Ingredients needed 3 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Fill the plastic bag with air before shaking to prevent the starch from clumping and ensure an even coating on the lotus root.
  • The candy sauce burns easily, so reduce the heat to medium-low once it begins to bubble, then quickly add the ingredients and toss to avoid burning.

Recommended for

  • Parents who want to help children enjoy lotus root despite disliking it.
  • Those seeking a crispy, nutty, sweet-savory appetizer or side dish perfect with beer.
