Chapter 119 Coconut Chicken
Lin Jiaojiao was in a dilemma as she looked at the towering coconut trees. How could she get the coconuts down?
"Sister Jiaojiao, I found some coconuts! There are still many here."
She looked at him and saw that he was holding a yellow coconut in his hand with a happy look on his face.
Is this a koi?
The same thing happened when he was fishing before. He was able to catch tuna. Although the fish were not big, she still admired him very much.
But she could only catch some small fish, which made her depressed for a long time.
After the coconut was solved, she quickly picked up dry leaves and branches around her and found some flat stones.
She first built a stove with stones. At this time, Fu Qi also moved the wooden table from the boat down and placed it next to the stove. She also took the large kettle from the boat house and put it away.
She also went to the houseboat to exchange for a large casserole, and put red dates, wolfberries, ginger slices, chicken and some other condiments, as well as bowls and chopsticks in the casserole, and then took out a chopping board and knife from her backpack.
He put his things away and came to the boat to wait. She handed him a chopping board and a knife, and she herself got off the boat with a pot of ingredients and walked to the table.
After putting everything away, she started to process the coconut, while he took out the ingredients from the casserole and put them away, then poured some water from the kettle into the casserole and started to clean it.
After she processed the coconuts, she poured the water from three coconuts into the casserole, then threw the firewood into the stove and took out a fire starter to make a fire.
After putting the casserole on the stove, she asked Fu Qi to add firewood. Because the table was not high, she could only squat to cut the vegetables, which was a bit laborious, so she had to quickly return to the boathouse to exchange for two small wooden stools.
After giving one to Fu Qi, she began to process the ingredients with peace of mind. She first took out the coconut meat from the coconut shell with a spoon, then cut it into strips and put it directly into the pot.
Because what she was exchanging was already chopped chicken pieces, she directly poured the chicken, red dates and chopped ginger slices into the pot and covered it with a lid.
Then she started to prepare the dipping sauce. She first chopped the garlic into fine pieces, then chopped the chili and coriander, and put them evenly into two bowls. Then she picked up a small lime and squeezed the juice of two limes into each bowl, and finally poured in the soy sauce.
She listened to the pot gurgling all the time, and her stomach started to growl.
After waiting for a while, she picked up the two wet towels, held the handle of the casserole with one hand, and placed it on the table where the wet towels had been folded.
"Fu Qi, come and eat."
Fu Qi came over carrying a stool. He watched her open the lid, sprinkle wolfberries on it and stir it evenly with a spoon. Then he picked up two empty bowls and scooped a bowl of coconut chicken soup for each of them.
"Sister Jiaojiao smells so good! I feel like I've gained weight recently."
She turned her head and looked at him carefully, then pinched his little face again, "Not enough, you still need to grow some more meat. What other vegetables do you want to eat? Cook some more after you finish the chicken."
He thought for a moment and said, "Hmm... I also want to eat enoki mushrooms and baby cabbage."
"Okay, I'll make it for you after you finish eating these."
She sat at the table, took a sip of the coconut chicken soup first, then picked up a piece of chicken and put it in the dipping sauce she had prepared. It was so delicious in every bite.
Since she had soup to drink, she didn't open the coconut water. She could only say that her cooking skills had improved by leaps and bounds in the past few days, and the meals she cooked were delicious.
You can add whatever seasoning you want, there is no need to hide it. I have been frying spicy squid as a snack these days, and the base is so delicious that it would taste even good on the soles of shoes.
The happiest thing these days is that she uses a scoop net to catch squids. When she turns on the flashlight at night, all the squids gather near the light. She also exchanged it for a luminous bait for Fu Qi to fish.
She had a good harvest of squids these past few nights, and she could never catch all of them. It was a pity that she didn't have the time or space to stop, so she dried all the squids into jerky.
Seeing that the chicken was almost finished, she went to the boathouse to exchange some food that Fu Qi wanted to eat, and she exchanged it for some beef rolls and took them out together.
He picked up the enoki mushrooms and baby cabbage, washed them, put the remaining chicken and coconut meat in the pot into his bowl, and then carried the pot to the stove where it was already burning.
Then she put the vegetables into the pot, and when it was boiling and ready to be served, she put the beef roll in, then she picked up the wet towel and brought the pot back to the table.
Fu Qi had finished all the chicken in the bowl, but he didn't feel full. Instead, he stared at the enoki mushrooms in the pot. He really liked eating mushrooms.
They both ate a big meal, and the sky turned red. They moved the things back to the boat, and then she carried the bamboo basket on her back.
While it was still light, the two of them walked along the coconut grove on the beach to pick up coconuts that had not yet rotted. On the way, they saw a coconut crab, which scared Fu Qi.
After listening to her explanation, Fu Qi turned around and looked at the big guy lying on the coconut tree and asked, "Sister Jiaojiao, can I eat this? Doesn't it grow up eating coconuts? Is its meat as sweet as coconuts?"
She was at a loss for words: "Well, I've only eaten it once before, um... I don't really like it, but some people think it's delicious. It depends on personal taste."
He retracted his gaze and said, "If Sister Jiaojiao doesn't like the food, I definitely won't like it either."
After the two of them filled a bamboo basket, they walked back along the coast. Fu Qi pulled up his trouser legs and felt the waves crashing onto the shore from time to time, looking at the gorgeous sunset and the people walking side by side.
He felt so happy and really wished time would stay at this moment forever.
After Lin Jiaojiao put the bamboo basket on the boat, she took out two sets of shovels and buckets, handed one set to Fu Qi, and then started to catch fish nearby. She was sure to have a good harvest this time.
Fu Qi followed her example and dug the shovel into the mud and sand, then turned it over and began to look for shells or something like that.
"This is Fu Qi, pick this up."
He looked at the round white shell she was holding and responded, "Okay, I got it."
As expected, there were a lot of things on the deserted beach. After shoveling for a while, she had picked up a lot of clams and other beautiful shells and snails that she couldn't name. She would take these things back to her elder brother and Yizhi and the others.
They will definitely like it.
"Sister Jiaojiao, come quickly! I saw a crab under this reef!"
She looked towards the source of the sound and realized that Fu Qi had run so far away. She hurried over and exchanged a pair of tongs in the bucket as she ran.
"Where is where?"
"here."
Following the direction of his finger, she saw an orchid crab hiding in the crevice of the rock, and was once again certain that he was a koi.
"Fu Qi, you are so amazing. You can even find this thing."
Fu Qi blushed when he was praised, and he must find more crabs to let Sister Jiaojiao praise him.
She picked up the tongs and clamped down on it, picking up the orchid crab with complete ease. She was so proud of herself. This was not something she directed or acted out. It was a pity that she couldn't record this glorious moment and post it online.
"Sister Jiaojiao, there is another one here."
"I'm coming."
