How to eat lotus

Huahua still remembers that when she was a child, there was a pond outside the gate. In summer, it was full of lotus flowers, and you could hardly see the surface of the water! But in my memory, the lotus delicacies made by my mother are still the most delicious!

Production steps:

1. Fried lotus

1. Collect lotus petals, rinse them with clean water and set aside.

2. Add a small amount of salt to the flour, beat an egg, stir well until it becomes a paste.

3. Roll the cleaned lotus petals in the flour a few times and coat them with the flour paste.

4. When the oil in the pot is hot, throw the lotus flowers wrapped in flour directly into the pot. Cook until the surface of the lotus flowers turns golden yellow. Take them out and dry them before eating.

2. Lotus leaf tea

The lotus has a very fragrant scent. Although it cannot be used to make tea directly, the fragrance of the lotus can be infused into the tea leaves, making the tea taste more fragrant!

1. Wrap the lotus leaf in a gauze or net bag to make a tea bag, then put it in the lotus pistil, rewrap the petals, and take it out after 2-3 days.

2. Dry the tea leaves and store them. When you drink tea, you only need to brew the tea leaves and you can smell the fragrance of lotus flowers in the tea leaves!

How to eat lotus leaves

When she was little, Huahua always liked to pick a big lotus leaf and cover her head with it to keep out the heat, or to protect her hair when it rained. Thinking about it now, she was really happy when she was a child!

2. Dry the fresh lotus leaves in the sun, then soak them in hot water until they become soft.

3. You can choose the dishes on the rice at will. Add whatever you want and stir-fry it with the cooked rice. Then spread the lotus leaves in the pot, put the fried rice and dishes on the lotus leaves, wrap them with lotus leaves, and cook for about half an hour.

4. In this way, the rice will have the fragrance of lotus leaves, which is simply delicious!
