Chapter 2462: Ordinary Beef Balls
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“This mock meat chicken drumstick not only looks like the real thing, its taste is comparable to yesterday’s phoenix. Although I can still taste a hint of the original ingredients, it’s still hard to imagine that this was a meat dish made solely from vegetables.” David ate a drumstick and lamented. “This technique and creativity are really astonishing. It’s really amazing.”
“I have said this more than once. This girl Angelina would definitely become a great chef that is on par with all the master chefs here one day. She always brings me surprises with her creativity. Her ability is unique amongst the younger generation of chefs.” Old Hunter ate a piece of mutton and also heaped praises on her.
“I have met many chefs who are specialized in making mock meats, and a few friends who are great at this, but I believe that Angelina’s achievements will definitely be greater than theirs in the future. This greatness has nothing to do with techniques. It is completely decided by her gift in aesthetics.” A female judge praised.
All the judges showed their admiration and praises for Angelina. Compared to the comments that they gave to Iman, they were obviously better.
“Compared to Iman who has a good master, the judges indeed prefer Miss Angelina who has her own creativity.”
“The upper limit that Iman has displayed now may never reach Julian’s standard, but the judges have seen the boundless possibilities in Angelina.”
“I think that Iman is on dangerous grounds right now!”
“I don’t know how many points she can get, but her PK point is full marks!”
As the judges’ scoring countdown began, the audience’s curiosity was aroused.
After the countdown ended, the judges’ scores and final scores appeared on the giant screen.
Angelina:
Judges’ score: 94!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTotal score: 94.6
Temporarily ranked at the first place!
Everyone exclaimed softly.
“It has appeared! The highest score in this year’s Top Chef Competition!”
“This score is also among the top scores of all the past years’ Top Chef Competition!”
“She’s indeed the favorite at winning the competition. Her score is also crushing Iman’s.”
The bullet chat refreshed crazily, showing the shock for this score.
“This…” Iman clenched his fists secretly. Although he was feeling rather indignant, he still maintained a faint smile.
Angelina looked at her score with ill-concealed happiness. She bowed to the judges to show her appreciation, but her gaze soon turned to Mag.
Three contestants had already completed their cooking, only Mag was still cooking now. The camera and the audience’s gaze all turned to Mag.
After the last hit of the rod landed, Mag put down his iron rods and scooped the minced meat into a big bowl. He added various spices and seasonings into it and began to knead and shape it.
The smooth minced had already had its fats and tendons removed. A round ball emerged from the gap of his fingers with just a gentle squeeze.
It was in the perfect state.
Mag took the prawn paste that was already frozen into a jelly from the fridge. He swiped his cleaver across the plate and the prawn paste jelly was cut into many small squares.
He got a pot and poured warm water into it. He maintained the temperature of the water over a mild fire before he really got to work on making the Explosive Pissing Beef Balls.
He grabbed the minced beef paste with one hand and squeezed a meatball about the size of his thumb in between his thumb and forefinger. He poked a hole in it with his finger and stuffed a piece of prawn paste jelly into it. He used his finger to smooth the beef paste over to cover the hole, before using a spoon to swipe across his forefinger and thumb. A round meatball made a beautiful parabola and landed into the pot gently. There was no big splash at all.
His actions were smooth. Mag grabbed the beef paste with one hand and held the spoon with the other hand. The bright red beef balls formed a line in the air as they fell into the pot.
“Is he performing tricks? Why is his action so smooth?” David couldn’t help getting closer to take a look.
“Is he making meatballs? But why is he putting the frozen prawn paste in the meatball?” Old Hunter asked with doubts.
“Forget about the rest, the action looks so good. His skilled craftsmanship is indeed entertaining,” a female judge said with an expression of appreciation.
“Interesting. Did he hit the paste 20,000 times to make beef balls?” Nancy looked at Mag, who was like an acrobatics master, with an increasingly brighter smile and anticipation.
Perhaps, other than charcoal-grilled mutton ribs, he might even give her more surprises. For example, this complicated and weird beef ball?
“Flamboyant stuff. It’s unqualified to allow him to take his place in the higher circles.” Iman looked at Mag without any worry in his expression.
If it was just beef balls, he didn’t think that Mag could defeat him.
The beef was just ordinary beef and the prawn paste was also made with the common white water prawns. What was he going to defeat him with? With his acrobatics skills?
“Brother Righteous is awesome! This technique is going to cause a lot of bloggers to flop!”

“I’ve just come in. May I ask, is it the Top Chef Competition’s live-stream?”
“Although I still have no idea what he is doing, it doesn’t dissuade me from saying this: Brother Righteous is awesome!”
The audience was obviously shocked by Mag’s operation. The repeated hitting previously made them feel sleepy and disoriented, but this meat ball making technique made them alert.
The beef balls quickly set in their shape in the pot of warm water. The round balls looked rather cute.
Compared to the draggy hitting, making the beef balls was short and rapid. In just a short while, the big puddle of beef paste became floating beef balls in the pot.
Mag washed his hands and switched off the fire. He scooped the beef balls that had set from the warm water and placed them in the beef bone broth at the side. The balls continued to cook in the broth.
Mag’s unusual beef balls making techniques had successfully attracted the judges and audience’s attention.
Compared to the other contestants’ cooking, his cooking process was obviously more complicated and nicer to watch.
Time passed rapidly. Mag switched off the fire and removed the cover, and the Explosive Pissing Beef Balls were done.
The round beef balls were rolling about in the soup pot and the bone broth’s aroma wafted out together with the heat. It wasn’t rich, but it was fragrant and pleasant.
Mag placed four beef balls into a small with a ladle of broth. He said to the judges, “This is the Explosive White Water Beef Balls. Please taste it.”
The staff member stepped forward and sent the 10 helpings of explosive beef balls to the judges’ table.
There was no plating. The beef balls were simply put into small bowls and sent to the judges’ table. Such a presentation was rare in the Top Chef Competition.
David scooped up a beef ball, shook his head and said, “Although the entire process is rather unique, this helping of Explosive White Water Beef Balls looks ordinary. There is nothing special about its smell, or its presentation.”
