Despite his confusion, Lin Yi followed the instructions step by step.
After preparing all the ingredients, he poured oil into the pan, added chili peppers, green onions, and ginger, stir-fried them briefly, and then tossed in a handful of fresh mint leaves.
"Hahahaha, Lin Yi's cooking movements are like he's conducting an experiment."
"He's probably also hesitating about what kind of food this mint beef is."
"Let me tell you from experience, mint beef is super delicious. I've been in love with the taste ever since I tried it once."
"I've had mint ribs before, but it's all meat, so I imagine mint beef tastes similar."
"Hmm, I'm a bit hesitant to try it."
Lin Yi flipped the ingredients a few times with the spatula, deciding the mint was ready, and then added the beef, continuing to stir-fry.
Before long, the mint beef was done.
He scooped it up and placed it on a plate.
Meanwhile, Huo Mianmian was still standing by the oven, watching intently.
Lin Yi called out to him, "Mianmian, come over and taste Dad's cooking."
Hearing this, Huo Mianmian ran over quickly.
Lin Yi picked up a piece of mint beef with his chopsticks, blew on it, and fed it to Huo Mianmian: "Ah, open your mouth."
Huo Mianmian opened his mouth like a little bird, accepting Lin Yi's feeding.
He chewed a few times.
As he chewed, his movements paused.
Lin Yi hurriedly asked, "How does it taste?"
Huo Mianmian finished chewing with a puzzled expression and replied, "It feels really cold. Is the beef freezing in my mouth?"
Lin Yi: "Hahahaha! That dramatic, huh?"
After saying that, he took a piece himself and put it in his mouth.
What can I say?
The taste of mint beef is truly magical, with the aroma of beef but mostly the refreshing flavor of mint.
One bite is incredibly invigorating.
"Feed me some!"
"Whoever sees gets a share. Can I have a taste too?"
"I wasn't hungry, but now I'm suddenly curious about the mint beef. I really want to try it."
At this moment, the flower cakes were also done baking.
Lin Yi took the flower cakes out of the oven.
Then he handed one to Huo Mianmian: "Try this too."
Huo Mianmian took a bite of the flower cake and said with a smile, "So sweet~"
Lin Yi laughed, "If it weren't sweet, it wouldn't be called a flower cake."
Saying that, he took a bite himself.
Indeed, the flower cake was delicious. The outer layer was crispy and flaky, while the rose filling inside was soft and sweet.
Taking a bite felt like tasting the essence of spring.
"So tempting! Can't you feed me a bite?"
"I don't have any flower cakes here, just a few cold steamed buns. Waaah, such a stark contrast."
After finishing his two dishes, Lin Yi prepared to go out and check on the other groups.
As soon as he stepped outside, he heard a commotion coming from Shen Feng's house.
