Chapter 893: Chapter 612: With That Aroma, How Can Anyone Sleep? (2)

Additionally, excessively high oil temperatures can easily lead to burnt potato chips.

Frying potato chips is a task that requires patience and must be done slowly.

Only in this way can the moisture within the potato chips be gradually released from the inside out, making the final product fragrant and crispy, and not prone to becoming soggy.

Since there are too many potato chips to fry all at once, he scooped up a portion with a large skimmer and placed them into the oil.

In an instant...

The pot was filled with fine oil bubbles, and the golden oil gleamed and danced on the potato chips, coating each one with a tempting luster.

Skillfully, he picked up the spoon, gently nudging along the bottom of the pot to prevent the chips from sticking or burning, and softly stirred them, separating those that had accidentally clutched together.

Once everything was sorted, he chose to let them be, refraining from further interference, allowing the potato chips to fry freely in the oil until they gradually curled and hardened, producing a crisp, pleasant sound with a light touch of the spoon—the ideal frying effect.

He then picked up the skimmer, fishing out the enticing golden potato chips one by one, draining the excess oil before neatly placing them into a basket lined with oil-absorbing paper.

To ensure the best texture, he gently placed another sheet of absorbent paper over them, attempting to soak up as much oil as possible from the chips.

If potato chips contain too much oil, they can taste greasy.

As the temperature of the chip surfaces gradually lowered and the oil completely disappeared, he transferred them to a clean basket lined again with absorbent paper.

He picked up the spice jar filled with salt and pepper and began to sprinkle the seasoning evenly.

After seasoning one side, he lifted the basket and gently shook it to ensure even coating on the other side as well.

After a careful preparation, the golden, crispy potato chips were finally complete.

"When Qingqing and Weiwei see these, they’ll surely be thrilled. Should I go let them have a sample first..."

Huang Jun was about to carry out the freshly fried potato chips from the kitchen when suddenly the kitchen door was gently pushed open a crack.

Next...

Weiwei’s little head curiously peeked in, and immediately after, Qingqing followed suit, both looking expectant.

Seeing this, Huang Jun chuckled and said, "Oh my, my two little gluttons have been drawn in by the aroma again..."

"Hmm..."

The two little ones didn’t get annoyed at being teased. Instead, their bright eyes blinked at Huang Jun, and they smiled sweetly. Tiantian curiously asked, "Daddy, it smells so good. What delicious thing are you making?"

Huang Jun’s face radiated warmth, "It’s potato chips!"

"Wow, I love potato chips the most!"

Weiwei’s eyes lit up instantly, her little tongue unconsciously licking her mouth corner as she eagerly asked, "Daddy, can we eat them now?"

Qingqing demurely pressed her lips together and softly said, "Daddy, I want some potato chips too!"

"Alright, Daddy understands."

Huang Jun nodded with a smile, agreeing as he slowly approached them, saying, "I was just about to bring them to you! I didn’t expect you to come looking for them yourselves impatiently."

As he spoke, he offered the basket full of chips to Qingqing and Weiwei.

"Oh wow~ they really are potato chips!"

The two little girls were filled with surprise and delight, their eyes widening as they fixated on the potato chips Huang Jun had personally fried.

The golden crust shone enticingly in the light, emanating a rich and alluring aroma, directly wafting towards their noses, making their little mouths involuntarily start to water.

Ahhhh...

Couldn’t hold back!

Really couldn’t hold back!

The two little girls felt an itch to immediately devour the potato chips, but their father hadn’t yet given them the word to eat...

After all, their dad usually had a cautious attitude towards them eating potato chips, often saying they were junk food, and that eating too much would not only affect their health but also their intelligence, making their little minds dull!

Therefore, without their dad’s explicit permission, the two little ones could only suppress their inner urges, gulping down drool, fixing longing eyes on the enticing golden chips.

Weiwei even inadvertently cheekily murmured an advertising phrase, "Keep looking at me, still looking at me, why keep looking at me? Look at me again, and again, I’ll eat you..."

This was a subtle hint to their father that she wanted to eat the chips!

Watching their cute hesitation of being eager yet restrained, Huang Jun couldn’t help but burst into laughter, "Ah, look at you two little gourmets, dazed by the fragrance. Alright, alright, go ahead and taste them; these are made especially for you by Daddy, much better than those sold in the store, and healthier to boot..."

With those words...

They both stretched out their hands at the same time, each picking up a chip, feeling them light and slightly firm in their palms.

As the chips went into their mouths, with a gentle bite, a crisp and pleasant ’crunch’ sound echoed, surprising the two little ones with the unexpected crunch.

"Wow, so crispy!"

They both exclaimed in surprise almost all at once, their tones filled with disbelief and delight.

Qingqing’s face beamed with happiness, "These are even tastier than the ones from the store!"

Weiwei nodded like a little chicken pecking rice, "Yeah, they taste so numb, salty, and crunchy, super yummy!"

The two little ones munched away eagerly, quickly finishing the chips in their hands. Yet, still craving more, they promptly reached for Huang Jun, snatching away the basket filled with chips, continuing to relish their delightful snack right there in the kitchen doorway.
