A Mouthful of Sky-high Fried Rice, Lao Tang Apprenticed on the Spot

The grilled meat makes up only one-fifth of the whole sheep, and most of it is braised in barrels.

Stewing and grilling are the best ways to taste the ultimate deliciousness of mutton.

Also one of the three famous sheep in China, Yanchi Tan sheep in Ning Province is presented in the way of stewed finger meat, and the taste is also excellent.

The Rob sheep that Li Yi bought this time are all lamb meat, which is called unmarried sheep in the Western Regions.

The lamb is more tender, so it has been cooked for an hour and it is already 90% rotten.

In order to maintain the temperature in the soup bucket, Li Yi did not open the lid during the whole process of stewing.

When all the kebabs are roasted and distributed, it's time for the mutton in the bucket.

Li Yi put on a pair of heat-insulating gloves, and came to the soup bucket.

Liu Yifei and the others didn't enjoy the skewers, so when they saw that Li Yi was going to stew the mutton, they trotted over to follow.

"Be careful, don't burn it."

Li Yi reminded him and lifted the lid.

When the lid was lifted, a puff of steam rose up, carrying the fresh aroma of mutton, and turned into a white mushroom cloud, spreading out.

"Wow! It smells so good!"

Liu Yifei and Zhao Jinmai praised in unison, and Zhao Jinmai gulped down a few mouthfuls of saliva.

She only ate one skewer of the barbecue just now, and Li Yi refused to let her eat it.

Li Yi said that mutton is a hair product, and she is drinking herbal tea, so it is not recommended for her to eat too much mutton.

But she has just tasted such delicious mutton, how could she resist it?

Smelling the aroma of mutton in the soup bucket, she asked Li Yi, "Brother Yi, can I have some of this stewed mutton?"

Li Yi hesitated for a while, then shook his head and said, "It's better not to eat it, wait until your throat is healed before eating it!"

"Brother Yi, please, I'll just eat a small piece and drink some soup."

Zhao Jinmai clasped his hands together and pleaded with Li Yi.

Li Yi sighed: "Mutton is fat, didn't I already let you eat a bunch of mutton skewers? I'll make some fried rice with soy sauce for you later, and when your throat recovers, I'll make you a special meal of mutton. Fine?"

"Humph~"

Zhao Jinmai pursed his lips aggrievedly, turned his head and put his arms around Liu Yifei's neck, moaning and pretending to cry and complained: "Sister Yifei, brother Yi won't give me meat."

Liu Yifei patted her cheek and said with a smile, "It's okay, you can watch us eat later."

"..."

Zhao Jinmai looked at her speechlessly, then looked up to the sky and sighed, "The world is so cold!"

Listening to their chatting and laughing, Li Yi had already fished out a whole lamb chop from the bucket.

First use a knife to cut apart the ribs one by one along the gap between the ribs.

Afterwards, Li Yi took out the bone-chopping knife that had just divided the bones, and cut along the gaps opened one by one.

The sharp bone chopping knife easily chopped the lamb chops into individual ribs, revealing a beautiful cross section.

The cut lamb chops are ruddy in color, covered with a layer of tender oil with a uniform thickness, and white brittle bones can be seen on the top.

Li Yi put the lamb chops on the tray, then took out a bag of coarse salt, added a spoonful of broth to melt it, and poured it on the lamb chops.

When cooking the meat, Li Yi didn't put too much salt.

Putting too much salt will cause the osmotic pressure to change, and the water in the meat will be analyzed too much, causing the meat to become too old.

Therefore, when local old herdsmen in the Western Regions cook mutton, they usually only put a little salt to make a bottom, and then pour salt water after it is out of the pot to make up for the salty taste.

This preserves the tenderness and flavor of the meat to the greatest extent possible.

Randomly chopped a white onion, shredded it, and sprinkled it on the lamb chops. Li Yi greeted, "It's ready to eat."

Wu Lei held the chopsticks and the bowl, and leaned over, stretched his neck and stared at the lamb chops on the tray: "Hahaha! Big lamb chops!"

"Do you still want to eat?" Li Yi asked with a smile, "Have you exceeded the calorie limit today?"

"It's okay to only eat meat, the big deal is to run for an extra hour."

Wu Lei chuckled and held out the bowl.

Li Yi smiled and shook his head, this kid has completely given up on the bottom line.

But he wasn't the only one, Huang Xiaoming was also holding a bowl and lined up behind him.

I got one for Wu Lei, and Li Yi asked Huang Xiaoming behind him, "Do you want one or two?"

"I want two!"

Huang Xiaoming stared at the fat and tender lamb chops, and said with a smile: "It's not like you can eat such good lamb every day, of course you have to enjoy it."

Hearing his words, Wu Lei, who was about to leave, suddenly stretched out the bowl again: "I want two too!"

Seeing this, Li Yi gave him another one.

Holding the bowl containing two lamb chops, Wu Lei came to the side happily.

Master Cai came up close and took a close-up of the lamb chops.

"Look! How's it going? Do you have an appetite?"

Wu Lei showed off his lamb chops to the camera.

But the audience in the live broadcast room looked at the light color of the lamb chops, but they had doubts.

"It's really boiled mutton? No sauce?"

"The color is so dull! Is this delicious?"

"You won't just eat it like this? At least it should be served with garlic juice!"

"No, looking at it like this, I really have no appetite."

Seeing the questioning barrage from the audience, Wu Lei's eyes widened: "You guys don't think it tastes good? Do you know how delicious this mutton smells? Oh...sorry, I forgot that you can't smell it."

Hearing his words, the bullet screen was filled with ellipses.

"..."

"I'm heartbroken, old man."

"It's meaningless for you to say that! We also want to smell it!"

"It is recommended to make a garlic juice, cut some minced garlic, add some soy sauce, vinegar, and some sesame oil, it will definitely taste better than this clear soup with little water."

Seeing the audience's suggestion, Wu Lei was also shaken, and turned to Li Yi and asked, "Brother Yi, do you want to eat it with some dipping sauce?"

"Need not."

Li Yi didn't even raise his head: "You'll know once you taste it. This meaty mutton doesn't need any seasoning to enhance its color. It's delicious enough just by its own meat quality."

Hearing what he said, Wu Lei felt relieved, and said to the camera, "I'll try it first", then lowered his head and pinched the lamb ribs, and tore off a rib from the top.

A burst of rich milky aroma burst out from the mouth of the fat and tender mutton. After chewing twice, Wu Lei narrowed his eyes and sighed as if he had been hit in the heart.

"What's wrong?"

Huang Xiaoming also received the lamb chops and came up to him.

"I kind of want to cry."

Wu Lei raised his head and sighed: "This mutton is so delicious!"

Seeing his exaggerated expression, the audience in the live broadcast room were a little skeptical.

"Really? Are you playing us?"

"It looks like boiled meat in plain water, how can it be so delicious?"

Wu Lei looked at their barrage, and said seriously: "I really didn't lie to you, this meat is really delicious! It's also the first time I have eaten such good mutton. It's really like what Brother Yi said, this meat is delicious. It’s so good, it doesn’t need any condiments to match, just relying on its own taste, it’s already fragrant enough!”

Huang Xiaoming watched him interact with the audience, did not speak, and lowered his head to take a bite of the mutton.

Then, his pupils dilated slightly, and he couldn't help blurting out: "Damn!"

Hearing his voice, Wu Lei turned around to look at him, and asked with a smile, "Is that right? Brother Xiao Ming?"

Huang Xiaoming looked at the mutton in his hand, both shocked and puzzled: "How can the meat cooked in plain water be so delicious?"

Hearing their exclamation, Li Yi glanced back at them and said with a smile: "In any place that is rich in mutton, only the best and freshest mutton can be used to make hand-caught mutton. This is the simplest and most delicious mutton. Top notch eating."
