Chapter 143 The Chaotic Battle for Pork Chops
"oh oh!"
Zhang Biao belatedly realized what was happening and quickly released Lin Xi.
He scratched the back of his head and said, "Hey, boss, what else do you want? I'll go buy it for you."
Lin Xi rubbed her face, which was red from being covered, and said in a tone that was both annoyed and irritable, "Zhang Biao, you..."
Before he could finish speaking, Zhang Biao covered his mouth again.
Zhang Biao didn't want to hear him refuse!
Lin Xi grabbed Zhang Biao's hands and pulled away from his clutches. "Alright, alright, I won't say anything else. Go to the pharmacy and buy fennel, star anise, bay leaves..."
Lin Xi listed a string of spices, knowing Zhang Biao wouldn't remember them.
But Zhang Biao, he used to be a bodyguard, so he's quick-witted.
He instructed his dozen or so brothers to each memorize the name of one of the spices, then they put down the oregano and ran to the pharmacy, refusing to take any coins, saying they would pay for it themselves.
He's such a pro at getting free meals!
Lin Xi stood there, dumbfounded, watching the group rush towards the pharmacy. It took her a long time to come to her senses.
With a pained expression, she said, "Mengli, we can only have a taste today..."
Gao Mengli glanced at him with amusement, "What a coincidence that you ran into him. And what a coincidence that he found out."
From the very first day they met Zhang Biao, they knew he had an absolute passion for food!
Lin Xi pouted, carried the oregano back to the backyard, and resignedly began washing and rinsing in the kitchen, cutting pork shoulder and tenderloin.
Each piece weighed about 300 grams and was roughly cut into 23 pieces.
When Zhang Biao returned, he helped grind the spices and start the fire, and he did it very quickly.
Even the round iron plate used for making jianbing (Chinese crepes) caught fire.
Zhang Biao meant that a large round iron plate would cook the food faster...
Qian Yan'er arrived early with Fatty and Buck-toothed Jade, intending to help with the dinner preparations. However, upon entering, they found that Zhang Biao and his men had already finished all the work.
Qian Yan'er looked at the busy Zhang Biao and the others, and looked up at Zhang Biao in surprise: "What's going on?"
Zhang Biao chuckled incessantly, "Boss Lin said we're having pork chops today, and he's treating us to a taste!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Xi was utterly bewildered.
This guy is so shameless! He was about to argue with a spatula, but Zhang Biao quickly covered his mouth before he could even finish babbling.
Gao Mengli carried out the marinated pork chops and placed them on the table. "Let go of Xixi, it's time to fry the pork chops."
Zhang Biao then released Lin Xi, who gasped for breath, pointing at him angrily and shouting, "You...you...you..."
He stammered for a long time but couldn't finish saying "You're talking nonsense".
After all, they've been kept covered up enough.
Qian Yan'er, Pang Niu, and Bao Ya Yu's eyes lit up instantly when they heard the words "pork chop".
The boss and his team are making new dishes.
He quickly stood obediently to the side, looking at Lin Xi with anticipation.
Seeing more than a dozen pairs of eyes staring at her, Lin Xi coughed lightly, tied on her apron, and began to fry pork chops.
If you don't have butter, use a thin layer of lard instead.
Lin Xi spread the lard evenly on the iron plate, and the lard sizzled as soon as it was heated.
Then gently place the marinated pork chop on the hot plate. As soon as the pork chop touches the hot plate, it makes a "sizzling" sound.
I flipped the pork chop with a spatula, and both sides gradually turned golden brown.
Place the oregano and cherry tomatoes on a hot plate and fry them together. Slowly fry the cherry tomatoes until they soften and bring out the aroma of the oregano.
Instantly, the entire entrance to the restaurant was filled with the irresistible aroma of food.
The fragrance spread for miles around!
The residents of Xicheng, who were eating at home, smelled this aroma.
Holding the bowl, he rubbed his nose in embarrassment.
Following the aroma, like a zombie, with a vacant yet persistent gaze, their steps moved mechanically.
At the entrance of the restaurant, Lin Xi placed the fried pork chop on a plate.
Drizzle with a special black pepper sauce, and serve with oregano and three cherry tomatoes.
It has a wonderful aroma and appearance!
Zhang Biao, Qian Yan'er, and the others swallowed hard, making gurgling sounds in their throats.
Lin Xi glanced at everyone smugly, "Ladies and children first, you don't have any objections, right?"
Although everyone was reluctant to part with them, there were still so many pork chops left!
Nod quickly, stop arguing, let's move on to the next pot!
Gao Mengli served the pork chops to Fatty and Bucktooth Yu, and also gave Qian Yan'er a portion.
At this point, Zhang Biao became displeased and pointed at Qian Yan indignantly, "Isn't it supposed to be ladies first? Why is Qian Yan'er getting one?"
Upon hearing this, Qian Yan'er immediately shielded the pork chop behind her and proudly tilted her head back at Zhang Biao, saying, "I may not be a lady, but I am a child!"
Zhang Biao: ...
He glanced at Qian Yan'er's height and pouted.
Forget it, let's just treat this shorty like a child.
Stop hesitating and quickly grab your plate and surround Lin Xi. He wants to eat the first piece from the whole pot!
It smelled so good, a scent he had never smelled before!
The pork chop was quickly fried, and he finally got to eat it!
Ignoring the heat, he quickly grabbed his chopsticks, picked up the pork chop, and put it in his mouth.
Zhang Biao took a big bite, and the juices of the pork chop burst in his mouth instantly.
The rich aroma of meat, combined with the spiciness of black pepper, the unique fragrance of oregano, and the sweet and sour freshness of cherry tomatoes, creates a carnival party on the taste buds.
His eyes widened instantly, and he mumbled indistinctly, "This...this is so delicious! The pork chop is as tender as a cloud, yet has just the right amount of chewiness, as if every fiber is swirling and dancing on the tip of your tongue!"
And he closed his eyes in bliss!
Meanwhile, the people who mechanically walked over by the smell belatedly realized that this was Lin's Snack Stall!
The people looked at each other.
He quickly grabbed the bowl and ran to the door.
"Boss, boss, what delicious food do you make at your place?"
"Boss, I want to buy some! Give me one quickly!"
"Boss, I was here first, sell me one, look at me, please look at me!"
Lin Xi was startled by the sudden surge of noisy crowd.
Damn, when did these people arrive?
They each just got one piece, and there are still five or six pork chops left, which are being fried.
Seeing the situation, Gao Mengli guessed that the pork chop was doomed, so she quickly grabbed two pieces from the hot plate.
Seeing the crowded people, Zhang Biao hurriedly shoveled at the food with his plate, but he only managed to get one piece before he was blocked by the crowd.
He quickly grabbed the bowl, leaped, and flew to the rooftop, leaving Lin Xi completely swallowed up by the crowd.
Enjoying pork chops on the rooftop, watching the bustling crowd below!
Seeing that there were too many people, Gao Mengli quickly held out the two pork chops in her hand to Fatty and Bucktooth Yu, saying, "Here you go!"
The chubby girl exclaimed in surprise, ran over, and carried the pork chop to the backyard.
Seeing that Gao Mengli was still thinking about them at this moment, Baoya Yu couldn't help but take a few more glances at Gao Mengli.
Instantly, she felt Gao Mengli radiating light, which made her heart beat a beat slower.
Seeing that the buck-toothed jade was staring blankly at her and not taking the food, Gao Mengli quickly took two steps away.
He took her hand and gently placed the plate of pork chops in her hand. "Ayu, take it to the backyard to eat."
