First of all, we need to prepare two to three lotus roots. In order to make more delicious sand tea and lotus roots, the editor specially asked my mother to bring two freshly dug lotus roots from the countryside. Then, prepare a cucumber. Everyone must pay attention.
, don't choose the white cucumber, choose the slender green cucumber, which can better absorb the flavor and increase the color of the dish.
Finally, prepare a little salt, chopped green onion, vegetable oil, ginger, soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, and sand tea sauce.
The editor here would like to remind my friends that when choosing onions, choose small onions. Small onions are softer and taste better than green onions.
Everyone should also pay attention to soy sauce. Choose dark soy sauce instead of light soy sauce. Dark soy sauce can color the lotus roots more easily.
Next, it’s time for us to get started.
First, clean the lotus roots and cucumbers. You must clean the lotus roots carefully because they are dug out from the fields and have a lot of bacteria. After washing, you need to remove the heads on both sides and then peel them.
The editor uses a special peeling tool that I bought, which is very easy to use and very fast. If your friends don’t have one, you can also peel it with a knife, which will be slower.
Then, we need to cut the lotus root and cucumber into dices.
Because the editor's knife skills are pretty good, the dices cut out look about the same size.
It doesn't matter if the sizes are different, it just affects the appearance of the dish and doesn't have much impact on the taste.
But friends, be sure to pack the lotus root dices with water to prevent discoloration.
Then, we need to prepare a small bowl to prepare the secret sauce.
First, we pour in an appropriate amount of dark soy sauce, stir it slightly with chopsticks, then pour in the balsamic vinegar and sand tea sauce, and mix well.
Some guys may not have satay sauce, so you can substitute it with other sauces you like, such as chili sauce, garlic sauce, etc.
Next, we need to turn on the fire, heat the pot, pour in vegetable oil, and pour the prepared minced ginger into the pot. At this time, the fire must not be too high until the fragrance overflows from the pot. Then, pour in the chopped ginger directly.
Good diced lotus roots and diced cucumbers must be stir-fried over high heat at this time, and then stir-fried quickly with a spatula until they are halfway cooked.
Then, pour in the secret sauce we prepared in advance. If some friends want to stir-fry, you can also do it, but you must pay attention to adding water little by little while stir-frying to prevent the lotus roots from changing color, so as to keep the white color.
Flawless pure color lotus root.
Finally, we continue to stir-fry until the diced lotus root is mature, so that all the diced lotus root and cucumber are evenly coated with the sauce.
At this time, cover the lid and simmer for a minute or two to allow the lotus root dices to absorb the flavor better.
Finally it's ready to go.
When I put it on the table, I couldn't control my stomach anymore.
A strong aroma hits you head-on. The smell is attractive and endlessly memorable. It is crisp and refreshing in the mouth, tender and delicious.
As if his hands were out of control, he kept picking up vegetables and devouring them without any sign of eating.
Although I enjoy it, I still want to make a few remarks.
First of all, you must put the chopped lotus root in water to prevent it from changing color. Then, if you are stir-frying, you must add water little by little while stir-frying. Finally, you must simmer it for a while before taking it out of the pot.
minutes, so that it can taste better.
