  5. Put it into the electric pressure cooker, add an appropriate amount of water, foam the lotus roots, add brown sugar, cover the lid, and press the tendon button! About an hour and a half! Feifei cooked it the night before but didn't fish it out until the next morning! It’s softer and more flavorful this way! (If the weather is hot, put it in the refrigerator) Leave it in the pot for about 5 hours and it will become softer and more delicious!
