Traveling through 70, reborn officers with various pets

Ou Ruoxing followed Aunt Wang to the cafeteria and prepared to start working.

"Ou Zhiqing, we were originally thinking of cooking thicker porridge for lunch, and adding vegetable dumplings and scrambled eggs. Do you have any good suggestions?" Aunt Wang said as they walked.

"Besides me, the people who cook for us include your Aunt Cui'e and Aunt Zheng. The other one is Aunt Caihua who challenged you. She is the mother of the team leader of the fourth team in the village. She is usually very efficient at work, otherwise we can't let her stay in the cafeteria to cook."

After listening to Aunt Wang's words, Ou Ruoxing gained a certain understanding of the aunts and sisters who cooked in the cafeteria.

Then he smiled and said, "Don't worry, Auntie! I will work hard and live up to your trust."

No matter how much you say, it is not as real as producing results.

A group of five people came to the cafeteria, and seeing the food on the table, Ou Ruoxing became a little worried.

Oh my god, I thought what Secretary Wu and the team leader said about "enough food" meant there was plenty of food, but who knew it was still a fixed quantity.

During the autumn harvest, there were nearly three hundred people working in the village, and if you include the educated youth, there were more than three hundred people in total.

This amount of food, estimated to be less than half a pound per person, is huge. People who do physical work have big appetites, so it would be a bit difficult for them to be full with this amount of food.

Because the autumn harvest started on the first day, the production team also wanted to let everyone eat better, so they prepared 50 kilograms of rhubarb rice, 100 kilograms of flour, 20 kilograms of potatoes and a dozen cabbages, plus 5 kilograms of pork and 30 eggs.

"Ou Zhiqing, look at the few ingredients you have, what are you going to do with them?" Aunt Cui'e took the opportunity to ask, wanting to test Ou Ruoxing.

Ou Ruoxing was not afraid either. Looking at these ingredients, she thought carefully about how to fill her stomach.

"Hello, Aunt Cui'e! Since we want to cook porridge at noon, it's just because we are worried that there won't be enough ingredients. If it's too dry, everyone will be tired, hungry and thirsty after working. Drinking some porridge can moisten their throats."

"We don't have much vegetables to begin with, and even less meat. If it's sliced ​​thinly, each person can only get one or two slices. So I thought, why don't we chop the meat into minced meat, cook the yellow rice in a big pot, add potatoes, cabbage and minced meat, and make a vegetable and meat rice."

"With 20 grams of flour, we can make big steamed buns. Knead the flour a little softer, and the steamed buns will be soft and delicious. As for the remaining cabbage and eggs, we can make cabbage and egg drop soup. Make more so that everyone can have a big bowl. It can be eaten with vegetable and meat rice and steamed buns, and it will also be filling."

In his previous life, Ou Ruoxing had eaten many big pot meals, and this vegetable and meat rice was particularly popular and filling.

In this day and age, people have less oil and water and eat more. If we only cook, there won’t be enough to share and everyone won’t be able to eat enough.

After hearing what she said, Aunt Wang, Aunt Cui'e, and Aunt Zheng thought about it for a moment and then agreed.

"My dear ladies, we still have some lard here. When you knead the dough later, add some lard. It will be fragrant and delicious, and a little oily."

Hey! No one had thought of this, and it actually works.

A little oil is better than some dry steamed buns.

Everyone started to do what they said. Ou Ruoxing and Aunt Wang began to wash the glutinous rice, potatoes and cabbage, while Aunt Cauliflower, who was strong, was also assigned to knead the dough with Aunt Zheng.

The remaining Aunt Cui'e started to chop the meat on the chopping board.

After washing the rhubarb rice, put it in the pot and start cooking. When it is about 70% cooked, add potato cubes, cabbage shreds and minced meat and mix them evenly. Add a little lard to increase the oil and water, and then add an appropriate amount of salt for seasoning.

After it was done, I put the lid back on and continued to cook. Even though I used a large pot to cook so many ingredients, it took three pots to finish cooking.

After cooking, the vegetable and meat rice can be directly placed in the rice cooker to keep it warm, freeing up the pot for steaming buns and making soup.

Steaming buns is not a technical job, you just need to control the heat.

Everyone worked together and managed to prepare the staple food half an hour before noon. Only the soup was left.

Three large pots were burning at the same time. Ou Ruoxing first put the cabbage in the pot and fried it until cooked. Then she added three large pots of water and started to cook. After the water boiled, she began to add the beaten eggs, beating them in circles with long chopsticks while adding them. In this way, the whole pot of soup was filled with egg flowers. After seasoning, she sprinkled a handful of chopped green onions and a little starch water, and the thick and fragrant cabbage and egg soup was ready.

As soon as all the lunch came out of the pot, the cafeteria was filled with the aroma of food. Just smelling it made my appetite grow.

"Okay, everyone, take a break. There are still about fifteen minutes before dinner. Let's serve some rice and fill our stomachs first," said Aunt Wang.

It is customary to organize meals in the canteen during the summer and autumn harvests every year. The kitchen helpers all know that if they wait until everyone else comes to get meals, they will not have time to fill their own stomachs.

So I would eat something to fill my stomach when everyone came to eat before work, then pack the food in lunch boxes, and after everyone had eaten and the canteen was cleaned, I would take the food back home to eat.

Generally speaking, those who help in the kitchen will leave a little more for themselves. This is the default and no one has any objections.
