Chapter 195 Potato Transformation
Chapter 195 Potato Transformation
When my uncle's family came home for the New Year, they had a really good time, especially the two children, who were a little unhappy after the long car ride.
But as soon as they saw the delicious vegetables and fruits, all their unhappiness disappeared, and they even argued and insisted on not going home.
Of course, the uncle and aunt didn't spoil them and brought them home without hesitation, along with a large pile of agricultural products.
Xia Shiyu wanted them to have a good and prosperous New Year.
Jiang Lingran felt like she was living a heavenly life when she returned home during this period.
It feels so good to have a house full of delicious food.
You can choose any vegetables you like at home, and eat different dishes for several days in a row without repeating a single one.
"What are we eating today?" she asked the foodies in her family.
"Let's eat scallion pancakes!"
"Let's have some pickled radish and old duck soup!"
"Okay, okay, then I'll make a scallion pancake and have it with pickled radish and old duck soup."
Jiang Lingran immediately went to get the ingredients and start cooking.
The pickled radishes, duck, and scallions were all ready-made; all she needed to do was bring out some flour. After she finished making them, Yu Tian came in from outside carrying a delivery box.
"Why did you bring another package back? What is it?"
Yu Tian wiped the thin layer of sweat from his forehead and said, "These are potatoes that Shi Yu mailed."
Jiang Lingran exclaimed in surprise, "Wow, the potatoes have already been harvested! It feels like time has flown by!"
Yu Tian sighed, "Yes, it was indeed quite fast, but if we had stayed a few more days, we might have been able to have our first meal right away."
Jiang Lingran shook her head, "That won't work, I have things to do at home. We can only go another time, maybe on a holiday."
"Okay, it's alright, but we have potatoes to eat now." Yu Tian patted the box of potatoes in front of him.
"Okay, then we can take it out and cook it tonight."
"Mom, can you make me some hash browns? I'll take them to my tutoring class to eat," Yu Jing suddenly said as she ran over.
She has a few days left before school starts, but she still has to attend tutoring classes during this time. The tutoring classes aren't too strict, and she can bring snacks, but if they smell strong, she has to eat them outside.
"Okay, okay, I'll make some for you to take with you then."
"Okay"
However, it seems unlikely that will happen today. The food was already prepared, so the family ate it directly with the dishes, and they ate it with great relish.
After taking a big gulp of soup, Yu Tian said, "It's so delicious, especially the duck with the pickled radish. I could drink several bowls of this soup."
Jiang Lingran was also very satisfied. "Who says it isn't? These ducks are really good. We can only hope that Shi Yu will raise more next year so we can buy a few more."
"it is good"
The whole family enjoyed their meal very much.
It wasn't until 7:30 the next morning that Jiang Lingran got up to make breakfast.
Yu Jing's tutoring class doesn't start until after nine o'clock, so she's not in a hurry.
After casually making a bowl of noodles in the morning, she started making hash browns.
It's very simple. Just steam the potatoes until they are soft and cooked through, then peel them and mash them into a puree. Because the potatoes are round and symmetrical, she could peel them easily.
Once it's mashed into a paste, you can add salt, black pepper, flour, etc., and knead it into a dough.
After kneading the dough, roll it into long strips and cut them into small pieces with a knife.
Press them into small round cakes, dip them in egg wash, coat them with breadcrumbs, and fry them over low heat until golden brown.
Jiang Lingran fried two or three plates in one go. Anyway, besides her daughter taking it to her tutoring class, the rest of the family also liked it, so she decided to fry more and eat it later.
After frying, put the portion that Yu Jing took to the tutoring class into a thermos. Although it can be eaten cold, it's more comfortable to eat it warm in this weather.
Because she used a lot of oil to fry potato cakes early in the morning, the smell of fried food filled the room, waking up everyone else in the house who was still sleeping.
"This smells amazing!"
"It smells so good! Mom, what delicious food are you making again?"
"Wow, this smells just like the hash browns I've been craving!" Yu Jing immediately sat up in bed after realizing this; she wanted to eat them!
After getting up, she and her younger brother sneaked into the kitchen, where they watched longingly as Jiang Lingran fried potato cakes.
Seeing their expressions, Jiang Lingran handed each of them a piece.
"Be careful when you hold it with chopsticks, don't drop it."
"This was cooled down before I gave it to you, so please be careful."
"Okay, oh my gosh, it's so delicious." After agreeing, Yu Jing immediately took a bite.
It was so delicious! It was exactly the flavor she had always loved, and it tasted even better than what her mother used to make.
She ate the one with satisfaction, afraid that she might not be able to resist eating it all on the way to her tutoring class.
Thankfully, it was almost time to eat; we had egg noodles.
The eggs were also brought back from the Xia family, so the family enjoyed them very much.
After finishing her meal, Yu Jing glanced at the time, grabbed the insulated food container, and headed out.
"Mom and Dad, I'll be going now."
Jiang Lingran followed her out and gave her a few more instructions, "Okay, be careful on the road, and look around for cars and traffic lights when you cross the street."
"Okay, Mom, don't worry (o^^o)" Yu Jing replied playfully before happily leaving with her schoolbag.
After arriving at the tutoring center, Yu Jing began studying intensively.
She mainly came here to get extra help with math and physics, hoping to get higher scores on her exams.
The tutoring classes here are quite comfortable, not particularly expensive, and the teachers are very good. It feels like great value for money.
Moreover, Yu Jing has made new good friends here, and it's quite fun to attend classes together every day.
As usual, the teacher taught for an hour and then gave everyone a 10-minute break.
Yu Jing took her insulated lunchbox and went to the lounge with her friend.
When her friend Xiaoshu saw Yu Jing's insulated lunchbox, she took out her own snacks as well.
"You brought lunch today? I was just planning to bring some snacks so I could eat something nearby later at noon."
Yu Jing opened the insulated box. "Hehe, you don't know this, do you? This is a potato pancake that my mom specially made. It tastes especially delicious. I brought it here to satisfy my craving. Otherwise, my brother and dad would have eaten it all by now if I went home."
"Wow, really? I definitely have to try it."
After saying that, Xiao Shu put down the potato chips in her hand and wanted to try the potato pancakes.
She picked up a golden-yellow potato pancake with her chopsticks; its bright color made it look delicious.
He swallowed hard and couldn't resist putting it in his mouth.
