Siheyuan: Domineering life

Chapter 155 Silly Zhu loses
Yang Jun no longer watched them handling the ingredients, but sat at the place where Sha Zhu usually drank tea. He took out a cigarette and held it in his mouth, looking at the busy people with a smile.

At this time, a figure flashed at the back door of the kitchen, and Yi Qiushui walked up to him pretty, her lips moved slightly, and she whispered,
"What is this for?"

"Shh!" Yang Jun put his finger to his mouth: "I'm going to have a good meal today."

Yang Jun gave his seat to Yi Qiushui, then he got up and came to the stove.

At this time, the two of them had already prepared the meat and vegetables.

They both started a fire at the same time.

Heat the pan and cool the oil.

Add the onion, ginger, and garlic to the pot, then put the drained potato shreds into the pot, stir-fry a few times, add the green pepper, and then stir-fry for 15 seconds over high heat. A dish of green pepper and potato shreds is ready.

Just looking at the dishes, it’s hard to tell which one is more outstanding.

The two of them washed the pot and prepared the second dish.

Shazhu makes traditional green pepper meat slices. Put the marinated meat slices into the pot and slide them into pieces, and then add a little light soy sauce.

After the meat is fried, take it out, then heat the oil, sauté the onions, ginger and garlic until fragrant, add the peppers, then put the fried meat into the pot, add the seasonings, and a fragrant green pepper meat slices is ready.

On the other hand, at Nanyi, the dishes he cooked were a bit complicated, and Yang Jun didn't see clearly what he was going to cook.

I saw him rolling the marinated meat in starch, then frying it in the pan when the oil was [-]% hot, and then taking it out after frying.

Then heat the oil in another pot. When the oil is hot, add sugar and vinegar. When the soup changes color, add the fried meatballs and stir-fry for a few times. Then add green pepper and green onion and stir-fry.

Stir-fry at high temperature for ten seconds, then take it out of the pan and put it on a plate.

It wasn't until it was put on the plate that Yang Jun realized that Nan Yi was making a dish of sour pork.

However, this sweet and sour pork dish was a little different from what he remembered. He remembered that the sweet and sour pork was stir-fried with pineapples. In this city in the north, there were no pineapples at all, but Nanyi used sugar and vinegar to make the sour pork. Sweet pineapple flavor.

"Director Yang, please taste it."

Cui Dake volunteered to bring two dishes made by Nan Yi to Yang Jun.

Yang Jun saw that Shazhu's side had also prepared it, and motioned for them to bring it over together.

Yang Jun used his chopsticks to pick up a few pieces of Nanyi's green pepper and potato shreds, and then tasted Shazhu's green pepper and potato shreds. He felt that the two of them were almost the same, and he couldn't tell who was better.

"This dish of green pepper and potato shreds is a draw."

When Sha Zhu and Nan Yi heard this, they didn't react much.

After all, the cooking methods of this dish are very similar, and this dish is also a basic skill that every chef must have. As long as the cooking skills are not too different, everyone can make this dish well.

Yang Jun gave them a draw on this dish, which was expected by both of them.

Afterwards, Yang Jun first tasted Shazhu’s green pepper pork slices, which were tender and refreshing. He was worthy of being the successor of Tan’s cuisine.

Yang Jun nodded while eating, and was about to grab Nan Yi's sour pork.

"Wait a minute, Director Yang."

Nan Yi asked Yang Jun to stop, and he immediately poured a bowl of warm water and handed it to him.

"Director, please clear your mouth."

Yang Jun was stunned for a moment, but he soon understood.

The first thing he ate was the green pepper pork slices from Shazhu. If he eats Nanyi's sweet and sour pork at this time, it will inevitably have mixed flavors, which will reduce the sensation of his sweet and sour pork on his taste buds.

Therefore, Nan Yi asked him to clear his mouth before eating this dish.

Although Yang Jun hasn't tasted this sweet and sour pork yet, judging from Nan Yi's professional attitude towards food, Shazhu has already lost.

Yang Jun drank a few sips of warm water in front of everyone, then gently took a piece of gourd meat and put it into his mouth.

Sweet and sour.

It was sour when he first ate it, but after chewing it for a few times, it was sweet again. This sweet and sour taste hit his taste buds.

For the second dish, it is obvious that Nan Yi is better.

After finishing one piece, he couldn't help but pick up another piece.

"Director, how are you?"

Nan Yi looked at Yang Jun expectantly.Yang Jun nodded and said: "Both are good, but the second dish is still a draw."

"impossible."

"impossible."

As soon as Yang Jun finished speaking, Shazhu and Nanyi objected in unison.

The two of them were very confident in the dishes they cooked, especially Nan Yi. He didn't believe Yang Jun's judgment at all. He grabbed his chopsticks and was about to taste Sha Zhu's fried pork with green pepper.

Not to be outdone, Shazhu took the chopsticks and tried to taste Nan Yi's gourd meat.

Seeing this, Yang Jun quickly took away the two dishes, handed them to Yi Qiushui behind him, and asked him to wait for him in the private room on the second floor.

"The results of the competition are out. There's no need to argue. It's a draw."

"Master He will continue to be the chef team leader of the first canteen, and Master Nan will be the chef team leader of the second canteen. That's it."

"Director Yang, what about me?"

Cui Dake asked anxiously when he heard that Nan Yi had promoted his position as canteen monitor.

"You? Follow Master Nan first."

Yang Jun glanced at Cui Dake with a smile, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly: "I will reassign you a new position another day."

When Cui Dake heard that Yang Jun was going to arrange a position for him personally, he was so happy that he grinned behind his ears.

"Thank you Director Yang."

Cui Dake bowed to him.

Yang Jun looked at the two plates of shredded potatoes, pretended to be embarrassed, took out five yuan and two pounds of meat coupons from his pocket and slapped them on the table.

"The cost of the ingredients you competed with today will be charged to me, and I paid for it."

After Yang Jun finished speaking, he looked at everyone meaningfully, then picked up the two plates of shredded potatoes and left.

As he was walking away, he caught a glimpse of Nan Yi's smile from the corner of his eye.

Yang Jun secretly sighed, this Nan Yi is not simple. Not only is he an outstanding cook, he is also an extremely smart person. I am afraid that he is the only one in the kitchen who can see what Yang Jun means.

When Yang Jun left the kitchen, Cui Dake was floating.

"Nanyi, don't think that you can dictate to me just because the director asked you to come back. I'm telling you, you have to listen to me in the second cafeteria from now on."

Nan Yi shrugged and said, "Who do you think you are? Director Yang just said that you would work under me. Could it be that you don't even listen to the director's words?"

"Nanyi, if you are not deaf, you should have heard it. The director will personally arrange work for me in a few days. I will be promoted by then. Don't blame me for punishing you to clean the toilet."

Nan Yi sneered: "You said it was a few days later, but now you go back to the second canteen and peel potatoes."

"Nan, don't be so arrogant. You'd better be polite to me."

Hearing this, Nan Yi pointed the frying spoon at him and said, "Are you going or not?"

"Nan, let me keep you cool for a few more days."

Cui Dashi saw this and ran away in despair.

Nan Yi put down the frying spoon and walked up to Shazhu. Their eyes met with a provocative look in his eyes.

"Master He, our competition is not over yet."

After Nan Yi finished speaking, he led a group of kitchen workers away.

"Hey, are you scared of being Master Zhu? I'm always here for you."

Silly Zhu yelled at Nan Yi.

Silly Zhu was stunned to see him, but he was not stupid at all. From Yang Jun's eyes just now, he had already seen that Yang Jun favored him and deliberately said it was a draw.

The way Nan Yi looked at him condescendingly just now made him feel insulted and made him very unhappy.

Seeing everyone standing there covering their mouths and laughing, he once again felt how relaxed others were towards him.

"Everyone is so idle, aren't they? Just go and do whatever you have to do."
