The number one must be hot pot, and there is no need to explain it. In China, hot pot is the first choice for dinner, whether you come from the south or the north, coastal or inland. Most friends studying in China are absolutely ready to respond when it comes to eating hot pot.
Although this "one pot fishing" diet is not easy to be accepted by crooked nuts, slowly many foreign friends will join our camp. A group of people ate hot pot around the table, temporarily forgot the heavy study and talked about everything. It's a pleasure.
The biggest advantage of eating hot pot is that it is simple and convenient to operate. Hot pot bottom and dip can be bought in supermarkets in China. Wash and cut vegetables and meat. There is no induction cooker abroad, so you can use a rice cooker instead. Even students who don't have any cooking foundation can do it well.
2. Soy milk
Soymilk is also a "healthy drink in China" that I often drink abroad. I recommend it to you because it is simple and convenient. Usually you can do it yourself in the dormitory. protein is rich, which is very suitable for students who like sports and fitness.
After buying soybeans, soak them for more than 8 hours (personal experience: the amount of water should exceed the height of the best fingers of soybeans), put the soaked soybeans into a blender (it would be more convenient if there is a soymilk machine, but I haven't bought it yet), add water to make a slurry, and filter out the bean dregs with gauze. Then pour the filtered soybean milk into the pot and boil it (remember to remove the floating foam after boiling). In addition, students who like different flavors of soybean milk can also consider adding red dates and medlar to make different flavors.
3. Egg milk cake
Egg custard is my favorite home-cooked dish. It is rich in protein, vitamins and various minerals needed by human body. It also has the functions of strengthening brain, improving intelligence, protecting liver, preventing arteriosclerosis, preventing cancer, delaying aging and caring skin. Blabla ... Actually, I say so much, mainly because it is simple and quick to make, and it takes less time than making a bowl of noodles.
After the egg is broken, add a little salt and warm water (remember that it must be warm water, and cold water will turn into egg flowers when it is rushed in). Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and prick a few small eyes (plastic wrap is to prevent water vapor from falling into the bowl and prick a few small eyes to breathe). Then steam in a pot for 10 to 15 minutes. You can put chopped green onion or other ingredients according to your personal preference.
4, preserved egg lean porridge
Every time I stay up late or stay busy all night, I always miss the hot rice porridge that I can drink at home every day, especially the preserved egg lean porridge, which has eggs and meat, and is delicious and delicious. This is one of my favorite porridge.
Preserved eggs can be bought in foreign supermarkets in China. I suggest you buy hard-core preserved eggs, which are hard to cut and soft to melt when boiled. Of course, the meat should be lean and finely cut, otherwise it may not be cooked thoroughly. When cooking porridge, add a small amount of salt according to taste. In addition, adding chopped green onion or shredded ginger can balance the greasy feeling of meat. Cook a bowl of preserved egg and lean meat porridge late at night, and you will feel very satisfied after drinking a bowl, and you will be full of energy the next day.
The dishes to be recommended next are all hard dishes. Students are going to take notes (knock on the blackboard).
5. Fish in white sauce
Boiled fish is the only Sichuan dish I can cook. At first, I ate this dish in a restaurant outside, probably because Sichuan food is inevitably less original in the north, which makes people feel delicious. I completely fell in love with this Sichuan dish until a friend of mine in Chongqing personally cooked me an authentic Chongqing boiled fish. Watch and learn from friends' practices, and you can make this authentic Sichuan dish by cooking it a few more times.
Compared with the dishes recommended to you before, boiled fish will be more troublesome to cook and require higher ingredients. It may be difficult to get together abroad, so if conditions don't allow, you have to go to a Chinese restaurant to solve your problem. This practice is difficult to explain. I found a teaching video for you-"Not Lonely Food Aesthetics: Boiled Fish". Interested students can follow the video to learn.
6.stewed beef brisket with potatoes
The sixth dish recommended to everyone is stewed beef brisket with potatoes. The reason for recommending this dish is simple-the ingredients are easy to find. In the United States, potatoes and beef are popular menus and can be found in any supermarket. Other ingredients, such as star anise, cinnamon bark and cinnamon leaf, can basically be bought in supermarkets in China, so it is entirely possible to add "luxury Chinese food for overseas students". Compared with boiled fish, the method is simpler, and the pressure cooker is the best equipment, which saves time and effort.
Practice: 1, beef brisket cut into pieces, potatoes peeled and cut into pieces. 2. Pour the right amount of salad oil into the pressure cooker. When the oil is hot, add garlic cloves and ginger slices and stir-fry until fragrant, then add star anise, cinnamon, cinnamon leaves and brisket one after another. 3. After stirring, sprinkle with proper amount of soy sauce, cooking wine and water overflowing the brisket. 4. Cover the pot, close the air valve and stew in the pressure cooker for 15 minutes. 5. Pour in potatoes, add appropriate amount of salt and clear water that overflows the breast of potatoes (it can be delicious without salt before), and continue to stew in the pressure cooker 15 minutes. 6./kloc-After 0/5 minutes, bring to the plate, sprinkle with chopped green onion, and you're done.
7. Braised pork ribs
This dish must be familiar to all the students, and it is also a hard dish for many children from snacks to big ones. But eating too much doesn't mean you can cook. When I go out, I often miss my mother's braised pork ribs. Later, I followed the recipe I found online, but it was actually quite good.
Practice: 1. After the ribs are soaked in clear water for 5 minutes, they are rinsed several times to remove blood. Put cold water into the pot, add cooking wine and ginger slices at the same time, and blanch for about 1 minute after the water boils. Take out the ribs, rinse them with cold water, and then control the water to dry for later use. 2. The next step is a very important step-stir-frying sugar (drying three tones). Whether you cook "braised pork ribs" or "black-roasted pork ribs" depends on whether the color of stir-frying sugar is in place. Heat the pan, put the oil in, add the rock sugar, heat it with low fire and keep stirring (the sugar color is stirred with low fire, but it is easy to stir with high fire). 3. When all the rock sugar is completely foamed, put the ribs into the pot and stir evenly. Add scallion, star anise, fragrant leaves, pepper and ginger slices, continue to stir fry, add boiling water until the ribs are not eaten (cold water tends to make the meat tight and difficult to taste), and then add soy sauce and soy sauce. 4. After the fire boils, turn to low heat and stew for about 30 minutes. When there is 1/3 soup left in the pot, add sugar and stir well, then add salt to taste. 5. Collect juice over high fire, stir-fry constantly during the period, and let the soup be evenly wrapped on the surface of the ribs. 6. The last step is to take out the ribs and sprinkle with chopped green onion to start.
8. jiaozi
There is no doubt that I am a jiaozi eater! Jiaozi takes all kinds of stuffing. As a traditional food in China, it can be seen in almost every traditional festival and solar term. Although students in the south may eat less, they are definitely in line with most people's tastes. Therefore, jiaozi can't be absent from the recommended recipes.
Needless to say, jiaozi's practice should be familiar to students. At the weekend, I made an appointment with some friends, bought good ingredients, and packed my own jiaozi in the dormitory, which not only satisfied my desire, but also was a good social activity. If you are really greedy but don't have time to make it yourself, you can also go to the Chinese supermarket to buy frozen food and make it yourself in jiaozi (I have to say that the Chinese supermarket is really a blessed place for international students in China).
