“Mando, what are you doing?” Genevieve walked over.
After walking into the house, she saw the kitchen counter next to Armand was messy and covered with flour.
On the side, there was a box filled with strangely shaped beef pies.
“I’m making beef pies.”
Armand noticed that she was looking over at the dirty counter and said awkwardly, “I bought pastry sheets, but I thought they were pretty thick and wouldn’t taste good. So I searched online for tutorials and made the pastry sheets myself.”
When Armand leaned toward her, Genevieve noticed a lot of flour scattered over his clothes and arms.
Then, she glanced at the batch of beef pies baking in the oven and could smell a faint aroma.
She was stunned for a moment and her eyes glimmered. “I thought you said we’re ordering pierogi for dinner tonight? I didn’t expect you to make them yourself.”
Armand snorted and said, “It’s pretty easy to make the stuffing. The ratio was given in the tutorial. But rolling the pastry sheet was a little challenging. Oh, I also cooked simmered pork belly.”
Looking at where he pointed, Genevieve saw a plate of pork belly.
The meat was sliced evenly, looking fat and juicy.
Armand stabbed a piece of the pork belly with a fork and brought it close to her mouth. “Here. Have a taste.”
Genevieve thought the food looked good appearance-wise for a man cooking for his first time. However, she wondered if it would taste better than her cooking.
Nonetheless, she didn’t want to disappoint him, so she took a bite.
The meat melted almost immediately as soon as it entered her mouth. There was also a faint aftertaste of red wine.
It was delicious.
Genevieve frowned and looked at Armand suspiciously. “Are you sure you’ve never cooked before? And you learned all this just from a video?
“I used to have housekeepers at home. So I never had to go near the kitchen.”
