A delicious and simple recipe! I could only buy sliced pooted Lotus root, but it also worked very well. So, for me no need to do step 1. I had to simmer them a little longer since guest were late. Still, this dish was very tasty, the Lotus crispy and the colour became so beautiful!

My niece told me they had a simmered lotus root dish for dinner, which made me want to make some myself. It turned out more delicious than I had expected and I have been repeatedly making this dish.☆When you are cooking the lotus root right away, it's not necessary to soak it in the vinegar water.☆In the process ④ and after, the lotus root gets crispy if you cook it on high heat for a short time. If you cook it on low/medium heat for a longer time, the lotus root gets softer, but not soggy. Depending on your preference, adjust the heat. Recipe by Okanyan

Grated Lotus Root Soup Grated Lotus Root Soup

I was planning to make lotus root cakes but changed my mind and made soup instead. I didn't realise how thick this soup would be by just using the grated lotus root. You don't need katakuriko to thicken the soup. Lotus root contains a lot of fibre, and it's a very satisfying soup that'll warm you up. Might be diet friendly too?You can use pork or chicken instead of prawns. Recipe by Yukirinrin
