Ingredients:

  • 1 medium lotus root (about 300g), peeled and sliced
  • 3 tablespoons starch (potato or corn)
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • Chili powder and cumin powder (to taste)
  • Fresh parsley, finely chopped (optional)
  • Oil for frying

Cooking Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Lotus Root:
    Wash and peel the lotus root. Slice it thinly into even discs to ensure a uniform crunch. Soak the slices in water to prevent browning while preparing the batter.

  2. Make the Batter:
    In a mixing bowl, whisk together the starch, eggs, salt, and black pepper until it forms a smooth, lump-free batter.

  3. Coat the Lotus Slices:
    Pat dry the lotus root slices, then dip each slice into the batter, ensuring they are evenly coated.

  4. Fry the Lotus Root:
    Heat oil in a deep pan over medium heat. Fry the lotus root slices in small batches until they turn golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Ensure the oil temperature is consistent for even cooking.

  5. Double Fry for Extra Crispiness:
    Increase the oil temperature slightly and fry the slices again for 1-2 minutes to achieve that perfect crunch.

  6. Add the Final Touch:
    Remove the slices and place them on a paper towel to absorb excess oil. Sprinkle with chili powder, cumin, and chopped parsley while they’re still warm.

  7. Serve and Enjoy:
    Serve immediately as an appetizer or snack and watch them disappear in no time! Perfect with a dipping sauce of your choice.
