Chapter 367 Grilled Eggplant
Chapter 367 Grilled Eggplant
When Xiao Cao'er thought of the mouth-watering roasted eggplants and roasted corn in her previous life, her throat rolled up and down involuntarily, as if she could already smell the tempting aroma and feel the wonderful taste blooming on the tip of her tongue. She was so greedy that she couldn't help swallowing hard.
"Oh no! How could I forget this? I should have asked them to prepare eggplants and corns in advance!" Xiao Cao slapped his forehead in regret, muttering to himself. Fortunately, the supermarket still has these ingredients. As long as he takes them out quietly now, no one should notice anything unusual, right?
At this moment, Xiaocao'er's mind was full of delicious grilled eggplants and grilled corns, and all her worries were thrown out of her mind. As the saying goes, when delicious food is in front of you, everything else doesn't matter! So she decided to take action decisively.
Xiao Cao'er turned around and shouted to Qiangzi who was busy, "Brother Qiangzi, please help me keep an eye on the chicken wings on the stove. Don't let them get burnt!" After saying that, without waiting for Qiangzi's response, she rushed into the kitchen like a gust of wind.
After entering the kitchen and seeing that there was no one there, Xiao Caoer took out a few eggplants and corns from the supermarket, then walked to the well in the yard and quickly washed them.
The whole process was smooth and did not arouse anyone's suspicion. To outsiders, it looked as if she had just taken these ingredients out of her own kitchen cupboard.
Xiao Caoer came to the grill and resolutely gave up the chicken wings he had grilled before.
I put two eggplants and a corn on the grill. It is relatively easy to grill corn, but it is more troublesome to grill eggplants.
Prepare garlic juice with garlic, shallot, chili, cumin powder, etc.
Slowly roast the eggplant, turning it over from time to time, until the skin turns completely black and the inside becomes soft. Use a knife to cut it in the middle without cutting it through, and use chopsticks to gently loosen the eggplant flesh.
Spread the prepared garlic sauce evenly on the eggplant flesh and sprinkle with cumin powder. Continue to roast the eggplant on the rack for a while to allow the garlic sauce and seasoning to fully blend into the eggplant.
Finally, sprinkle with chopped green onions and coriander and you can eat it.
Qiangzi, who was grilling chicken wings nearby, watched her do it and drooled at the aroma.
"Sister Xiaocao, grilled eggplants are so delicious. I'll grill one and try it later."
"I want to try it too. I want a corn, too." Xiaoxing said.
"Corn is simpler. I'll roast two for you." Xiao Cao'er said and started roasting corn.
To make roasted corn, you only need to prepare: corn, cumin powder, and chili powder.
Remove the outer layer of older leaves from the corn, leaving the innermost layer of tenderer leaves. First, brush a layer of oil evenly on the surface of the corn, and slowly roast it, turning the corn from time to time to ensure even heating, until the surface of the corn is slightly browned.
Sprinkle appropriate amount of salt and cumin powder on it. If you like spicy food, you can also sprinkle some chili powder on it. Continue to bake for a while to allow the seasoning to fully blend into the corn before eating.
Just the grilled eggplant and grilled corn attracted a lot of people to gather around the grill and wait to eat.
But they had no share in the first batch of cakes baked by Xiaocaoer. All of them were given to Old Lady Yang and Master Qi.
The group of guys, young and old, had no objection, nor did they dare to have any objection, because they all knew who was sitting there.
If you want to eat, you have to cook it yourself and have enough food and clothing.
For a while, in addition to grilled meat, the barbecue grill also had grilled eggplants and grilled corn.
It was the first time that Old Lady Yang ate roasted eggplant. After taking a bite, she couldn't help but praise it: "I didn't know that eggplant could be eaten like this. It's really delicious."
"Yes, this is my first time eating it this way too. It tastes good." Mrs. Qi also praised.
While eating the barbecue, Xiao Caoer thought of the beer in his previous life. Barbecue and beer are the best combination.
