Food: Taking the twins to kindergarten to be chefs

Chapter 378: This is also a fight for favor
On Saturday morning, the sunlight quietly poured into the room through the gaps in the curtains.

Without the urging of an alarm clock and without the pressure of work, Huang Jun slept until he woke up naturally.

The moment I opened my eyes...

He couldn't help but feel a deep emotion in his heart: Sure enough, holidays are the most pleasant days.

He lay on the soft bed, slightly sideways, looking to the left...

I saw Qingqing lying quietly beside me, her small body wrapped in a quilt, like a quiet little angel.

His gaze shifted to the right again and he saw Weiwei.

The little guy's sleeping face is also peaceful, as if he is immersed in a beautiful dream, with a sweet smile on the corner of his mouth.

He stared at the two cuties quietly for a moment...

He couldn't help but lean over and gently kiss Qingqing's tender cheek, then turned to Weiwei and left the same mark on her face.

next second...

Weiwei, who was originally sleeping soundly, suddenly uttered a slight "hmm", and then slowly opened her eyes.

Oh no!
Huang Jun was shocked. He didn't expect that his good morning kiss would wake her up.

He quickly stretched out his arms, gently patted her body through the thin quilt, and coaxed her softly: "Weiwei, sleep a little longer, there's no need to rush to get up."

"Papa~"

Weiwei called out in a daze, then leaned sideways into Huang Jun's arms and asked vaguely, "Is it dawn yet?"

The little girl thought he was calling her to get up!
Huang Jun didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he nodded and answered truthfully: "Well, it's dawn. If you still want to sleep, sleep a little longer. You don't have to go to school today, so you can have a good rest."

Weiwei nodded obediently, closed her eyes, and prepared to fall asleep again.

But after a while, she opened her eyes again and said softly, "Daddy, I can't sleep now~"

If that’s the case, then don’t force it!

Huang Jun smiled helplessly and said softly, "Since you can't sleep, then don't sleep. We can get up together and enjoy this beautiful morning. What do you want to do? Do you want to make breakfast with Dad?"

"Okay!"

Weiwei's eyes sparkled with excitement.

Huang Jun saw this, put his index finger gently on his lips, made a "hush" gesture, and whispered: "Be quiet, my sister is still sleeping, let's not disturb her."

"Oh~"

Weiwei nodded sensibly. She tried to prop up her upper body, carefully stretched out her little head, and secretly peeked in the direction of her sister.

I thought my sister was still in a sweet dream, but unexpectedly, she had woken up.

Her bright and curious eyes were watching them quietly...

Oops, I seem to have woken up my sister accidentally.
Weiwei's heart was instantly filled with surprise, but also with a hint of regret.

She retracted her neck and said to Huang Jun with an uneasy look: "Dad, sister is awake too!"

"Really!"

Huang Jun turned his head when he heard the voice, and actually saw Qingqing had opened her eyes and was looking at him with sleepy eyes. A gentle smile appeared on his face involuntarily, and he greeted softly: "Qingqing, good morning!"

"Dad, good morning~"

Qingqing saw Huang Jun looking back, smiled sweetly at him, and then jumped into his arms like a little kitten looking for warmth.

Huang Jun reached out and gently rubbed her little head, then reached out and gently pinched her little face twice.

The cheeks are so soft!
Huang Jun felt the soft touch with his fingers, and a feeling of pride and satisfaction surged in his heart.

After all, all these extra flesh were the result of his careful cultivation over this period of time.

Weiwei, who was standing next to them, watched their interaction eagerly, a hint of envy flashing in her eyes.

She pouted her little mouth and said in a coquettish tone: "Daddy, I want to rub my little head and pinch my face too~"

As he spoke, he moved his little head closer, expecting the same affection.

uh~
This also requires competition...

Huang Jun looked at Weiwei's cute appearance, and couldn't help but feel funny and warm in his heart. At the same time, his eyes were full of love. He smiled and nodded, "Okay, my Weiwei wants one too!"

The words fell.

He slowly reached out his hand, gently stroked Weiwei's little head, and then gently pinched her tender face.

hmm~
The touch is delicate and soft, even softer than Qingqing's little face.

It seems that this little one may have quietly surpassed her sister in weight without anyone noticing.

You know, in the past, Weiwei was even more picky about food than Qingqing. She was always choosy about food, which caused Huang Jun a lot of worry.

But now, looking at Weiwei's increasingly round little face, he deeply feels that he made the wise decision to become a chef. He is even more convinced that his decision to go to the kindergarten to be a chef is the right one. He also sighs that all his efforts and hard work are worth it.

He asked softly with a smile: "Qingqing, Weiwei, what do you want to eat in the morning?"

Qingqing blinked her beautiful big eyes, thought for a moment, and then said excitedly: "Egg and potato pancakes!"

When Weiwei heard the suggestion, her eyes immediately lit up, as if the delicious taste of the egg and potato pancakes she had eaten yesterday morning was still lingering on her tongue, and her little tongue couldn't help licking her lips.

I'm greedy~
Her little face was filled with an expectant smile, and she couldn't wait to agree: "Daddy, I want to eat egg potato pancakes too~"

He smiled and nodded: "Okay! Then Dad will make egg potato pancakes for you! And I want to make a different kind of egg potato pancakes."

"Dad, how is it different?"

Weiwei's big eyes sparkled with anticipation as she asked curiously.

Qingqing is like a curious kitten, with its little ears erect, listening attentively, wanting to find out what is going on.

Huang Jun pretended to be mysterious and said: "You will know in a moment, now let's get up and wash up!"

"Okay~"

Qingqing and Weiwei nodded obediently. No matter what their father did, the egg and potato pancakes that were finally served on the table would definitely be super delicious.

They moved quickly and put on their own pink skirts and soft white leggings.

Although their movements were still a little clumsy, they had made great progress compared to before. "Not bad, great!"

Huang Jun stood aside, watching the two little ones' self-care abilities and gave them praise and encouragement at the right times.

After they were dressed, Huang Jun carefully helped them adjust their clothes to make them more comfortable and decent.

Then, he took them to the bathroom and started their morning wash.

After washing up, Huang Jun walked into the kitchen, picked up the apron hanging on the wall, put it on skillfully, and prepared to start making egg potato pancakes.

Qingqing and Weiwei followed in like two little tails, jumping and skipping, and always followed closely behind Huang Jun.

See this.

Huang Jun appointed the two little guys as his little "kitchen helpers".

Qingqing and Weiwei were so happy that they could help.

"Come, let's put on our aprons first to avoid getting our skirts dirty." Huang Jun put on mini aprons for children for them.

The aprons are printed with cute patterns, making the two little ones look like adorable and playful little cooks.

Huang Jun handed them each a few fresh green onions and instructed them how to remove the skin, roots and dead leaves of the onions.

After receiving the order, they squatted on the ground and started working seriously.

Huang Jun gently brushed off the scattered dirt on the basket, picked out a few round and plump fresh potatoes, and then washed them under running water to remove the dirt and impurities on the surface.

The potatoes appear brighter after being rinsed with clean water.

After cleaning, he picked up the scraper. The moment the blade touched the potatoes, the potato skin fell off gently like light threads, gradually revealing the tender yellow and delicate flesh of the potatoes.

then.

He placed the peeled potatoes on the chopping board, gently bent the fingertips of his left hand to hold the potatoes firmly, and picked up the kitchen knife.

With the flexible rotation of the wrist...

The knife blade moved quickly on the potatoes, and the potato slices were arranged neatly like flying snowflakes. Each slice was as thin as a cicada's wing and crystal clear.

He gently closed the potato slices and continued cutting.

With every cut, the potato shreds fell like thin threads, gradually piling up into a small hill on the chopping board.

Qingqing and Weiwei, who were squatting on the side, tilted their little heads back and watched Huang Jun's every move without blinking, with admiration and worship in their eyes.

Weiwei couldn't even help imitating Huang Jun's movements, gesturing in the air, as if she could also cut the potato shreds so evenly.

Huang Jun soaked all the chopped potato shreds in a basin of clean water.

This is to prevent the potatoes from oxidizing and changing color after coming into contact with air, and to maintain their fresh color.

After the shredded potatoes have finished "bathing" in water, he uses a strainer to scoop them up and drain the water.

He added salt, cumin powder, pepper powder and other seasonings in turn and stirred them thoroughly so that every piece of potato shredded absorbed the essence of the spices and exuded a charming aroma.

Then, he added a proper amount of flour to the shredded potatoes, and gently rotated his wrist so that each shredded potato was evenly coated with flour, forming a layer of potato paste with moderate viscosity.

After finishing the batter, Huang Jun put the bowl aside and waited for 5 minutes to allow the shredded potatoes, flour and seasonings to fully blend.

at this time.

Qingqing and Weiwei also completed the task of picking onions. They looked like they were begging for praise and said, "Daddy, look, I've picked my onions!"

"Wow, my Qingqing and Weiwei are so awesome, they really helped me a lot..."

Huang Jun took the onion with a smile, washed it carefully, then cut it into chopped green onions and put it aside for later use.

He took a small bowl, beat three eggs into it with one hand, and stirred the egg liquid thoroughly with chopsticks until the egg liquid took on a uniform yellow color.

Set aside for later use.

Huang Jun poured a proper amount of oil on the non-stick pan.

He picked up a ball of the prepared vegetable paste and pounded it back and forth with his left and right hands to shape it into a round ball.

He used his fingers to dig a hole in the middle of the sphere, forming a small groove to reserve space for the egg liquid.

As the temperature in the pan rises, tiny bubbles begin to appear on the surface of the oil…

When the oil is at the right temperature, he turns the heat to low.

He put the prepared potato pancakes into the pot one by one.

moment…

There was a slight sizzling sound when the oil came into contact with the potato pancakes.

He poured the beaten egg liquid into each small hole, and the egg liquid slowly flowed into the groove, filling every small hole of the potato pancake.

There is no need to pour it too full to prevent the egg liquid from overflowing during the heating process and affecting the overall appearance.

Turning the heat back to medium, Huang Jun patiently fried the bottom of the potato pancake until golden brown, with the edges slightly curled up, presenting an attractive color and texture, and the aroma wafted out.

"smell good…"

Huang Jun listened to the two little guys' baby voices and said without turning his head: "It's delicious. It will taste even better when it's ready~"

"Mmmmm, I want to eat it right away!"

After hearing what he said, the two kitchen helpers became even more greedy.

Huang Jun smiled and added an appropriate amount of water to the pot, which just covered one-third of the potato cakes, providing a steam bath for the potato cakes, allowing them to slowly mature and become softer in the steam.

Cover with lid and cook over medium heat until the moisture is reduced.

five minutes later…

When the egg liquid has completely set and taken on an attractive golden color, Huang Jun turns the potato pancakes over one by one. At this time, the lid is no longer needed.

Fry over medium heat for another 2 minutes.

When the ingredients are fully cooked, they can be served.
