Chapter 145 (1/2)

”By the way, I bought beef today. Shall we fry steak?” Guo Xiang asked while eating an apple.

”I won't.” Gu Zhennan shook his head.

”I'll teach you.” Guo Xiang smiled. She had a recipe in her mind, but she couldn't control the heat well and didn't want to spoil the beef.

”Good!” Gu Zhennan nodded.

”Wash the beef, cut it into two centimeters thick, don't cut it into small pieces, just a large piece, and then fry it in the pot. Just fry it until medium cooked.” Guo Xiang said.

”Don't marinate?” Gu Zhennan asked.

”There are two ways. What I just said is not pickled. In this way, thicken it with black pepper and mix a sauce. Then pour the sauce on it.” Guo Xiang said.

”The other is to marinate with garlic and seasoning in advance, and then fry it directly in the pot. It's more delicious, but the marinating time should be longer. I'm afraid it's too late now.” Guo Xiang said.

Although both methods are easy to say, she can't do well.

”Yes!” Gu Zhennan nodded as if he understood.

”But our domestic beef is not fat enough and may be a little hard. Can you make it tender?” Asked Guo Xiang.

Gu Zhennan thought and nodded, ”there's a way.”

Great. The person who can cook is good. It's OK at one point.

Gu Zhennan first lit the coal stove, cut two pieces of beef, washed them with warm water, and then took a clean dishwashing towel to suck up the water.

Patted the beef with the back of the knife, took a toothpick and pricked a small hole in the beef, then made some baking soda and water, evenly wiped it on the beef, and massaged it for a while. This is to destroy the beef fiber. The meat will be tender and smooth.

Open half the window and raise the exhaust fan.

Wash the pot, wipe dry the water, and dig a piece of lard down.

Guo Xiang noticed that he didn't buy butter and didn't know if there was butter to sell at this time. Forget it, lard is the same. After all, it's also animal fat. Maybe it's delicious unexpectedly?

The white lard rang and melted gradually. Gu Zhennan shook the pot, spread the oil evenly at the bottom of the pot, put in two cloves of garlic, smell the garlic and put in two pieces of steak.

The meat fragrance slowly floated out of the pot. Guo Xiang stood by and looked at it, swallowing saliva. It was so fragrant!

After frying, turn the steak over, fry the other side, pour some wine on it, and it smells delicious.

”Don't fry it too well. It's not delicious when it's old.” Guo Xiang said.

”Yes.” Gu Zhennan nodded and kept looking.

When it's almost done, you can see that there's a little pink in the middle of the steak. It's almost medium cooked. Start the pot and put the steak on the plate.

It's best not to cut the steak immediately after it's cooked. Let the juice come into the meat, otherwise everything may bleed.

Just take advantage of this time to mix black pepper sauce.

”Make more sauce. You'll have some noodles later. I'm afraid you don't have enough.” Guo Xiang said.

He eats so much that I'm afraid this steak is not enough.

”Good!” Gu Zhennan nodded and began to make sauce.

After a while, the spicy smell of black pepper came out. Guo Xiang moved his fingers and wanted to eat quickly.

When the black pepper sauce was ready, Guo Xiang thought he didn't buy a knife and fork. Alas, the preparation was still insufficient.

”I can't cut this...” Guo Xiang was a little embarrassed.

”Just use a knife.” Gu Zhennan said, holding the plate and pressing the meat with a spoon, he sliced the steak into strips.

Then pour the sauce on it.

”It smells good.” Guo Xiang licked his lips and couldn't wait.
