STEP 1/7
Prepare 2 spoons of vinegar in 1L of water before trimming lotus root.
STEP 2/7
Please prepare two clay lotus roots. I bought it at the mart. There are two 250g each, so it's about 500g in total.
STEP 3/7
Put the vinegar water and lotus root in the pot. I'll boil it for about 10 minutes. It's a process to get rid of the unique Arin flavor of lotus root. After cooking lotus roots for about 10 minutes, wash them in cold water and drain them.
STEP 4/7
I'll make water for cooking while boiling lotus roots.
Add 10 spoons of soy sauce and 3 spoons of sugar to 500ml of water and mix well until sugar dissolves. It's okay if all the sugar doesn't melt at this time. It's going to boil down anyway.
STEP 5/7
Put the drained lotus root in the pot. Please add the pre-made boiled water, too. I should cook it so that the boiled water can cover the lotus root well, right?
STEP 6/7
When the lotus root is soaked with boiled water, add 2 spoons of oligosaccharide or honey, 1 spoon of sesame oil, and 1/2 spoon of sesame seeds and mix them evenly. At this time, set the heat to the lowest.
STEP 7/7
Boiled lotus root, which is sweetly boiled down with soy sauce in healthy lotus root, is completed. If you eat it as a side dish when you eat, it's filling and delicious. I like lotus root so much that I make it without dropping it. I like it more because it's a taste that you can't get tired of even if you eat it. It's sweet soy sauce, so my daughter eats it well. Braised lotus roots with a soft, crunchy texture! If you make it as a side dish, it's reliable and delicious, so I hope you can try making it.
Vinegar water is good to prevent browning of lotus roots. The lotus root is seasoned well, so cook over medium-low heat with a lid on it to cook it gently.
