Food conquers the world

Pushing open the door and walking into the yard, there was no one in the yard or the living room of Mrs. Huo Sen's house. Zou Kai hesitated for a moment when he heard a voice coming from the kitchen.

If Mrs. Hawson was cooking...

Thinking of this possibility, Zou Kai immediately pushed open the kitchen door.

It was afternoon, and the kitchen was covered with golden light. Mrs. Huo Sen was chopping vegetables. When she heard the door open, she turned to look at Zou Kai.

"I'm back." Zou Kai greeted hastily and entered the kitchen.

Mrs. Huo Sen smiled, nodded, turned around and continued cutting vegetables,

"Mrs. Huo Sen, if you haven't done it yet, then I'll come..." Zou Kai turned to Mrs. Huo Sen's side, ready to see if he still had a chance to win the right to cook, but he was stunned as soon as he lowered his head.

Mrs. Huo Sen was cutting potatoes. She sliced ​​the potatoes one by one, spread them out and shredded them. She cut slowly and very carefully.Mrs. Huo Sen's handwriting is not very handy, but she cuts slowly in this way, and the shredded potatoes are even in thickness and shape.

Zou Kai was stunned for a moment. Judging from the food Mrs. Huo Sen prepared for him yesterday and his reaction to the "green pepper and potato shreds", he probably knew that Mrs. Huo Sen never shredded potatoes for cooking, but today Mrs. Huo Sen I specially shredded the potatoes... Is this to restore the green pepper and potato shreds he made at noon today?

"I think you may not be used to the food I make. I don't know how to do what you say, so I will prepare the food for you first." Mrs. Huo Sen was cutting potatoes while she was talking. After the last cut, he turned his head and asked Zou Kai, "Is this going to be soaked in water?"

"No! No!" Zou Kai finally came to his senses, pushed Mrs. Huo Sen's thin shoulders, and coaxed, "I'll come, I'll come, just go out and wait!"

"Okay, okay." Mrs. Huo Sen showed a indulgent smile on her wrinkled face, and walked out of the kitchen.

After Mrs. Huo Sen left, Zou Kai silently glanced at the shredded potatoes on the chopping board and started to light a fire.

Put the oil and salt on high heat. After the oil is hot, put the shredded potatoes into the pot and stir-fry for a while. Zou Kai puts out two pieces of wood at the bottom of the pot in the ash, turns to low heat, and presses the shredded potatoes into the pot with a spatula.

This time Zou Kai used a frying pan, and the amount of shredded potatoes he put in just spread a thick layer on the bottom of the pan, which looked like a flatbread of shredded potatoes.

Under the pressure, these originally loose potato shreds slowly bonded together, and the kitchen was full of fragrance for a while.

Zou Kai imagined Mrs. Huo Sen's expectant smile when she smelled the fragrance, and the corners of her mouth slowly raised.When one side of the potato shredded cake was fried until it was golden brown, Zou Kai shook the pan, used the spatula to turn the whole potato shredded cake over, and continued to fry on low heat.

This time he made fried potato shreds without putting too much oil and salt. The bread that Maier sent yesterday was eaten at noon today, which means that their meal tonight can only be potatoes.Zou Kai originally wanted to make some side dishes, but Mrs. Huo Sen only had a few eggs here, not even rice.And because there are only potatoes, these eggs are very precious, so Zou Kai didn't touch them.

When Zou Kai finished his distraction, the fried shredded potato cakes looked about the same. Zou Kai picked up the pan and put the whole thing upside down on the plate that Mrs. Huo Sen had prepared earlier in the morning. diffuse.

After the dish was finished, Zou Kai thought about making another soup, but he couldn't find any suitable ingredients. As the saying goes, a good woman can't cook without rice, so he had to give up.

Dry fried two potato shredded pancakes, and when Zou Kai brought them out, Mrs. Huo Sen was already waiting by the table in the living room. There were two cups on the table, and a sweet smell was steaming from the cups.

Zou Kai put the stir-fried potato shredded cake on the table, and glanced at the cup: "What is this?"

There was a light yellow in the cup, and there was a little dark red in the light yellow, and the aroma was like some kind of grain. Zou Kai thought for a while, but before he could say it, Mrs. Huo Sen returned to his question: "Oatmeal, no milk, I soaked it in hot water and added a little wild plum.”

Zou Kai nodded, picked up the cup and took a sip, then frowned, this thing is sweet, too sweet!The original sweetness of the oatmeal was completely overwhelmed, and he didn't know how much sugar Mrs. Huo Sen put in. He felt tired after taking a sip.

Despite this, Zou Kai immediately relaxed his brows after frowning at the beginning, and gave a comment: "It's so sweet and delicious!"

Mrs. Huo Sen smiled and didn't say anything. She picked up the knife and fork and asked, "Does this potato cake have a name?"

"Stir-fried potato shreds cake." Zou Kai replied, watching Mrs. Huo Sen cut a piece of dry-stir-fried potato shreds and put it in his mouth.He discovered in the morning that Mrs. Huo Sen used a knife and fork to eat, and the green pepper and potato shreds she made at noon were also covered with bread, which was convenient for knives and forks. That's why she made the stir-fried potato shreds into pancakes tonight.

Mrs. Huo Sen took a bite. She thought it was all potato shreds. The stir-fried potato shreds that Zou Kai said were no different from the green pepper and potato shreds that Zou Kai ate at noon today, but after taking a bite, she found that they were completely different.

Stir-fried potato shreds tastes more delicious, and the golden yellow potato shreds on the outermost layer are fried golden and crispy, but the potato shreds inside are fragrant and soft, and the potatoes are slightly sweet. Want to get a second bite.

Soon Mrs. Huo Sen ate up the plate of shredded potatoes. Seeing that Mrs. Huo Sen liked it, Zou Kai couldn't help but feel a little happy. Oatmeal, I quickly drank a large cup of oatmeal without knowing it.

In fact, Mrs. Huo Sen's oatmeal seems to be just right at this time. The dry fried potatoes are fragrant, but they are too dry, and Zou Kai also cooks too much, and he will get tired of eating too much.Although this cup of oatmeal is sweet, the sour taste of the wild plums that Mrs. Huo Sen put in just neutralized the sweetness. It is not surprising that oatmeal and shredded potatoes complement each other, and it makes people appetite .

After dinner, Mrs. Huo Sen went to wash the dishes. At this time, it was completely dark. Zou Kai had enough food and drink. He stayed up all night last night and was already very sleepy.He wanted to sleep when he was at the mill, but after all, he was an outsider, and it was not good to be lazy at work for the first time, so he just managed to survive.

There was nothing to do at this time, Zou Kai washed his face with cold water - Mrs. Huo Sen didn't seem to have the habit of boiling hot water to wash her face, and he didn't bother Mrs. Huo Sen - and was ready to go to bed.

Mrs. Huo Sen just came out after washing the dishes. Seeing Zou Kai return to the room, she stopped him and said with a smile: "I took some clothes from Hardy's house. They are clothes worn by Maier's brother before, and I plan to leave them to Maier. Er's, Maier can't wear it now, I'm going to put it on for you first, and you can see if it fits."

Zou Kai has been wearing the clothes he wore before he came to this world, a light brown long trench coat, jeans and sneakers.Before that, he had been in a daze and didn't pay attention to his clothes. When he thought about it, he found that no one seemed to think that he was dressed strangely, so he just let it go.

After being mentioned by Mrs. Huo Sen, Zou Kai's heart also raised, and he asked a little difficultly: "Is my body... strange?"

Mrs. Huo Sen shook her head with a smile: "It's not surprising, but you always need a change of clothes. It's just that you are wronged to wear country clothes."

"It's all right!" After hearing that Mrs. Huo Sen didn't have any doubts about his clothes, Zou Kai immediately agreed, "Please trouble Mrs. Huo Sen to help me find clothes. Let's call Village Chief Hardy and Xiao Mier over for dinner tomorrow! "

As soon as Zou Kai finished speaking, he suddenly remembered that the food at Mrs. Huo Sen's house seemed to be delivered by Hardy's, and he was a little embarrassed. At this time, Mrs. Huo Sen said: "Mr. Hardy and Maier will come to eat tomorrow, Hardy Mr. and Mrs. Hardy, as well as Maier's brother Etta, will go hunting in the forest of the world, and the two of them will come to my place for dinner."

After listening to Zou Kai nodded: "That's right, I just want to thank them, I will cook more food tomorrow... Wait, go hunting in the forest of the world?"

Isn't the forest of the world a very dangerous place?
