Chapter 144 - Chapter 144 - 144 Stir-fried Beef with Green Onions (2/2)

The entire process took less than half an hour, and a fragrant dish of onion and beef stir-fry was presented by Chen Yu.

In contrast, over at Zeus Alliance, they had just finished making their salt-baked snails, the mousse foie gras was still being processed, and the other dishes were halfway done.

Fang Yuan on the hosting stage was seeing Chen Yu cook for the first time.

Even though they had been married for so long, Fang Yuan barely stayed at home, not to mention seeing Chen Yu cook, she had hardly even spoken a few words to him.

Now standing at the hosting station with such a clear view, Fang Yuan suddenly discovered a unique charm in Chen Yu.

Especially when he was cooking, his movements were as smooth as flowing water, effortlessly graceful; for some reason, it was quite enchanting.

Fang Yuan hurriedly shook her head, “Now the Chinese chef here has already served a dish, and I can smell the fragrance from where I’m standing.”

The six gourmands had long been captivated by the aroma lingering at the scene and couldn’t wait to take a bite.

“This onion and beef stir-fry looks simple, but during stir-frying, the meat’s fibers and sinews were completely broken down, soft yet chewy once you take a bite.”

“To use such simple ingredients and make such a delicious dish in such a short time, it seems that Chinese cuisine is indeed a notch better.”

“It’s sesame oil! With freshly extracted oil like this, it can maximize the fresh taste of the ingredients.”

…

One dish of onion and beef stir-fry made the six judges rave about it for a long time.

It was only at this moment that the dishes from Zeus Alliance were just ready.

Having just eaten such steaming, delicious food, the judges were somewhat resistant to switching to cold dishes.

Out of professional integrity, they rinsed their mouths and began tasting meticulously.

However, their expressions while eating the onion and beef stir-fry were a stark contrast to now.

Although only two of the six judges were Chinese, they unanimously cast their votes for Chen Yu’s side.

After that round ended, both sides proceeded to the halftime break.

Fang Yuan on the hosting stage finally breathed a sigh of relief, but as soon as she stepped down, she dashed towards the restroom like a madwoman.

“Stay calm, I must stay calm!”

Chen Yu and the six Chinese chefs leisurely made their way to the break room.

Master chef Wang Hai patted his chest with a look of relief tinged with fear.

“I was really a bit worried that we might lose this competition, but I didn’t expect Little Chen’s cooking skills to be so extraordinary, turning decay into magic, making that onion and beef stir-fry so delicious.”

The other five master chefs also offered continuous praise.

They had checked the piece of beef at the start of the competition.

Though it was of quality, being genuine Wagyu, it wasn’t the perfect cut of Wagyu beef.

It was filled with sinews and even a little gristle.

Unless cooked in a pressure cooker for a long time, it would be tough to chew.

Who would have thought that Chen Yu, just by simple stir-frying, could perfectly deal with the sinews and gristle.

Chen Yu was so lauded that he started to feel a little embarrassed, sitting there and repeatedly waving his hand.

After a brief rest, they entered the arena again, but on the original judges’ seat, a few more figures had appeared, among them was Bai Qiu.

It appeared she was a special guest.
