1934 Fish head curry
“Of course, it’s my idol, head chef Yuan.” Alan Modi didn’t hesitate and was decisive.
“Head chef Dewell is your father, right? You don’t have any confidence in head chef Dewell?” Li Li was a little puzzled.
“It’s not that I don’t have confidence in my father. I’m just too confident in head chef Yuan.” Ailun said.
“That’s good.” Li Li also nodded.”Although head chef Dewell is the chef Jin of the bogus world cooking competition, I also think head chef Yuan is better.”
The current situation was that the whole world thought Dewell would lose, and only Dewell himself thought he could.
What Yuan Zhou was cooking was not curry chicken, but a famous new dish: Curry fish head.
India curry was particular about the combination of spices. To put it bluntly, it was the adjustment of spiciness.
Don’t think that curry is all the same. In fact, curry has many categories, such as red curry, green curry, yellow curry, White Curry, and so on.
Yuan Zhou had tried all of them before. Yellow curry was the most suitable for matching fish heads with fish heads, be it color or taste. The curry that we often see in China is also yellow curry.
The main reason was that the taste of yellow curry was the most suitable for the taste buds of the domestic public.
Dewell had prepared red curry, one yellow and one red, which was really a sharp point against an awl.
The yellow curry was bright in color and the ingredients used were different from the other curries. Yuan Zhou added some local spices to increase the flavor in an original way, such as mint and purple perilla.
The fish head was the fat head fish of the four big families. Yuan Zhou washed the fish head carefully so as not to damage the meat quality. Then, he used the vegetable knife to cut the meat connected to the neck a few times and began to marinate it with the sauce he had prepared.
The next step was to stir-fry curry.
Dewell’s speed was slightly slower than Yuan Zhou ‘S. He was still sorting out the various ingredients carefully, separating the spices one by one, and washing the ingredients carefully. Only then did the preparation work be completed.
Dewell was also very focused in his work. This time, in order to maintain his dignity as a father, he had put in 120% of his effort, which was not easy.
“Stab, stab!”
Clove, fennel, stubble, mustard seed, Dewell ground them one by one in a mortar. From time to time, he would pinch them with his fingers to see how well they were.
The contrast was very obvious. Yuan Zhou was already in full swing and had started to stir-fry the ingredients, while dwell was still grinding the spices unhurriedly in the cold pot.
“This speed is unparalleled.” Allan could not help but complain.
“Head chef Yuan’s speed is well-trained. Even in the previous nine-people meeting, no chef could surpass him.” Li Li added.
It was really so. It wasn’t that Dewell was too slow, but that Yuan Zhou was too fast.
“Cooking doesn’t rely on speed.” Dewell looked at Yuan Zhou from the side and thought to himself. He had a very stable mentality and displayed his best skills step by step.
He placed the chicken into the curry and cooked it. The next thing to do was to wait for time.
About five minutes later.
“Head chef Dewell, I’m done. Please come and try it.” Yuan Zhou took a special plate with a deep groove in the middle and a circle of wide edges outside, which fit the curry fish head perfectly.
“Done?” Dewell looked at Yuan Zhou.
“Yes, please have a taste first.” Yuan Zhou said.
“Alright, I’m coming.” Dewell was also very curious about the food cooked by Yuan Zhou.
Ailun and Li Li were even faster than him. The two of them came to the side as soon as Yuan Zhou finished cooking.
“It smells so good. This curry is really fragrant.” Dewell had just taken two steps when he smelled a strange fragrance, which was very different from the usual curry.
Under the careful tasting, there was not only the rich fragrance of curry, but also the fragrance of meat.
“Curry fish head, is it a Singapore dish?” Dewell saw the fish head at a glance.
It was different from the traditional curry fish head. The top of the fish head was not filled with curry, but only a thin layer of yellow. The rest was around the fish head, with some tomatoes and potatoes beside it.
Yuan Zhou had the ability to maintain the original appearance of every dish, which was clearly different from the India dishes that were always in a paste-like state.
India Food was about “simple ingredients, main seasoning, and cooking method.” In order to match the way of scallion, many dishes were made into a paste so that it was more convenient to eat with scallion or rice.
Dewell noticed that the meaty area below the fish head near the neck had been cut in advance, and it looked like a flower knife. The skin and flesh separated, revealing the White and tender fish meat. The snow-white fish meat was obviously very tender and smooth, and with a little curry, it looked very delicious.
“I’ll try it. ” Dewell picked up his chopsticks and picked up a piece of fish.
As soon as the fish meat entered his mouth, it melted. It was as tender as it looked, with a little curry on it. A sour and spicy smell spread out, matching the fresh and sweet taste of the fish meat. It was very delicious.
The spiciness of the curry was the slight spiciness that Dewell was very used to. He didn’t know how Yuan Zhou dealt with it, but there was a little sour and sweet taste inside, which was very refreshing and appetizing.
“This curry fish head is too delicious.” This was the only feeling Dewell had.
All of Yuan Zhou’s dishes had a unique characteristic, that was, people couldn’t stop eating once they started eating. Dwell was no exception. Originally, he wanted to share his feelings after having a few bites.
However, after eating two mouthfuls, he stopped talking. It was better to eat first before talking, or it would be bad if it got cold.
Dewell ate without a word, and the two people beside him couldn’t stand it.
“Can we eat?” Li Li almost couldn’t contain the saliva in his mouth.
“Let’s wait a little longer,” Allan saw his father eating with such an appetite and became even more greedy. He really liked curry.
The two of them watched Dewell eat. From the fish to the side dishes, soft potatoes, tomatoes, curry, and onions, he ate everything.
“The number of side dishes has been arranged. I can only remember opello who can make Singapore dishes to this extent.”
Dewell and opello were not friends, but they were both top chefs in Asia. As the Vice President of the Asian famous chef Alliance, opello had invited Dewell to join, so the two had interacted before.
As a national treasure chef Singapore, it wasn’t strange for opello’s new dishes to have such attainments. However, Yuan Zhou had really shocked Dewell.
“No, it’s hard to believe, but from the looks of this curry fish head, head chef opello’s cooking skills can’t compare to head chef Yuan ‘s.” Dewell continued to eat.
When there was only half of it left, Allen couldn’t hold back the gluttony in his heart and took the lead to taste it.
Li Li still remembered his own identity. After taking a look at Yuan Zhou and finding that he had no objection, he also picked up the chopsticks and started to eat.
“What?” Dewell came back to his senses and saw that his little turtle was snatching the food. He dropped his chopsticks and changed to a spoon, scooping up a spoonful in one go. He could eat more with this.
“Clang!”
The chopsticks and the empty plate made an ear-piercing sound, indicating that the food battle was coming to an end and there were no more dishes.
“It’s really delicious. ” Allen licked his lips and felt that he had not had enough yet. He prepared to go to Yuan Zhou’s restaurant and line up to order a serving of curry fish head after the meal.
What Allan did not know was that Singapore cuisines had not yet been served on the menu.
“I don’t like eating curry, but only head chef yuan can make something that I don’t like to eat so delicious.” Li Li said.
Then, it was Dewell’s comment. Li Li and Allen’s eyes stopped at the person who had eaten the most just now, who was also one of the main characters of the exchange.
