"Let me give it a try."
Han Sen did not have Dragon Lady's power, so he went into the kitchen and used ordinary tools to cook.
Spring Autumn Meat Stir-Fry had three ingredients. One was called spring vanilla, another was autumn mushroom, and the third was the Thunder Beast's loin.
The Thunder Beast's hide was very hard. Although it was not a high-class xenogeneic, ordinary knives and swords could not damage its scales. Its meat, however, was very delicious. That was especially true of the Thunder Beast's loin. It was tender and thin, and it was the best stir-fry dish.
The spring vanilla was crisp, while the autumn mushrooms were fragrant and smooth.
Both of them had the effect of removing the bloody smell.
When the three were combined into one dish, not only would the fragrance of the meat make the spring vanilla and autumn mushrooms more mellow, the meat would also become fatty but not greasy because of the grassy taste of the two, giving it a refreshing and sweet taste.
The dish looked easy. All he had to do was put the three ingredients into a pot and stir-fry them. As for the seasoning, he did not need much. He just added a little salt and sugar to taste it. It was a combination of the original flavors of the three ingredients.
But the dishes that looked easy were the hardest to make. The spring vanilla was the most delicate, and the stir-frying time needed to be controlled very carefully.
If it was too long, the spring vanilla would lose its crispness. If it was not long enough, the grassy smell would not be forced out, and it would be difficult to swallow. Without the grassy smell to counteract the bloody smell of the Thunder Beast's meat, the Thunder Beast's meat would be inferior.
The Thunder Beast's meat was very tender, so he could not stir-fry it for too long. The autumn mushroom was not afraid of being stir-fried for too long, but it could not be cooked for too long. Otherwise, the natural mushroom smell would be mostly gone.
The three ingredients required three different levels of heat, and the time it took to put them into the pot was very strict.
This was only the control of the heat. There was also the processing of the materials. Both the spring vanilla and autumn mushrooms had to be cut into slices. In order to ensure that the heat was uniform, the autumn mushroom slices had to be thinner while the spring vanilla slices had to be thicker. Only in this way could the ripeness of the two be similar in the same time.
The Thunder Beast meat needed to be processed first, so the Dragon Lady directly helped Han Sen to process it, so Han Sen didn't need to worry about it.
It looked like a simple dish, but in fact, there were many taboos. Dragon Lady didn't think that a layman like Han Sen could make Spring Autumn Stir-Fried Meat well, but Han Sen always had some surprises, so Dragon Lady didn't slight him.
Han Sen often barbecued meat, but he rarely stir-fried meat. But for some reason, after seeing Dragon Lady stir-fry Spring Autumn Meat, he seemed to have understood something. He had an indescribable confidence.
Although he didn't have the help of Dragon Lady's magical kitchen utensils, Han Sen was able to use ordinary kitchen utensils with ease and didn't feel unfamiliar at all.
The kitchen knife rose and fell rhythmically in Han Sen's hand. It wasn't fast, but it wasn't slow either. It had an indescribable rhythm and beauty. Even Dragon Lady felt that Han Sen's movements were like an art.
"Martial arts and cooking are interconnected. Han Sen's knife skills are very high. Even when he's cutting vegetables, it's so beautiful. But cutting vegetables well doesn't mean that he can stir-fry a good dish. How is he going to stir-fry this plate of Spring Autumn Stir-Fried Meat?" Dragon Lady stared at Han Sen's movements, but she was thinking to herself.
Han Sen didn't have so many distracting thoughts in his mind. He naturally cut the ingredients and then heated the pot with oil. Everything was so smooth and natural, as if he had done it thousands of times.
However, it was Han Sen's first time seeing Dragon Lady's Spring Autumn Stir-Fried Meat. It was a strange feeling.
Dragon Lady kept looking at Han Sen. As she watched, her eyes slowly widened. Han Sen's steps were unexpectedly precise. Or perhaps, it could no longer be described as precise. The rhythm of Han Sen's stir-frying could be described as perfect. Even if Dragon Lady were to do it herself, she couldn't guarantee that she could do it better than Han Sen.
"When did this guy learn how to cook?" Dragon Lady was surprised. This level of culinary skill was definitely not something that could be learned overnight.
Just by looking at the time Han Sen took to put the ingredients into the pot, she knew that he already knew the characteristics of the ingredients like the back of his hand. He had reached a realm where he could do as he pleased.
Soon, Dragon Lady's surprise turned into doubt. Han Sen's processing steps were the same as hers, but later on, there were some slight differences.
Originally, the spring vanilla should be put in the pot after the autumn mushrooms, but Han Sen reversed the steps and put the spring vanilla in the pot first. From Dragon Lady's point of view, this was clearly wrong. That way, when the autumn mushrooms were cooked, the spring vanilla would be overcooked. It would lose its crispness, and the taste would no longer be fresh.
"If he stir-fried it like this, this plate of Spring Autumn Stir-Fried Meat will be ruined." Dragon Lady secretly shook her head.
However, something that surprised Dragon Lady happened again. Han Sen didn't put the autumn mushrooms into the pot to stir-fry. After stir-frying the spring vanilla a few times, he took it out of the pot and put the stir-fried meat and spring vanilla on a plate.
"You haven't put in the autumn mushrooms yet?" Dragon Lady quickly reminded him.
"It's not too late to put them in now."
After Han Sen said that, he put the thin slices of autumn mushrooms on top. They completely covered the spring vanilla and thunder beast meat below.
Dragon Lady was shocked. She didn't know what Han Sen was going to do. Han Sen heated up the pot and added oil. His eyes were fixed on the oil in the pot.
When the oil reached a certain temperature, Han Sen raised the pot and poured the hot oil on the plate.
The golden hot oil was poured onto the snow-white mushroom slices. The mushroom slices were heated to a tender yellow color. It was like a warm layer of gold had been added to them. A refreshing fragrance also came out.
The fragrance of the mushroom, oil, meat, and spring vanilla mixed together. Suddenly, an unbelievable chemical reaction happened. It formed a vegetable fragrance that made people drool. Even Dragon Lady couldn't help but salivate when she smelled it. She couldn't help but swallow.
"It's done. Please have a taste." Han Sen put the spring autumn fried meat in front of Dragon Lady.
Dragon Lady was shocked. She picked up her chopsticks and picked up a piece of spring vanilla. When she put it in her mouth, her beautiful eyes widened. She looked incredulous.
The spring vanilla absorbed the autumn mushroom's fragrance and meat's fragrance.
With its own fragrance and crispy texture, it created a strong impact on the Dragon Lady's taste buds.
The appropriate amount of salt and sugar was repeated in her mouth.
It teased the sensitive parts of her taste buds.
Dragon Lady couldn't help but salivate.
Before she could taste it, she couldn't help but chew and swallow.
Dragon Lady couldn't wait. She picked up a piece of autumn mushroom and thunder beast meat and put them in her mouth. The impact of the flavor was even stronger. The meat juice and the mushroom fragrance filled her mouth. In an instant, it completely conquered her taste buds. It was like the delicious flavor had exploded in her mouth.
"You … How did you do that?" Dragon Lady looked at Han Sen in disbelief. It was like she didn't recognize him.
