It was the first time that Liu Huaxing had been cooking at this age. His parents were naturally curious and kept watching.Therefore, Liu Huaxing can only pretend that he is not particularly proficient and come slowly when cutting vegetables.But his craftsmanship is still there after all, and he can see the clues at a glance with the old fried dough sticks like his parents who cook all the time.
"Oh, dog stuff is quite professional." Liu Xuebin watched Liu Huaxing marinate the cut chicken breast in a bowl with soy sauce, minced ginger and various seasonings, and raised his eyebrows immediately, "I didn't teach you. , Where did you learn it?"
"I don't go to the Internet cafe to play." Liu Huaxing said triumphantly, and then cut all the materials in advance, so that he can do it directly the next morning.Otherwise, he would have to run first in the morning and make a bento, which would be too late.
Liu Huaxing looked at the ingredients on hand, because he only had chicken breasts, potatoes and some vegetables, he could only simply cook a few home-cooked dishes.But even though it is a home-cooked dish, you can make flowers. To put it bluntly, the details determine success or failure.
Because it is a bento, you have to wait until noon after you take it, so you can't cook ordinary home-cooked dishes, but try to make meals that can be delicious when cold.
"Fry a chicken chop, a potato and vegetable salad, and then a tomato scrambled egg? No, no, no, no, no, let’s put the tomatoes in the salad. Let’s make a thick egg stew separately... and another fried ham." Liu Huaxing is ready. After the plan, preparations began immediately.
Usually chicken steaks are made with chicken thighs, but now we only have chicken breasts at home, so we can only cook them.Because chicken breast lacks fat, it will be particularly dry when it is simply fried, so Liu Huaxing chooses to saute it first to ensure that its taste is not too old, and then wrap it in bread crumbs and deep-fry it quickly at high temperature to make the dough crisp and delicious. .
The next step is to make the sauce. Because I don’t know the taste of Qin Yulu, Liu Huaxing plans to prepare two sauces: a sweet and sour sauce similar to McDonald’s but with garlic and soy sauce added to it to taste, the taste should be more mellow; One chooses a salty English-style hot soy sauce with a little white vinegar, soup, and pepper to add flavor.
Of course, because the bento is to be eaten until noon, the sauce should not be too thin, otherwise it will be absorbed by the rice and chicken and become dry.You must first collect the sauce on a low heat until the sauce becomes thick.
"Huh?" Liu Xuebin tasted the two sauces made by Liu Huaxing on the side, and raised his eyebrows suddenly: "That's it, is this sauce going to match with chicken chops?"
"Yes." Liu Huaxing wiped Khan and said with satisfaction, "Okay, so the preparations are done."
The next morning, Monday.Today is a big day for Liu Huaxing. One is to get results in the monthly exam, and the other is Qin Yulu wants to taste the lunch he prepared.He got up early in the morning and ran for a walk, then went home to prepare his lunch.He beat the eggs first, adjusted the fire in the pot to medium heat, poured the egg liquid into it, and then turned it over and rolled it up when the egg liquid had just formed.
This kind of egg rolls will look particularly tender, not to mention, they look yellow and delicious.
Then he quickly deep-fried the fried chicken in a coat, topped it with the sauce, and finally another key point of the bento: placing the plate.For the bento, the exquisite presentation is very important, and this is also the last part of the success or failure of the details.
He squeezed the rice a little tighter with his hands, put it squarely into the lunch box, and then placed the chicken chops, salad, egg rolls and fried ham one by one.Colorful and green, red and yellow, looks quite appetizing.At this point, Liu Huaxing nodded in satisfaction and closed the lid of the lunch box.
Of course, he can't just care about his beloved girl and forget his family.
"Parents, I made a few more egg rolls and chicken chops. You can go to work after you eat them." Liu Huaxing shouted, then put the lunch in his school bag.Seeing this, his mother Lu Jing was immediately curious: "Hey, how come it is two? Do you eat two by yourself?"
"It was made for classmates. She will have dinner with me at noon." Liu Huaxing replied simply, carrying his schoolbag and pushing the bicycle downstairs.After meeting Yang Ying at the gate of the community, the two rode to the school.In fact, Liu Huaxing has experienced this Monday for the second time, and this time, like last time, the whole school is full of depression.
But Liu Huaxing's mood is very good. He has been looking forward to this day for several days.
When they came to the classroom, a few students were checking the monthly test reports posted on the wall at the door of the class.
Liu Huaxing took a quick glance and then found himself in the third place in the class.Before he read the file last time, his grade was the first in the class, but this time he lowered his political history score by more than 20 points, so the ranking fell to the third in the class, and the ranking of the whole grade was ranked 46. , And Qin Yulu closely followed, ranking fourth in the class and the school ranked more than fifty.
"Perfect..." Seeing the results on the report card, Liu Huaxing clenched his fists excitedly.
When she came to the seat, Qin Yulu was supporting her chin with a smile on her face. She glared at him and said, "Hmph, this time you are lucky. You are ten points higher than me next time. I must beat you!"
"Oh, let's not talk about that." Liu Huaxing broke the topic and took out the lunch box from his schoolbag. "Come on, I promise you, two meats and two vegetarians. Try it, it's a free trial today, open to eat. Taste a little while it’s still hot."
Liu Huaxing deliberately slowed down and slowly lifted the lid of the lunch box.The expression on Qin Yulu's face changed from curiosity to surprise. Obviously, from a visual point of view, the presentation of this bento was quite delicate, enough to arouse people's appetite.
"Quickly, the chicken cutlet is the most delicious just fried." Liu Huaxing handed over the bento. "Take a small piece for both sauces? Because I don't know if you like the sweet style or the salty one. Prepared a copy."
"Hmm..." Qin Yulu hesitated while pursing her lower lip, but Liu Huaxing saw her throat sway slightly, apparently swallowing her saliva, and then stretched out her slender index finger to grab a piece of chicken chop and ate it.
"Bah!" The voice showed its crunchy taste, and Qin Yulu narrowed his eyes slightly: "Bah!"
"This one is made with sweet and sour sauce, let's try this spicy one again." Liu Huaxing pointed to another chicken steak and said.
"No, save it for lunch, I just came after breakfast." Qin Yulu shook her head repeatedly, still holding the half-eaten chicken chop in her hand, "Not bad..."
In terms of Qin Yulu's personality, "not bad" is already a very high evaluation.
"Is the egg roll sweet or salty?" Qin Yulu asked curiously after eating the leftover chicken steak.
"Sweet, because I don't know what flavor you like, so I chose the conservative route. Do you like salty?" Liu Huaxing asked, Qin Yulu pursed her lips: "Sweet is good..."
"Then, after I finish eating at noon today, tell me if you want to order a meal." Liu Huaxing confidently passed the bento in her hand, and Qin Yulu looked around, and then took advantage of no one to pay attention to them. , Secretly picked up the bento, and hurriedly threw it into his school bag, and then quickly sat down and pretended that nothing happened.
