My Husband, a Marshal: Conquering the Stars with My Culinary Arts-Chapter 706 - 238 Special Way of Interaction

After driving Ke Lian out of the kitchen, Du Xixi first sighed at the large pool of water on the floor, and then just as she was about to find a mop or something, she saw a flat little machine moving over by itself, pausing slightly over the water, and when it left, the floor was already dry.

"Madam, this is a new model of household robot sent by Your Majesty. In its compact mode, it can clean surface dust and stains, including dirty water. In its expanded mode, it can be as big as I am and do housework more quickly and conveniently." 2569 explained as it noticed Du Xixi’s somewhat surprised expression, having just served a plate of braised pork.

In the Star Era, household chores are generally done by butler robots. Any butler robot, even the lowest level one, is skilled at handling chores. Therefore, such specialized household robots are quite rare in the Star Era.

thought it wasn’t strange for Du Xixi to be surprised.

However, Du Xixi’s surprise was not about this "newly emerged" household robot in the Star Era, but its appearance was exactly like the robotic vacuums on Blue Star. Moreover, according to 2569, the household robot’s compact mode function was indeed highly similar to a robotic vacuum.

Despite her surprise, Du Xixi didn’t care much after a few more glances. After all, this wasn’t very difficult high-tech; the main effort was in the creativity. Since Chen Yin had been to Blue Star, he could naturally provide this creative idea, and others could think of good ideas just by observing life more.

Du Xixi turned back to continue handling the soaked and particularly plump lanthola beans, which were carefully selected by 2569, without any defects or black spots. However, to Du Xixi, these lanthola beans were slightly larger than those on Blue Star, and she wondered if the taste would be different when cooked.

At the top "crescent" of the lanthola bean, Du Xixi cut a moderate slit with a small knife. Every bean needed to go through this process so that hot oil could enter the inside and fry them thoroughly both inside and out.

had already finished today’s lunch. After all, with only Du Xixi and Ke Lian in the house, there wasn’t much food needed. Seeing Du Xixi busy making new delicacies, 2569 covered those dishes with insulating covers and then eagerly squeezed over to help.

"Madam, are lanthola beans delicious?" 2569 knew Du Xixi was going to make lanthola beans with these beans, but had never heard Du Xixi describe their taste, so it was curious, holding a small knife to cut slits with its mechanical hand while raising its electronic screen towards Du Xixi.

Du Xixi smiled slightly, her hands moving skillfully with techniques almost ingrained in her bones: "Of course they are delicious. These lanthola beans are a classic dish to enjoy with a drink. They’re fragrant, crispy, and delightfully crunchy, perfect even as a snack for casual nibbling."

Du Xixi herself didn’t have a special preference for the taste of lanthola beans. Since she made it herself, she wouldn’t make it unless it was delicious, and as long as it was tasty, Du Xixi herself would enjoy it.

Du Xixi laughed while she and 2569 used a net bag to drain water from the newly slit fresh beans, gently swaying them up and down. The water slowly dripped from the bottom of the net bag. When Du Xixi saw it was about right, she told 2569 to continue draining while she took a large pot and poured in nearly two-thirds of the cooking oil.

Pouring in so much oil wasn’t Du Xixi being extravagant and wasteful; it was simply that there were many beans, and after controlling the amount, it was just about the right amount.

"Can’t it be done in two batches?" 2569 was a bit puzzled seeing so much oil, though it never questioned Du Xixi’s decisions; it just couldn’t quite understand.

Du Xixi gently explained: "It can be, but I’m used to frying them all at once. Besides... the lanthola beans I make aren’t done after just one fry. This oil may seem like a lot, but I need to use it at least three times."

This was the unique trait of the Du Family’s lanthola beans. Unlike other lanthola beans, which dare not claim to be the most delicious, the Du Family’s beans are certainly the crispiest. With a crunch, the outer skin isn’t hard, nor is the inside soft. You can almost taste the deliciousness of the lanthola beans in just a few bites.

The secret to this crispiness lies in multiple rounds of frying in oil.

The first fry removes the moisture inside, but not excessively, frying until they’re half-cooked before being taken out. After taking them out, sprinkle a thin layer of seasoning, just a light layer, then proceed to the second round of frying.
