503 Jiang Yue’s Cooking
“No, I still have a cream that needs to be poured on. It’ll look even better then.” After saying that, Jiang Yue began to make the sauce for the squirrel fish.
Jiang Yue poured some oil into the small pot. When the oil was hot, she poured the tomato sauce into it, then added an appropriate amount of white sugar and white vinegar, and then an appropriate amount of water.
She even added a little salt.
After the water was boiled, she added the cream.
The color of the soup became especially bright in an instant, and it was very sticky. Only then did Jiang Yue scoop it out of the pot with a big spoon and pour the hot sauce on the squirrel fish.
The plate of squirrel fish immediately looked like a painting, bright in color and extremely beautiful.
Xue Yan was a bit surprised. He knew that some dishes could be made to look good. In his previous life, he had eaten many good-looking dishes. However, this was the first time he had seen someone make a dish that eloquently.
The sound of grain hitting could be heard everywhere. In the room, Shao Shuting couldn’t fall asleep. In addition, he had already thought about how to submit a letter to the Emperor and write a letter to his sister. He only had to wait for Shiye, his subordinate, to return again.
With nothing to do, he tilted his head and looked through the window facing the kitchen, watching Jiang Yue and Xue Yan cooking together.
He found it interesting to see Jiang Yue’s skillful movements and Xue Yan’s natural movements.
They really weren’t ordinary children.
When he saw the plate of red and beautiful fried fish, he had to swallow his saliva.
It looked delicious.
Shao Shuting found it magical. If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn’t have believed that there were two kinds of children in the world.
Naturally, he was more interested in Jiang Yue and Xue Yan now.
At the same time, he also felt that they were indeed the two little devils he had thought they were. They were just a little bit more different now.
Just as they finished pouring the sauce, Xue Wufu sneaked in from home like a monkey.
Although there were nine dishes, the most attractive and eye-catching one was the squirrel fish. Xue Wufu saw it at first glance and almost jumped up. “What are you guys doing? Why does it look like a flower? It’s beautiful! It’s so pretty! Who would still be willing to eat this?”
“Dinner’s ready,” Xue Yan said with a smile. “Jiang Yue said that there are only a few patterns for the fish, so she changed it to a new one. This fish was cut and fried first, then we poured the sauce. It’s mainly made of tomatoes.”
“Ah, it looks so delicious.” Xue Wufu stared at it without blinking. Then, he ran out like a monkey and started to shout, “Father, Mother, come and see what the kids made! The dishes that Jiang Yue makes are all so beautiful! Mother, it’s much better than what you and Hehua usually do!”
“Really?” Liu Guixia and Li Hehua quickly walked in, pleasantly surprised. When they saw the dishes, they immediately gasped in surprise. “It definitely is much better than what we do. This piece is thin, but look at how the fish was cut, it looks like a flower… You did it right, Xue Yan?”
“No, they were all cut by Jiang Yue. She isn’t injured,” Xue Yan said.
“That’s good, that’s good,” Liu Guixia was very happy. “Jiang Yue really takes after her mother. She’s not that old but knife skills are already so good even though it’s her first time cooking.”
