Chapter 162: Are You Going to Feed Me?
The kitchen suddenly became lively.
The clinking of pots and pans and the rhythmic sound of the kitchen knife cutting vegetables filled the house. The air was gradually filled with the aroma of hot oil and the smell of various ingredients being stir-fried, and the smoke rose, as if even the air became fresh.
The people divided the work in an orderly manner and performed their duties. Some were busy washing fresh vegetables by the sink, some were skillfully cutting and preparing ingredients in front of the chopping board, and some were guarding the stove, concentrating on controlling the heat.
The most eye-catching person was undoubtedly Xu Kai, who was standing in front of the stove and controlling the overall situation.
He was wearing a simple dark gray apron with his cuffs rolled up, revealing his well-defined arms. He moved neatly and steadily, and every step revealed his skill and confidence. The piece of beast meat on the chopping board seemed to have life in his hands and was quickly cut into slices of uniform thickness. Every cut was so precise that it seemed to have been carefully calculated, and there was no error in the slightest.
He put the sliced meat into a large bowl without haste and then poured in cooking wine, soy sauce, oyster sauce, and a handful of special powder—it was a kind of fragrant seasoning grass he had collected over time, which was said to have the effect of enhancing physical strength. He mixed it with chopsticks to make each piece of meat evenly coated with seasoning.
Pour hot oil into the pot, and the oil flower exploded instantly. He first added scallions, ginger, and garlic to the stir-fry, and a burst of fragrant aroma was aroused in the heat, and then he skillfully slid the marinated meat slices into the pot and quickly stir-fried them.
The collision sound of the iron pot and the spatula was crisp and loud, accompanied by the sizzling sound of oil, and the whole kitchen seemed to be revolving around this pot.
"This is spicy and stir-fried exotic meat." Xu Kai’s voice was not loud, but it was still clearly audible in the clamor, as if it was an order.
