Li Xiaofan explained with a smile: "This pot is making curry chicken, and this pot is making Nyonya chili sauce!"

Pan Mengshu smelled the fragrance, drooling and said, "Just because of this fragrance, it must be delicious!"

"Wow, it's so delicious!" When Qian Ruoxue and Liang Qin entered the door, the curry potatoes in the pot had been boiled until soft and rotten. Li Xiaofan added the coconut milk he bought yesterday, added a little salt, and boiled for a while. The golden and fragrant Nyonya Chicken Curry is ready.

"Student Li Xiaofan, the craftsmanship feels good, just because of this fragrance!" Liang Qin praised.

"Hehe, it's my first time trying it too, I made everyone laugh!"

Smelling the alluring fragrance, everyone couldn't hold back anymore: "Li Xiaofan, can I have a taste?"

"Okay! Everyone, take out this big bowl of chicken curry and try it to see how it tastes!"

"You don't need to take it out, let's do Fa-rectification on the spot!"

Han Ziang and the others had already started to attack with a pair of chopsticks each.

Li Xiaofan said anxiously: "Pay attention to hygiene, come, I'll give you a taste, don't worry!"

After Pu Zhigao, Pan Mengshu and Han Ziang tasted it, they couldn't put down their chopsticks anymore.

“Oh my God, I’ve never had such delicious potatoes!”

"Wow, wow, wow, delicious, delicious! Another piece of chicken leg, it's so delicious!"

"No, I want to bring a bowl and a spoon, and eat some curry soup with it, it's so delicious!"

"Mom, I'm going to cry, I've never eaten such delicious curry chicken!"

Seeing everyone's exaggerated expressions, Li Xiaofan wiped off the sweat from his forehead and grinned: "Really? Be more serious, how does it taste?"

"Need to say! It's awesome! Li Xiaofan, I'm starting to admire you now!" Han Ziang said as he tore a chicken leg, and his white T-shirt was dripping with golden curry sauce.

Pan Mengshu asked: "Student Li Xiaofan, what did you say about Nyonya dishes just now? What kind of stuff is this Nyonya?"

Li Xiaofan smiled and said: "Isn't our class going to take an internship on the Alpha Shenzhou cruise ship next month to go to Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand? I saw that in the itinerary we will have a stop in Malacca, Malaysia. This Nyonya cuisine is a unique representative of Malacca. dishes, so I will learn how to cook and try..."

The practice of this Nyonya cuisine comes from the encyclopedia of food appreciation skills in his brain system.

"After talking for a long time, you still haven't made it clear what Nyonya is?"

"Don't worry, I'll explain to you slowly! Nyonya refers to the mixed descendants of Chinese and local aborigines who settled in Malacca, Malacca in the early [-]th century. They are descendants of the marriage between ancient Chinese immigrants and Southeast Asian indigenous Malays. , most of them are originally from Fujian or Guangdong Chaoshan area, men are called Baba Baba, women are called Nyonya Nyonya..."

"Classmate Li Xiaofan, you actually understand these things?" Liang Qin asked curiously.

"Hehe, because I'm a big foodie, I've done some research, and we're going to Southeast Asia and Malacca next month, so pay more attention!"

Han Ziang asked, "My third son, how did these Chinese come to Malacca in the early fifteenth century?"

"According to records, in the early 15th century, the fleet led by Zheng He of the Ming Dynasty made seven voyages to the West, stopped in the Malay Peninsula many times, and stationed at Baoshan Pavilion in Malacca for five times. Some followers also stayed in the local area and became the first Chinese to settle in Nanyang. They intermarried with the local aborigines and Malays and became the first generation of native Chinese in Nanyang. Men were called Baba and women were called Nyonya. According to the data, Baba The Nyonya gathering areas are mainly concentrated in Malacca, Penang and Singapore in Malaysia. We can just visit these places next month!"

At this time, Han Ziang also found a lot of Nyonya information on the Internet, and he read:
"Although Baba and Nyonya are far away from the mainland of China, they have inherited the cultural traditions of the Chinese nation. They pay attention to filial piety and the order of the elders and young. They are very Chinese in terms of cultural customs and religious beliefs. They use the language, clothing and diet of the Malays. They are used to integrating into their daily life. Hundreds of years have passed, most of these mixed-race children born in the local area can no longer speak Chinese, they speak a mixed language of Chinese Fujian dialect and Malay. This has 600 Nyonya culture is the Chinese culture that has a history of more than [-] years and is dominated by Nanyang Chinese female culture. Today, only in Malacca, Penang, and Singapore in Malaysia, the traces of Nyonya culture are relatively complete... I read the online These costume photos are very unique and beautiful. I must go and have a look next month, by the way, I want to live broadcast and participate in the world live broadcast competition with a wild boar!"

"Then you guys talk slowly, I'll continue cooking!" Li Xiaofan laughed.

……

After more than 20 minutes, in the anticipation of everyone, Li Xiaofan served many delicious Nyonya dishes one after another.

"Everyone, this big bowl is curry mee sua. Come on, everyone, try it! Curry mee sua is the most famous noodle dish in Nyonya cuisine. Spicy, the noodles are very flavorful!

"Li Xiaofan, wow, it's so delicious!"

"It's really, really delicious! It's so delicious, full of flavor and strength!"

"Student Li Xiaofan, what kind of sauce is used in this dish, I think this sauce is very tasty and delicious!"

Li Xiaofan explained with a smile:
"This special sauce in Nyonya cuisine is the soul of the food. I cook this sauce according to the teaching in the book. It is based on chili, garlic, and shallots, and added turmeric, tamarind, and chestnut. It is made. Before cooking, all the ingredients must be smashed together to form a sauce, and then put into the pot and slowly fried with oil until the flavor and aroma are absorbed by the oil, and the overall flavor is harmonious due to the wok gas. Use this Only when the sauce is used to cook the ingredients can it bring about the effect of enhancing the flavor!"

Five minutes later, he brought out a plate of black fruit stew.

"Everyone, please try this black fruit stew!"

"Wow, it's so delicious again, it's so delicious! Li Xiaofan, what is this black fruit?"

"Hehe, I bought this black fruit from a small shop opened by a Malaysian overseas Chinese in Hongqiao Gubei yesterday. Black fruit is a tall tree that originally grew at low altitude in Malaysia. It is said that the characteristic of this tree is that the whole plant is poisonous The local people take the seeds of the black fruit tree and undergo about 10 days of soaking and fermentation to remove toxins and become seeds with a strong taste, fruity sour taste, and a texture like minced meat. Use it to add Nyonya sauce and spices to prepare Stewed pork and chicken are the most representative Nyonya dishes!"

A few minutes later, he brought out another plate of spiced schnitzel.

"Everyone, please try this plate of five-spice fried meat rolls!
