Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Wash the lotus root and cut off the ends on both sides

   

2. 2 Peel! Cut into 0.3cm thick slices and place them in a basin of water while cutting to prevent the lotus root slices from turning black. After all the slices are cut, rinse them twice with water and properly control the water content

   

3. 3 I used the spoon from the seasoning box, 2 tablespoons of five-spice powder (you can do it without thirteen spices), 3 tablespoons of salt, 4 tablespoons of chicken essence, beat in two eggs, an appropriate amount of cumin, stir the flour into the lotus root and seasonings, and keep adding until the lotus root slices are covered and the egg liquid is no longer sticky!

   

4. 4 I forgot to take a picture of the stirred lotus root slices, they can be fried after resting for 5 minutes! When the oil temperature is 70-80% hot, you can add the lotus root slices! Put them into the pot one piece at a time to avoid sticking

   

5. 5 Turn over frequently, take out the lotus root slices when they turn light yellow, heat the oil again, and fry for the second time. In order to make the batter crispy, fry it twice

   

6. 6 In the second change, turn over quickly. Take it out when it turns golden or darker in color. Control the oil and put it on a plate

   

7. 7 It’s a great snack to eat hot or cold! When there are no vegetables, you can stir-fry a dish with garlic sprouts. It’s a good idea to spray some vinegar before taking it out of the pan
