42th Meal Men’s Dishes
(T . N . 男料理 Not quite sure what to translate this as . But it pretty much means the easy dishes that men can cook . Any better way of translating this?)
I, who was enjoying the party with everyone … fell asleep before I even noticed .
Impossible … … there are no memory of the party!
Yes .
If I fall asleep, I wouldn’t remember any of it! ? I know that! Gusun .
It seems that after hermit crab-kun had quietly left, Hulitia carried me to the tent .
To think that I would do something so poor .
“Ah, the sun is dazzling … …”
It is morning, so that complaint isn’t valid .
It seems that after I fell asleep last night, everyone enjoyed fireworks .
It isn’t the fireworks that I know of, but firework from magic tools .
Instead of fire, it uses magical power and beautiful lights would come out .
It is wonderful because it is a light attribute everyday magic, so it won’t cause any fires!
Moreover it is very cheap .
They sell for five large copper coins and the expensive ones are only one large silver coin .
The price is just right for children .
I was looking forward to it, but why did I fall asleep?
When I think about it … … yeah, I can only think of one reason .
“I made too many 「Soap Bubbles」…… god damn”
The cause is probably because I made too many 「Soap Bubbles」for training .
It takes a lot of magical power and the method of transportation is walking .
Without noticing, I’ve been gradually losing stamina .
And because I was high tension the entire time, I didn’t realize that I was reaching my limits .
It is the same logic as an infant reaching its limit and falls asleep .
Although I have high magical power, my stamina is less than those of a bug .
I was careless to not notice the amount of stamina I had left .
Fireworks …… I was looking forward to it . (Deep sorrows)
I wasn’t able to see it one night, but it isn’t time to panic yet .
Because, there is still tonight .
Yes, tonight I’ll …
“Tonight, I’ll do fireworks!” (Dark smile)
I clenched my fist and renewed my determination .
However, according to the surrounding ……
They can only see a rare beast that is closing its hand and trembling .
I would like to show regret to this opinion .
Because this is a pose that brings out the little coolness I have .
However, reality is ruthless, no one is able to understand that fact .
“……Fu, a solitary existence is something that no one will understand . ”
“Gugu ~”
As if to show that it understands, my stomach growled to my statement .
Now that it is decided, let’s eat breakfast .
After eating, I’ll restore my magical power and stamina!
It was decided that everyone is suppose to prepare their own breakfast .
I put various things onto the iron plate and started to grill them .
The fragrant made my stomach more excited .
Ku! Calm down! The bad insects in my stomach!
I will let you eat plenty! (Small meal)
Breakfast is a crispy toast with a egg that is fried till the yolk is solid .
This is the classic breakfast of ordinary Philimichia families .
It is tasty like this … but I feel like something is missing .
Ok then, let’s modify it .
I’ll show it, the thing known as “Men’s dishes”!
First, fry the toast till it is crisp .
Then, put a large amount of butter on top of it and splash a lot of homemade fresh ketchup onto it .
I lightly fry some bacon that’s from Butch Rabi .
There are two pieces of bacon and each one of them is about 8mm .
Put the bacon onto the toast .
The butter is still in a lump, but that is a trivial thing .
“Men’s Dishes” doesn’t need fineness .
The onion is sliced thinly and a lot is put onto the bacon .
In this case, the onion wasn’t touched . It is raw .
Fuhahaha, be scared! ?
My tension is quickly rising .
It can’t be helped since cooking is fun .
Lastly is the fried egg!
The egg is fried till it is slightly solid and I lightly sprinkled some salt onto it .
It must only be slightly solid! The entire yolk can’t be solid!
It is a must! Absolutely! ? Fukyun! ? (In rare beast language “Do you understand! ?”)
“Completion! Perfect fried egg with toast! !”
It is easy to make and is delicious, so it is one of my favourite dishes .
It is a dish that can be make as long as you can use a kitchen knife .
The thickness of the ingredients doesn’t matter .
Anything is fine as it is suitable, even the look doesn’t matter .
The point is that it is fine as long as it goes into your mouth .
Fu~kyun~kyun~kyun! This is “Men’s dishes”! !
Well then … let’s eat!
“Itadakimasu~! Hamu! Jaku, jaku … gokun . ” (T . N . Sound effect of eating . )
Delish~!
The crispy texture of the toast!
The sour taste of the homemade ketchup! If it wasn’t homemade, it wouldn’t have this taste!
And the richness of the butter that I added a large amount!
If I was stingy about the butter, I wouldn’t be able to taste it!
The thick juicy bacon!
There is a method of stacking thin slices on top of each other .
However, when it is thinly sliced, there is no sense of eating meat when compared to the thick slices .
Therefore, I recommend cutting the bacon into thick slices .
Oops! The meat juice is overflowing with a good feeling .
After all, lightly grilling the meat makes it active!
And there is the bitter pungent taste of the sliced onions .
It neutralizes the tedious taste of the ketchup and the oil of the bacon and … …
Kua~! ? It came in my nose!
Kuhahaha! It seems that I’ve made a mistake in the amount!
As expected of “Men’s Dish”! It is severe while being delicious!
However, this is fine .
It is as if the sleepiness is beaten out of my head!
Fufu, do not forget about the existence of the fried egg!
The egg white is bland, so salt and pepper is enough .
When you reach part of the yolk, a small amount of yolk flows out from the middle .
This is my own style, being able to taste the solid yolk and the liquid yolk, a very advanced technique! (It’s not that much)
If this okay? A damn simple dish being this delicious! ?
“Gatsu gatsu …… gungun, gakun!”
Because of the deliciousness, I ate the rest at once .
I drank the milk in one gulp, and my breakfast ended … not!
“Oooh… … what you just ate looks delicious! El, make one for me too!”
Rioto-kun, you again! ?
At least be able to make it yourself … …
Mu, that’s right! This is a “Men’s dish”!
Even the kitchen knife is only used to cut the onions .
The bacons are already sliced into thick strips, and if it is too long all you have to do is cut it .
Anyways, being easy to make is the point of “Men’s Dish” .
Since there is the opportunity, lets have Rioto make it .
Perhaps, he may even say something like “I’ve awoken to cooking” and is able to learn to cook .
“Rai, I’ll teach you how to make this … … this ‘Men’s Dish’!”
“M, Men’s Dish?”
Delicacy is unnecessary for “Men’s Dish”
There is also no need to worry about the order to make things in .
All that matters is the volume and taste, it doesn’t matter even if it looks bad .
Yes, there is a point in making “Men’s Dish . ”
“Let’s make it first, everything starts from there . Well … let’s start . ”
“O, Oooo!”
Whether he overwhelmed by my power, Rioto agreed falteringly .
Alright, first is cutting the onions .
While being scared, Rioto cut onion with a kitchen knife .
Even though they can handle weapons, for some reason, there are a lot of them that aren’t good with kitchen knives .
Rioto seems to also be one of them .
“Ah … it became tilted . ”
The falling distorted piece of onion .
There was sadness in that figure .
“It’s fine!”
Next is frying the egg and grilling the toast .
Both of them are being done at the same time .
You can leave the toast alone to an extent, but it is important to look after the eggs .
If you don’t really care about it, it’s fine if you do it as you like .
But caring about the strange things is the creature known as a man .
Therefore, this part is being done properly .
“Wow, the yolk crumbled!”
To fail already .
Well, it can’t be helped .
Everyone experiences failure .
“Don’t mind!”
Now that it is like this, you need the mindset of “It’s fine as long as you eat it . ”
You just have to do it carefully the next time .
While we were frying the egg, the toast burned .
“It’s, a little burnt …”
The lion beastkin with a sad look is staring at the burnt toast .
“It’s fine if you shave a little bit off . Don’t mind the failures . ”
It is common thing .
It’s a waste, but if you shave off some of the burnt parts, it’s completely fine .
I lightly scraped off the burnt part with the back of a kitchen knife .
Next, lightly fry the bacon .
Juju* The sound and the fragrant entered out nose .
“Hey El … Can I eat it?”
“Don’t lose to the temptation, enduring it is the mission of a man . ”
This is where we have to endure .
Do you want to eat a toast without bacon?
I understand that painful feeling … … (Eight losses)
Lastly, it is to combine everything .
First is the butter, then the ketchup .
“Apply butter to the toast, ketchup … … ah, it flew out!”
“Don’t mind it! It’s docking!!”
The toast is steadily finished with a shaky hand .
And finally, Rioto’s “Men’s Dishes” is finished .
“Complete! ‘Men’s dish,’ perfect fried egg toast! !”
The outer appearance is very bad .
But, this is a dish made by a man who failed many times without giving up .
Surely, this dish is accompanied by the “taste of effort . ”
“Well, let’s try to eat it . ”
Rioto ate the “Men’s Dish” that he made himself .
A smile appeared on his face as he was chewing .
“Ee…… Surprisingly, I may have a sense of cooking?”
Rioto laughed with a “nika”, and gobbled on the toast .
(T . N . The featured image is pretty much how it looks like . Can’t figure out how to put an image here as copy and paste didn’t work . Anyone know how?)
Apparently it was delicious .
That’s right, things you made after difficulties are delicious .
No matter how easy something is, it will always be hard at first .
However, if you get used to it, you will be able to do it!
Let’s master “Men’s Dish” together!
“But … I think El’s cuisines are better!”
Rioto said that with ketchup around his mouth and a wonderful smile .
Apparently, it didn’t go the way I wanted .
Ah, the sky is blue .
There is the cloudless blue sky that is looking at me and laughing .
It is likely that today … will be a fine day .
