After practicing several lotus roots, I can skillfully cut out decent flower-shaped lotus root slices, which is especially supported by my family. They all say that although the cutting method has changed, it tastes more fragrant and crisp. Haha, I don't want to eat the fried diced lotus root that I used to cook. Hehe, this is for myself. This is a little more troublesome than cutting diced lotus root, but since my family likes it, I will spare no effort! Hard work is also happy, and the sense of accomplishment is bursting.
Some people may say that you have nothing to do, and you cut it for posing. Actually, I really cut it for cooking! Of course, it doesn't have to be like this every time you eat. At least for a change, it is ok to have a banquet or a holiday. I can't do it after work at six o'clock. That's unrealistic, right? However, I really like cooking and tossing around in the kitchen. Being able to cook a delicious and beautiful dish is happier than getting a score of 100 in the exam. Everyone has his own interests. I'm not interested in cosmetics, bags and jewelry. I just like all kinds of kitchen utensils. My husband wants to buy a jewelry as a gift, so I say buy me a favorite pot! I don't know if there are like-minded people who raise their hands with me!
1 First, peel the lotus root, wash it, and cut off both ends to expose the lotus root hole.
Cut off both ends to expose the lotus root hole, which is convenient for the next operation.
3 then poke a piece of lotus root meat from the middle of every two lotus root holes with a V-shaped poking knife. (longitudinal poke, poke from one end to the other. )
After all poking, use a U-shaped poking knife to correct the edge of the groove just poked out.
5 If there is still something that can't be corrected with a U-shaped poking knife, smooth it with a small sharp knife. In short, the smoother the corrected edge, the more beautiful the final slice will be.
After all pruning, can you see the petals from the side? I found that I can only buy this kind of seven-hole lotus root here, and it would be better if it was a nine-hole lotus root.
Finally, according to your own cooking needs, you can cut thin and slice evenly, or you can stir-fry or cold salad as you like!
8 See if the sliced lotus root is like a flower? Beautiful, right? Come and eat the last dish at the party. The guest promises to praise your ability!
This is a non-boiled version of dried fruit made of flower-shaped lotus root slices. Lotus root slices are quite refreshing in a bowl!
It's nice to pick up a piece by yourself!
This is my New Year's Eve lotus pond cooking. I am not modest to say that I was praised for being beautiful when I served the table! This dish is a CD before big fish and big meat.
This is the boiled dried fruit I used to make. Sweet and icy, especially boring. It is a cold dish that must be cooked every Spring Festival. Have you tried? In short, a small change can bring a big eye-catching effect, which is really worth a try. Lotus root is rich in dietary fiber, but its calories are not high, which can control its weight. People who need to lose weight often eat some, which helps to lower blood sugar and cholesterol levels, promote intestinal peristalsis, and prevent constipation and hemorrhoids. It is easy for people to fall in love with fire in spring, and it is also good to eat more lotus roots.
