Sweet & Salty Lotus Root Cheese Patties

Regular lotus root patties are common, but I started thinking that they would taste good with cheese, so I made these. At first, I grated the lotus root by hand, but that was so much work that I started using a food processor, and they came out so well.

When you add them to the frying pan, they may fall apart easily, so be careful. When the bottom has become crispy, flip it over.
If you don't have a food processor, you can grate them by hand, using a grater. Recipe by Raby
