Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Soak the glutinous rice in water for 2-3 hours.

   

2. 2 Add an appropriate amount of vinegar to soak the lotus roots in water to remove the astringency of the lotus roots. The soaking time is 10-15 minutes. After soaking, rinse with clean water and cut off about one centimeter of the head of the lotus root to make a lid.

   

3. 3 Stuff the soaked glutinous rice into the lotus root holes, and poke it with chopsticks while stuffing. Don't press it too tightly. The glutinous rice will expand when cooked. Just fill it up.

   

4. 4 After filling with glutinous rice, seal it and insert toothpicks to secure it. Be sure to secure it, otherwise the opening will cause the glutinous rice to spill out during the cooking process.

   

5. 5 Add water to the lotus root discharge pressure cooker to cover the lotus roots. Add jujube, longan, rock sugar and brown sugar. Do not put the osmanthus in yet. Cover the pressure cooker and press for 40 minutes.

   

6. 6 Then exhaust the gas, open the lid of the pot, add the osmanthus and pressurize it for 10 minutes.

   

7. 7 For children who are not impatient, it is best to soak it in the pot overnight, and then take it out to eat, it will be more delicious. Take the soup in the pot and add a little rock sugar to make it thick. You can also add lotus root starch to thicken it and pour it on the lotus root. The sweet and glutinous osmanthus glutinous rice lotus root is made.

   

8. 8 I had some glutinous rice left and made jujube and osmanthus porridge. I put rock sugar on it and ate it with glutinous rice and lotus root. It tasted great!
