Glutinous rice and lotus root

Overview

Haha, it’s the weekend and my boyfriend is still working overtime. To reward him, let’s make something delicious~~

After peeling the lotus root, cut off three centimeters from one end. Don’t throw it away!
Fill the rice! It would be nice to have a funnel, save some time. Soaking glutinous rice for three to four hours in advance will make it easier to cook.
Poke it with chopsticks to prevent the glutinous rice from not completely going in
After filling it, take a toothpick and sew it up
Both are ready, put enough water in the pot to cover the lotus roots
Brown sugar, if you don’t have white sugar at home, use rock sugar instead. The more brown sugar you put in, the better the coloring effect will be. Rock sugar is used to increase the sweetness. You can increase or decrease it according to your personal taste.
Put some red dates
After cooking for an hour and a half, the water is almost gone! It’s finally ready, let it cool, slice it and serve! (Pour the cooking juice on top, you can add some honey)
