Chapter 23 Indispensable
It is not difficult to cook yellow stewed chicken at home.

Stews like these with added ingredients are actually much simpler than some stir-fried dishes, but they are more time-consuming.

Take out the blanched chicken thighs, wash the remaining blood foam on them, heat oil in the pot, add ginger, garlic, star anise and dried chili until fragrant, and then add chicken.

Add a little cooking wine, so that it can better remove the fishy smell.

Add light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, soybean paste, oil consumption, a few grains of rock sugar, and white pepper powder, then stir-fry for color, put the potato pieces in, stir-fry again, and then add water, preferably hot water, Of course, cold water is also fine, it doesn’t matter what you do at home.

Simmer for about 10 minutes to 15 minutes.

Then add some sliced ​​green peppers and let it simmer for a while, and it will be ready to serve. Logically speaking, it is right to add green and red peppers and enoki mushrooms, but now there are none, so I can only make do with it.

[[Cooking] Experience +6]

"Out of the pot!"

Jiang Chengwen opened the lid of the pot, and the aroma came out.

He took a big bowl and put it out, but when he was about to take it out, he was suddenly startled by Jiang Ma who was peeping at the door.

Jiang Chengwen patted his chest and said, "Mom, you scared me to death..."

Jiang Ma stared at him suspiciously, and asked, "Why did I never know that you can cook, and the first thing you know is braised chicken?"

Jiang Chengwen explained: "I learned it online when I was bored. This is also the first time I have tried it. How about trying it?"

Jiang Ma stepped forward, she picked up the chopsticks and added a piece of chicken, blew on it and put it in her mouth.

Her eyes lit up and she said, "It's delicious!"

It is [-]% similar to the ones sold outside, and there is almost no difference in texture and taste.

Jiang Chengwen picked up a piece of chopsticks and tasted it, nodded and said, "Not bad."

"It's really delicious!!" Jiang Ma said excitedly: "It's almost the same taste as the ones sold in the store outside. How did you do it?"

Jiang Chengwen said, "I learned it online."

Jiang Ma stared at him and said, "I stared at you all the time when you were cooking. You look like a veteran. Okay, now even Mom is hiding it from you. Hurry up and recruit the truth!"

"Mom, forgive me!!"

Jiang Chengwen raised his hands in surrender.

In the end, Jiang's mother couldn't find out why, she only thought that the child had grown up and had her own ideas.

Jiang's mother usually eats very little, but today she ordered two bowls of rice for the stewed chicken soup, the more she ate, the more she craved it.

Seeing Jiang Chengwen eating only chicken and potatoes, Jiang Ma couldn't help frowning: "Is there really someone who eats braised chicken without rice?"

Jiang Chengwen listened to what Jiang Ma said, and said, "Mom, do you usually visit the forum too much, why are you talking like a god?"

Jiang Ma shook her head and said seriously: "No, I feel uncomfortable seeing you not mixing rice."

In desperation, Jiang Chengwen could only scoop up a little soup with a spoon and mix it in the rice.

Jiang Ma nodded in satisfaction, and then cooked another bowl of rice.

"I'm so full, uh..."

Jiang Ma said happily: "Son, your craftsmanship is really good!"

"It's okay." Jiang Chengwen said with a smile.

My mother has always had this temperament. There is a saying that a man is a teenager until he dies, but for my mother, a woman is a girl until she dies.

At the age of eighteen, she is as beautiful as a flower.

More than half of the braised chicken is left for Dad.

After eating, my mother didn't let Jiang Chengwen wash the dishes, and rushed to wash the dishes.

Jiang Chengwen took a break and watched a TV series for a while.

But when my mother came out after washing the dishes, her face was a little unsightly, as if she had something on her mind.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Chengwen asked puzzled.

Jiang Ma pursed her lips and asked, "Isn't Mom very useless..."

When Jiang Chengwen heard this, he knew that his mother was thinking too much, and asked, "Why do you think so?"

Jiang's mother raised her chin and muttered: "Look at my mother, I am idle all day, and I can't help your father at ordinary times, and I can't even take care of you. After learning how to cook for so long, I am still in a hurry , can't do anything."

A TV series with children is playing on TV, and the family sits at the dinner table talking and laughing.

Mother Jiang felt even more sad when she saw it. She couldn't even think about taking a table of dishes. Over the years, her cooking skills have not made any progress. She also wants to cook a table of good dishes like in the TV series.

She felt that this was what a mother should do.

"You can't think like that."

Jiang Chengwen straightened up and said, "Mom, what kind of role do you think you play at home?"

When Jiang Ma was asked this question, she thought for a while and replied, "Idlers?"

She does have a lot of free time.

Jiang Chengwen smiled and said, "It's true that I'm idle, but it's valuable to be idle."

"What is idle value?" Jiang Ma asked puzzled.

Jiang Chengwen touched his chin and said: "Mom, you also know that Dad is usually a quiet person. Sometimes he comes home very late, and he is always exhausted when he comes back. But since childhood, our family You have never had any quarrels, and they are all happy and harmonious, and this is due to you."

Jiang Ma was taken aback when she heard this, and asked, "Yes, is there such a thing?"

Jiang Chengwen went on to say: "Mom, you just didn't realize it. Although you don't know how to cook, you have been learning for so many years and have never stopped. My father and I have also seen it and have always supported you. As if you support me."

"The most important thing in a family is the atmosphere, and you are the seasoning agent of our family. If it weren't for you, Dad and I wouldn't be able to chat at all because of our temperament. The house is also lifeless, and you are the seasoning agent of our family. It is also because of you that there are scenes of happy family reunion."

Mother Jiang was a little dazed.

Jiang Chengwen added: "I have never seen any unpleasant things in my family since I was a child. This is the family that many people dream of. Sometimes, a person's value is more reflected in himself than some external factors. , so mom, you have to understand that it is not dad who made you, but you who made this family."

"You are the indispensable one!"

Mama Jiang's maverick nature makes this family full of vitality, which is something she has never discovered.

Jiang Chengwen looked at his mother, but when she saw her looking at him, his mouth suddenly pursed, and his eyes began to turn red.

Jiang Chengwen was startled, and secretly said something was wrong.

He expected that his mother would be moved by these words, but he didn't expect to cry.

"No, Mom, don't cry, I..."

Jiang Chengwen was a little at a loss, he was so flustered that he didn't know what to do.

Mother Jiang reached out to wipe away her tears, sobbing and asked, "Am I really that important?"

"Of course!" Jiang Chengwen nodded.

"Crack."

However, at this moment, the sound of the key turning sounded.

Jiang's father opened the door and walked in, but saw Jiang's mother sitting on the sofa wiping tears.

"Why are you crying!?"

Father Jiang was taken aback, ran up to him in a panic without letting go of the bag, and asked, "Honey, what's the matter? Who bullied you?"

Jiang Chengwen was taken aback when he saw Dad Jiang holding his mother's hand.

Mama Jiang made this family, and in exchange...

Father Jiang also spoiled her for most of her life!
