When he was puzzled, the cook brought a pot of golden dishes. Li mi took off his chopsticks and ate them. Then he said, "Ouch!" a blood bubble had been scalded on his lips. At this time, the chef sent another bowl of cold water. Wei Zheng took yams and rinsed them in the cold water. Then he put them into his mouth and asked Li Mi to taste them in this way. As soon as Li mi eats it, it's sweet, crisp and tender. It's very delicious. This dish is Chinese yam.

After eating this dish, Li mi suddenly realized that "you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry." then he calmed down and planned the battle plan carefully with Wei Zheng. As a result, Xingyang was captured at one stroke and Wang Shichong, the city's commander-in-chief, was captured alive.

Key:

1. There are three methods: first, oil frying. Oil can be added first, or oil and sugar can be put into the pot at the same time. The weight ratio of sugar to oil is generally 150 g Sugar and 5 g oil. Second, stir fry with water, the weight ratio of water and sugar, generally 150 grams of sugar, 25 grams of water. Third, oil and water mix fry method, sugar and oil, water ratio of 150 grams of sugar, 20 grams of water, 5 grams of oil. In the above three methods, you need to crush the sugar before frying. As soon as the sugar is put into the pot, you need to stir constantly. When you see that the sugar bubbles first, and then the bubbles become smaller, and the dissolved sugar becomes thinner and light yellow, you can put in the main material. No matter what kind of frying method is used, the firepower should not be large. Pay attention not to make the sugar hanging on the edge of the pot, so as not to affect the color.

2. Frying and frying sugar with main ingredients must be completed at the same time, which will affect the effect of wire drawing and the quality of finished products.

3. The bottom of the dish must be smeared with oil. The dish must be followed by a bowl of cold boiled water. When eating, dip in water to make the dish crisp, sweet and delicious without sticking teeth.

Features: Sweet outside and smooth inside, rich in nutrition. Stir fry the syrup slowly with low heat, then pull out the silk.

Practice 3

Tips

1. According to the texture of raw materials to determine whether to hang paste, such as apples, pears, oranges and other fruits, water content is large, in the next pot frying, must use egg white and starch paste, the raw materials wrapped, otherwise the raw materials internal water, will stick together; potatoes, yams and other raw materials, containing more starch, the next pot frying, do not need to hang paste.

2. When the oil is seven years old, put the raw materials into the pot, deep fry until golden brown and remove.

3. Stir fried sugar. In the pot, put the clean bottom oil, heat the medium heat, add sugar, stir with the spoon, make the sugar evenly heated, stir fry until the sugar is light yellow. As the water evaporates, bubbles emerge. When the bubbles are large and large, leave the pot away from the burner and make the foam smaller and the color deepened. Scoop up the sugar juice with a spoon and pour it down. If it can form a line, it means that the sugar has been fried well. At this time, quickly turn the raw materials in the pot to make the sugar juice evenly wrap the raw materials. The volume ratio of sugar to raw materials is 1:3. According to the weight of raw materials, the sugar used for block and flaky raw materials is about 50%, while the sugar used for strip and pill raw materials is 30% ~ 40%. The amount of paste is more than that of no paste.

4. After the syrup is fried, the raw material must be hot. If the raw material is not hot, it will make the syrup cool, so it can't be pulled out. For this reason, when making shredded vegetables, two frying pans should be used, one for frying sugar and the other for frying main ingredients. In this way, it is easy to keep the temperature of the main material so as to hang up the syrup. Do not use a quick fire to make shredded vegetables, in order to avoid syrup overheating, carbonization bitter. If a little honey is added to the syrup, the flavor is better.
