Time 20m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 , a whole lotus root sliced very thinly
1 piece fresh ginger, peeled and chopped (about 1 inch long)
2 garlic, cloved peeled and chopped
1 1/2 cups of roughly chopped green onions
2 tablespoons hot red chili peppers, finely chopped
oil
vinegar for the lotus root water
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
pepper
1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil

Steps:

  • Put the sliced lotus root into vinegar water as you slice it, as described above. Drain well just before cooking.
  • Heat up a large frying pan with the oil. Add ginger and garlic, and stir fry until the oil is very fragrant.
  • Add the drained lotus root slices in a single layer. Cook until the lotus root slices start to change color - they turn a bit translucent looking. Turn over and cook a couple more minutes.
  • Add the chili pepper and green onions, and stir-fry. Add the sesame seeds, pepper, soy sauce and sesame oil.
  • The lotus roots should get a bit caramelized from the soy sauce. Serve hot or cold. This is very nice for bento.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my dish didn't turn out as good as the picture. The lotus root was too tough.

This dish is a bit bland for my taste. I think it could use a little more spice.

I'm not a big fan of lotus root, but I really enjoyed this dish. The sesame seeds and green onions really helped to balance out the flavor of the lotus root.

This is a great way to use up leftover lotus root. I had some leftover from a previous recipe, and this was the perfect way to use it up.
