Farming? I'm making a killing with my fairytale vegetables!

Chapter 229 Video Recording

Li Yuan waited for several days, and finally the package arrived. His friends also brought the package to his house.

Everyone gathered together, ready to film a video together.

"Hey Yuanzi, look, you're not a big internet celebrity yet. Actually, so many of us have helped you. We're all your team members. Don't forget us when you become more successful."

"That's right. Once you become famous, I'll quit my job and become your assistant, so I won't have to work myself to death anymore."

"Haha, great! When I become successful, I'll arrange jobs for all of you."

Li Yuan listened to his friends' jokes and joined in the laughter.

First, everyone should unpack the package and then arrange the purchased alfalfa in a row.

"It looks quite pretty, there are even flowers on it."

"Hmm, it looks quite fresh."

"That's right, these all look pretty good."

Li Yuan looked at the alfalfa in front of him and said, "There's quite a lot of alfalfa here. Let's make something simple to eat today. We can also stir-fry the bok choy while we're at it."

"Okay, then you can set up the video first, and we can shoot some footage while we're at it."

"Okay," Li Yuan nodded and handed the phone to his friend. After setting the phone up, they could start preparing the cooking.

"I looked it up online, and it turns out that alfalfa can not only be used in cold dishes, but also in similar ways to chives, such as making pies, cooking, steaming, stir-frying, or using it as filling."

"In that case, let's make more and have a whole alfalfa feast."

Of course, that's what they say, but they must have prepared some other dishes as well, they just weren't included in the video.

Li Yuan was mainly responsible for cleaning and preparing the alfalfa, while his friends took care of the other dishes in the blind spot of the video feed.

Although Li Yuan will remove background noise later, he will still talk during filming, so if you don't want your face to be shown or your voice to be recorded, please stay a little further away from him.

Li Yuan is currently kneading dough. He's thinking that he can make some noodles today, and if he takes a detailed picture, they'll look pretty good.

He did film a video, and learned some editing and shooting techniques, so it actually looked quite professional from the outside.

"As you can see, I've already chopped the alfalfa for the filling. It looks similar to chive filling, but I want to warn you that it tastes really good. The process is similar to making other pies. Now we just need to mix and season it."

As Li Yuan spoke, he demonstrated. After shaping the pies, he neatly placed them into the oil pan and fried them until golden brown on both sides, releasing a fragrant aroma.

After the others smelled it, they started whispering among themselves, "Hmm, this actually smells pretty good."

"You know what, it smells pretty good, not bad at all, like a chive pancake."

"I think they all grow like grass. Once chopped into filling and seasoned, they should all be about the same. It's just that chives will definitely be more fragrant."

"Then saying this is as good as saying nothing at all, so it must be more appealing."

"Hey, are you making fun of me?"

A group of people were chattering away, but Li Yuan, as the head chef, was completely unaffected.

He patiently prepared each dish, including cold alfalfa salad, alfalfa vermicelli pancakes, alfalfa rolls, and stir-fried alfalfa. He basically made several different alfalfa dishes.

After doing all that, he paused the video briefly and then asked the others.

"Are the other ingredients ready? Bring them over so I can chop them up and start cooking in a bit."

"Alright, alright, I'm just waiting for you to start cooking. Once it's done, we can eat right away."

"That makes sense, come and get ready."

Li Yuan took the ingredients that everyone had prepared and started cooking. Since the ingredients were already prepared, cooking was quite fast, and the dishes were ready in no time.

Of course, the bok choy that Qi Siyuan bought was also stir-fried, and this time the aroma was much more pronounced.

"Hmm, it smells really good, quite nice."

"That's right, it seems like this bok choy tastes pretty good. I'll try it later."

"Okay, I'll try a few bites later."

"Alright, alright," Li Yuan said, finally putting the vegetables into the dish and turning off the heat. The job was done.

"Great, that's really good, we can eat now."

Li Yuan moved the plates of alfalfa aside and placed a bowl of rice next to them.

"Why don't you guys start eating first? I'll come over after I finish filming this last bit of feedback video."

"Oh no, no need, what's the rush? We'll just watch you finish filming first. Besides, do you usually offer us samples?"

That's true. Li Yuan usually records his friends' reactions when filming food videos, but he blurs them out.

"Okay then, I'll start recording the video now."

After Li Yuan finished speaking, he got into the zone and said to the exquisitely arranged plate in front of him, "Hello everyone, I've recently watched some videos about wild vegetables, and I thought I'd give it a try, so I bought some wild vegetables. This kind of wild vegetable is called alfalfa, as we saw earlier."

"Actually, I've had this before, but I forgot to take a video. So today I'll introduce it to you."

"Look everyone, this is an alfalfa spring roll," Li Yuan said, picking up a piece and presenting it to the camera to show everyone its appearance.

The alfalfa spring rolls resemble delicate golden tubes, their golden wrappers gleaming with an enticing sheen. The soft, white wrappers are hollow on both sides, filled with finely chopped alfalfa, now cooked through and slightly oily—they look quite delicious.

After holding the pastry around once, Li Yuan took a bite. A "crunch" sound rang in his ears as the pastry crumbled between his teeth, like stepping on a thin layer of ice. Crumbs fell in a flurry, showing a clean and crisp texture. Li Yuan immediately showed an expression of delight.

"Mmm, it smells so good, it smells just like a cold salad. It's so delicious! The surface is a soft dough that I made myself. And then, tender alfalfa leaves burst out, releasing a burst of freshness. The leaves are gently coated with egg and flour, giving off a grassy aroma mixed with a hint of saltiness. It's so delicious, the more you eat, the fresher it gets."

The fresh and vibrant flavors intertwine and collide with the crispy crust in your mouth, becoming more and more fragrant with each chew. After swallowing, the rich aftertaste lingers on your lips and teeth, making you eager to take another big bite.

Li Yuan said it tasted delicious, and his expression showed enjoyment. He was very happy to see his friends with it.

After finishing his meal, Li Yuan didn't forget about them. He waved, and the group went over to try some.

"As you can see from my performance just now, let me invite a few of my friends over and see what they think."
