Chapter 853: Drinking a few glasses of wine at the family dinner

How to make four simple dishes in half an hour.

First you need a maid to prepare the ingredients, and then a pot of oil.

Boil the tofu, gluten and sweet potato.

Fry the tofu first, then the sweet potatoes.

The most delicious version of the Eight Treasures Tofu dish is actually the low-end version for the common people. It uses the cheapest soaked squid, shrimp, sea cucumber, and snail meat that can be bought at the vegetable market, plus fish balls and crab sticks, all cooked in one pot, and it tastes like artificial flavor.

If you make it according to the high-end version taught online that's used in regular restaurants, the dish will be ruined.

It’s not that it’s not delicious, it’s just that it has no special features. Unless you need to add another dish to make up the number, there is really no need to order it.

Of course, there are lower-end versions. After all, these days you may not even be able to buy water-soaked seafood in the market.

Dried shrimp, scallops and dried mushrooms can be used just by soaking them in water.

If you feel that the flavor is not fresh enough, you can add a spoonful of Tianmen local shrimp paste.

Dip the tofu in flour and fry it in oil until golden brown. Then add the sweet potatoes and fry them until golden brown. The whole process takes about five to six minutes.

Next comes the exciting cooking session.

Pour cooking oil into the pan, add lean pork shreds first, stir-fry until half-cooked, add eggs, and adjust the sauce. The first dish of fried pork tenderloin is ready to serve.

Don’t wash the pot after use. Cook the gluten in the sauce, add water and other ingredients, thicken and serve. This is the second local dish, stewed gluten.

Still without washing the pot, pour in tofu, dried shrimps and mushrooms, adjust the sauce and thicken it, and the third dish of copycat eight-treasure tofu is ready.

At this time, wash the pot again, boil the sugar over high heat, add the sweet potatoes, and make the fourth dish, candied sweet potato.

All in one go.

If you have enough time at this time, you can also make some seaweed and egg soup.

There is no need to discuss the specific technical details, you can learn them on your own. The most important thing is that the order is not wrong.

You make the candied sweet potato first, and by the time the last dish is served, it has already become hard.

Make the Eight Treasures Tofu first, and there will be a fishy smell in the pot.

If you change to other dishes, you will have to make other preparations, which will waste more time.

There is a lot of knowledge involved here. Wang Yunxiao even quietly used his scholarly analytical skills to optimize the entire process.

But on the surface, it seemed like I was just easily cooking four dishes in one breath.

Li Mumu watched from the side in silence.

"So... do the first three dishes taste the same?"

"Of course not, there is a difference here."

Wang Yunxiao was too disdainful to argue about this.

Everything you throw into the hotpot tastes the same. Why don’t you order a table full of wide noodles and cabbage?

"Why do I feel like you are fooling me?"

"Absolutely not."

Wang Yunxiao’s purpose is quite clear.

I'm not trying to prove to your parents that I'm some top chef in the Chinese cuisine world.

As long as they can see that this young man has cooking skills and doesn't burn the food, he won't let his precious daughter starve to death, that's enough.

Mu Yuming had already opened the bottle of wine in the living room. When Wang Yunxiao served the last dish, Li Mumu followed shyly and raised her hand to say, "Ask Auntie Wu to clean up the kitchen. Come and sit down and have a couple of drinks with me."

Wang Yunxiao said modestly: "Uncle, I can't drink much."

Mu Yuming smiled and said, "I don't usually drink. You see, I haven't even opened the wine that others gave me. But if you say you can't drink, I don't believe it. I've heard about your reputation on the street. People say that you and your little brothers drink big bowls of wine and eat big chunks of meat every day. You are so happy."

"Those people just listen to too many storytellings and make up stories. In fact, few of them really know me. My friends usually study in school or work on your construction site. You have seen them before."

"I have seen them. They are indeed heroes."

"No, no, uncle, you are too kind." Wang Yunxiao picked up the wine glass and took the initiative to toast. Mu Yuming smiled slightly and raised his glass to greet him.

Li Mumu sat nearby and picked up a piece of candied sweet potato with chopsticks, wrapped it around the chopsticks a few times and put it in cold water.

This candy is hanging well.

There is no other seasoning for this dish of candied sweet potato, and the main effort goes into boiling the sugar.

The craftsmanship is pretty good, and it's not just an exaggeration.

But it's far from enough to get past me.

How could you trick me, the eldest daughter of the Li family, into leaving you with just a plate of candied sweet potatoes?

Not to mention this person...tsk tsk, he is not an honest person.

Hmm...the tofu is cooked well too.

By the time she came to her senses, Wang Yunxiao and her father had already finished three rounds of drinks.

They both drank a small wine cup of about one or two liang of liquor with a liquor content of 30 to 40 degrees in alcohol in one gulp.

Putting down their wine glasses, they looked at each other and saw each other's expressions. Wang Yunxiao and Mu Yuming became alert.

I met a master.

Wang Daba was a gangster in the past, so needless to say this aspect.

Boss Mu is now involved in real estate, and he cannot avoid various social engagements.

Now this is a match made in heaven.

"Eat your food! Don't be polite with us."

"Okay uncle!"

Wang Yunxiao had just picked up a piece of braised beef in soy sauce and put it in his mouth when he heard Li Ya whisper to Li Mumu: "It's great to be young. I still remember when I went to the bar with your dad, he was like a piece of wood, just drinking silently. He didn't dare to say he liked me even when his tongue was swollen from drinking..."

Mu Yuming frowned and asked, "Is there such a thing?"

Why do I remember that it was you who pretended to be drunk and was harassed by a group of homeless people, waiting for me to pass by and then threw yourself into my arms, and then forced me to take responsibility?

In front of his juniors, he was too embarrassed to expose Li Ya's past and could only respond vaguely.

Wang Yunxiao felt overwhelmed and felt like he was sitting on pins and needles.

What main idea did Aunt Li want to express when she said this?

Is he encouraging me to express my feelings boldly, or is he disliking me for not drinking enough?
At this time, he noticed from the corner of his eye that Mu Yuming was about to pick up the wine glass, and he quickly took the initiative to greet him: "Uncle, I toast you another glass!"

"Well, drink as much as you can. Don't try to be stubborn."

Mu Yuming nodded, picked up the wine glass and drank it all.

I did it, you can do whatever you want.

"Drink slowly, you're not outside, why are you in such a hurry?"

Li Ya picked up the teacup and said with a smile: "Eat more food. Auntie uses water instead of wine. Let's drink a glass..."

"Cough-cough-"

Li Mumu covered her mouth and coughed.

You two are playing mixed doubles here? What does that mean?
What, you want to get him drunk and then let him sleep here tonight?

What if I don't exist?

Seeing Wang Yunxiao pouring cup after cup of wine like a fool, she couldn't help but gently kick him on the calf under the table.

That’s enough. Why pretend to be a model son-in-law?
Wang Yunxiao actually felt that it was enough. He could just drink a few glasses of wine to express his attitude. It would not be nice if he got his future father-in-law drunk and turned him into a Jet Warrior.

But at this time, Li Ya said again: "Hubby, do you know that recently those relatives who came to visit, regardless of how close they are to you, asked about Mu Mu as soon as they came up, as if there was no other topic except matchmaking. I am really fed up..."
