people squatted around the pots and helped marinate the pheasants, just one per person.
"Okay, these chickens still need to be marinated for a while. Now it's time to use lotus leaves and yellow mud."
Fresh lotus leaves don’t need to be processed, just wash them with clean water.
For yellow mud, you need to pick out the small stones inside first, and then pour an appropriate amount of Baihua Brew into it to make it more viscous.
"Little brother Li Heng, you are too extravagant. You actually use Baihua Brewing to play with mud."
Jiang Mei only felt that Li Heng was a little too wasteful. She could understand adding some wine when cooking, but now that it was indeed added to the yellow mud, he might as well drink it directly.
Fortunately, Tie Ming was not here, otherwise he would have been heartbroken to death.
"Hehe, this is just to make the chicken taste more delicious."
Li Heng explained lightly.
After mixing the mud, Li Heng took a few lotus leaves and put them under the pheasant. After pouring a little sauce on the pheasant, he wrapped the pheasant tightly in three layers with lotus leaves.
The outermost lotus leaf is tied with cotton thread, and finally a half-inch thick layer of yellow mud is wrapped on the surface.
"Ah? So that's how yellow mud is used!"
Lu Xiaoxiao said with some disappointment, she originally thought that brother Li Heng would make the yellow mud into a dish similar to Sui Diu.
"Then how about I fry a plate of yellow mud for you to try alone?"
After several people wrapped all seven mud balls, Li Heng joked with Lu Xiaoxiao.
"I don't want it. Do you think I'm as stupid as dad?"
This girl Lu Xiaoxiao is getting harder and harder to deceive.
"No kidding, just help me look after the fire if you have nothing to do, and I'll cook some vegetables."
Li Heng set up a big fire on the grass, and when the fire was strong, he threw seven clay balls into the fire.
"Junior Brother Li, when will this beggar chicken be ready?"
Su Lingxuan suddenly thought of a key question.
The women sat around the fire and stared at the clay balls roasting in the flames, imagining what the beggar's chicken would taste like.
“Just wait until the mud ball hardens and cracks start to appear on it.”
Li Heng stood up. He had just cut some leeks on the roadside, and he liked to use these leeks to make another dish.
"Okay! Brother Li Heng, go and do your work. We are here to watch. We guarantee that there will be no problem."
Lu Xiaoxiao raised his little hand and promised.
One chicken per person should be enough to feed several women. Li Heng wanted to cook another dish simply because he was a little greedy.
After all, in this Xuanwu Continent, this leek has always been regarded as a weed. If he hadn't encountered it by chance this time, he might have had to wait a long time before he found it.
"Then let's make scrambled eggs with leeks, but these leeks are perfect for making dumplings."
Li Heng said to himself that it was too troublesome to make dumplings by rolling them out, so let's forget about it today.
In comparison, making scrambled eggs with leeks is much easier and does not require many ingredients.
After making up his mind, Li Heng took out a handful of fresh leeks, washed them and cut them into sections, separated the leek stems and leaves, drained the water and set aside.
Take a few more eggs, break them into a bowl, add an appropriate amount of warm water, salt, wine and mix well.
Pour the stirred egg liquid into the hot oil pan, fry until it solidifies and set aside.
Add a little oil to the pot again, first add the leek stems and stir-fry. After five breaths, add the leek leaves and continue to stir-fry.
Turn on high heat and fry the leek leaves until they change color, add an appropriate amount of salt, stir well and then add the scrambled eggs.
After stir-frying evenly, take it out of the pan and put it on a plate. Li Heng eagerly tasted it with chopsticks.
"Sure enough, it still tastes the same as before."
Li Heng nodded with satisfaction.
"Brother Li Heng, you are actually eating secretly."
Xiao Chi originally came to inform brother Li Heng that the beggar's chicken was ready, but he never expected to see Li Heng eating as soon as he got closer.
"Xiao Chi, don't make trouble. How can eating the food I cook be considered stealing?"
Li Heng knew that Xiao Chi also wanted to eat, so he simply gave her a chopstick, then he held Xiao Chi in one hand and scrambled eggs with leeks in the other, and walked towards the fire.
"Junior brother Li, come and see if the beggar's chicken is ready to eat?"
After getting close to the fire, Li Heng faintly smelled the aroma of wine. He looked closely and saw that the seven mud balls in the fire had been smoked black.
"The outside is burned like this, can the chicken inside taste good?"
Girl Ruyan took a stick and poked the black mud ball, not believing that it could contain delicious food.
"You'll know if it tastes good or not! It's almost done, so take out all the mud balls."
After everyone heard this, they took out all the mud balls from the fire.
"So, what are you going to eat now?"
Several people stared at the black ball without knowing what to do.
"Hey, look!"
Li Heng suddenly summoned a rolling pin and hit the black ball in front of him.
"Crack!"
The black ball shattered with a sound, revealing the dry lotus leaves on the outermost layer, which had been dried out of moisture inside.
After tearing open the remaining two layers of lotus leaves, the whole pheasant wrapped in it was exposed to everyone.
In an instant, the fragrance blocked by yellow mud and lotus leaves spread, like a fragrance bomb in front of everyone.
It exploded with a bang.
Under the high temperature baking, the aroma of wine, lotus leaves and chicken are perfectly combined, hitting the faces of several people.
"Wow, it smells so good!"
Except for Li Heng, no one thought that such a delicious food was actually hidden inside this unattractive black ball!
