Xi Yu looked at Xi Qi who had been watching her from behind, hesitated for a moment, and then typed the word “simple”.

A simple cooking method for the pheasant beast.

The pheasant beast was cut into pieces. Next, it needed to be soaked in clean water, then rinsed with ginger and garlic water to remove the fishy smell, and finally it would be directly fried in hot oil.

Once Xi Yu had completed all her preparations, her dark, round bright eyes stared at the streamer Xiao Kui in the live stream.

These pieces seemed to be quite big! About the size of her finger.

Hers were the real small pieces, comparable to the size of breadcrumbs as the streamer had mentioned.

With hot oil in the pan, she added garlic cloves and green onions to sauté until fragrant. She then added the prepared dried chili segments and Sichuan peppercorns, stirring to release their aroma, followed by ginger slices.

Her mind registered the process, and Xi Yu even arranged these ingredients in order.

But when executing the steps, as soon as it touched the oil, the aroma was unleashed, followed by the chili, creating a strange smell that stung her nostrils.

Tears uncontrollably streamed down her face, but it was a weird sensation. Although it was overpowering, her tongue couldn’t help but swallow in anticipation.

At this point, Xi Qi was coughing. “Sister, what kind of biohazard are you causing?”

Xi Yu glanced over with a calm expression, while Xi Qi pretended to zip her lips shut.

Shaking her head, she indicated she wouldn’t speak further.

As Xi Yu daydreamed, the dried chilies in the oil gradually turned from a bright red to black, looking so strange. The color was similar to the burnt gray color of the last dish she had made.

Xi Yu quickly added the ginger slices, followed by cube chicken pieces, which resembled grains of rice. They floated quickly to the surface. Looking at the streamer waiting for something in the live stream, Xi Yu also waited along with the person.

—Everyone, let’s wait together. This time is crucial for keeping the food at its most delicious state. It won’t be overcooked and lose its original taste or undercooked.

Xi Yu acknowledged this and waited foolishly until a burnt smell appeared.

—Is the streamer a robot that just appeared without any testing? What are you waiting for? For some big shot to revive your dish? Your fried chicken is already in this state, and your heat hasn’t changed at all? You should take it out, host.

Xi Yu hurriedly followed the live room administrator’s instructions but was a bit slow, leading to some burnt food.

Xi Yu looked in confusion at the blackened pieces floating in the pot. What was this?

—Streamer, your fried chicken pieces are too small. You could try cutting them larger. Also, given the size of these chicken pieces, I think you should make meatballs instead of fried chicken.

Xi Yu listened carefully to the administrator’s advice. Xi Qi looked at the charred chicken on the table, her mind running slightly. It seemed to be similar to what her sister had made the first time. Surely it was still edible, right?

“Sister, this tastes really good! It’s better than the last thing you made.”

Xi Qi’s eyes sparkled, and Xi Yu couldn’t help but tuck her loose hair behind her ears. At this moment, she saw the streamer’s fried pheasant beast finally emerge. It was golden and sprinkled with salt, glistening and drawing Xi Yu’s attention.

Meanwhile, Xi Qi was happily munching on her fried chicken.
