Ingredients
Steps
-
The main ingredients are ready (the chicken asks the boss to help chop it).
-
Soak lotus leaves and enoki mushrooms in water for a while.
-
Chop the red dates and shred the ginger.
-
Add cooking wine, salt, oil, oyster sauce and cornstarch to the washed chicken to taste (the cooking wine will remove the fishy smell and make the chicken tender and smooth)
-
Add ginger and red dates to the plate and mix well.
-
Place the washed lotus leaves on a plate, pour in the seasoned chicken, and then add the daylilies.
-
After the water in the pot boils, add the wrapped chicken (try to choose large lotus leaves and wrap them with toothpicks)
-
Steam over high heat for ten minutes, then turn to low heat and steam until cooked (the steaming time is about 18 to 20 minutes due to wrapping)
-
Open the lotus leaves and the rich scent of lotus comes out. Add chopped green onion (if you don’t like to omit it)
-
Finished product. Just ripe, tender and full of lotus flavor. Delicious!
