Chapter 280: Fried Egg

Translator: 549690339

“Strange Balls, give them a try!”

Outside the kitchen, Shen Qian, having completed her cooking, placed the Strange Balls she’d made in front of five young men and women, her face full of confidence.

The steaming Strange Balls carried a fragrance produced by deep-frying, but within this deep-fried aroma, there was also a strange stink. The two smells intertwined in the air, giving the five youngsters a peculiar impression.

Indeed, the dish’s name was not misnamed.

Sun Yan was the leader among the five. It was he who proposed that the group join the Leaping Fish Banquet. At this moment, smelling the scent in the air, the expression on his face immediately became strange.

This smell…

If you say it stinks, it doesn’t seem that unbearable.

But if you say it’s fragrant, it doesn’t seem to quite fit either; at least, it doesn’t whet the appetite.

However, the crispy golden outer layer seemed rather tempting to look at.

He couldn’t help but look to his other four companions, hoping that someone would be the guinea pig and taste it first.

“I’ll give it a try!” Lan Le, another youngster, was quite proactive. Smelling the scent wafting in the air, his face showed an eager willingness to try.

The other four showed an expression of “That’s so you”.

Very familiar with Lan Le, they knew that he had a certain preference for odd foods.

Under the expectant gaze of his friends, Lan Le picked up a ball, blew on it gently, and put it in his mouth.

“Crunch—”

The crisp sound was so clear in the quiet restaurant.

Soon, Lan Le, who was chewing, showed an expression of enjoyment.

Underneath the crispy shell, the balls were filled with delicious juice, carrying a meaty aroma and the fragrance of various condiments. These fragrances were intertwined with the peculiar stink, immediately filling his mouth and nose.

That feeling…

Lan Le’s expression became even more surprised. Although he didn’t say anything, every inch of his face seemed to be expressing the deliciousness of the dish.

Seeing this, the other four no longer hesitated and began to eat.

Soon, the restaurant was filled with their praises.

Shen Qian watched with a giggling smile, her face showing a bit of glee.

She felt that she’d done well again!

“Sizzle–”

The crisp sound of frying echoed in the kitchen.

As Qin Lang poured the beaten egg into the hot oil and stirred it in circles, it quickly floated to the surface of the hot oil. The golden and fluffy fried egg was scooped out.

Compared to a fried egg, a deep-fried egg may also be fried in hot oil, but the cooking process is completely different.

First, the eggs need to be beaten evenly, the egg white and yolk thoroughly mixed together, and ideally even a little foamy—the result will be more fluffy after frying.

Second, deep-fried eggs need hotter oil. The egg should solidify within seconds after it’s poured in.

In this way, the deep-fried eggs made from the same ingredients are much larger than fried eggs.

The fried eggs that Qin Lang scooped out were slightly soft at first, but after cooling down for a bit, they became harder and more crispy on the surface, stacked together they looked particularly appealing.

“Gurgle…gurgle…gurgle…”

One…two…three…

Dan Bao was counting the fried eggs seriously, and the rich aroma of fried eggs wafting in the air made it swallow.

It quickly went closer to the fried eggs. In doing so, the smell of Luosifen floating in the air became lighter, replaced by the more intense aroma of fried eggs.

Fried eggs will protect me! Luosifen, retreat!

“Gurgle!”

Nine now!

Soon, Qin Lang finished frying the ninth fried egg. Dan Bao looked at the remaining egg mixture in the bowl.

This egg mixture was not enough to make a standard-sized fried egg.

“Extra meal for you.” Qin Lang smiled, poured this egg mixture into the hot oil, and made a smaller fried egg, “This one is also yours.”

“Gurgle!”

Yay!

Dan Bao suddenly felt a surge of happiness.

“Crack!”

I want an extra serving too!

The spicy flavor from the side just squeezed the lemon.

“Wait a second, I’ll give you extra snail meat!” Qin Lang held the bowl steady.

“Crack!”

No problem!

Spicy continued her work satisfyingly.

While Qin Lang was preparing the chili oil on his side, the soup accelerated for six hours also completed its final simmering.

Skim off the foam, discard the bones and chicken, and spread the snail meat over the rice noodles.

The over-sized fried egg was placed at the topmost layer of garnish in the end.

Spicy stared intently at one of the bowls of Luosifen. The covering fried egg couldn’t hide the fact that this particular bowl had the most snail meat.

This one is mine! No one dare compete with me for it!

Dan Bao kept its eyes on another bowl of Luosifen, which had a smaller fried egg atop the regular sized one.

This bowl of Luosifen, belongs to me, Dan Bao!

The chili oil mixed with the simmered Luosifen soup was slowly poured into nine big bowls until it submerged all the ingredients.

The unique flavor of the Luosifen soup intertwined with the distinct stench of sour bamboo shoots, perfecting the peculiar and magnificent taste of Luosifen.

Smelling the aroma in the air, a satisfied smile appeared on Qin Lang’s face.

“Let’s go, let them taste Luosifen.”

“Gurgle!” Using its thought waves, Dan Bao picked up a bowl of Luosifen, an expectant expression on its face.

It was looking forward to seeing the young faces outside the kitchen showing the same expression it had when it first tasted Luosifen.

Spicy next to it couldn’t help but smile, even the bubbles over its head started to flicker. It seems that it was of the same mind as Dan Bao.

The kitchen door opened.

The moment the nine bowls of Luosifen were placed on the dining table, the distinct scent of Luosifen forcefully dominated the entire space of the restaurant, causing Shen Qian and the five young people who just tasted the Strange Balls to change their expressions on the spot.

That smell…

Shen Qian had already tasted Sour Bamboo Shoots in the kitchen and was doing better than others. The other five who hadn’t experienced anything like this before changed colors.

Four of them showed resistance on their faces, but the fifth, Lan Le, was more excited.

“Try it, Luosifen.”

Qin Lang beckoned, then sat down before the table and started eating.

It was already lunchtime and he was also hungry.

Dan Bao and Spicy each made their way to their individually marked bowls of Luosifen, and also began to devour their meals.

Right after them, Lan Le and Shen Qian followed suit.

The other four, even though they were hesitant and conflicted, swallowed their impulse to run, and gingerly started to taste it.

At first, they looked disgusted.

But after they tasted it, their facial expressions started to change.

Qin Lang noticed and let out a smile, casually taking a bite of the fried egg.

The initially crispy texture of the deep-fried fluffy egg became tough and sticky after soaking in the soup, absorbing the delicious snail soup. Once bitten, the juice bursts within the mouth.

The unique taste is hard to describe with words, but if one were to say its… Refreshingly delicious!

The rice noodles melt in the mouth with a slight suck, carrying a light milky aroma. The sour bamboo shoots are crispy and appetizing while the fried tofu skin has a similar texture as the fried egg but more chewy and sticky.

The different textures of the ingredients provide a layered effect during the chewing process, with a unique flavor permeated throughout.

Does it stink?

It smells great!
