Ingredients

  • 1 lotus root about 6 cm
  • 2-3 green onions
  • 1/2 lb ground chicken
  • 1 tsp grated ginger
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp soy sauce
  • 1 Tbsp potato starch
  • 2 Tbsp oil

Sauce

Instructions

  • Peel lotus root, and slice 1/4" thick. You will be able to get 8-12 slices.
  • Chop green onions.
  • Put green onions, chicken, ginger, salt, Soy Sauce, and potato starch in a bowl, and mix very well.
  • Sprinkle potato starch (not in the ingredient list) over one side of each lotus root slice.
  • Divide the meat mixture into 4-6 parts, depending on how many lotus root slices you have. Put one part of the meat on a starch side of lotus root. Then cover with another lotus root slice so the starch side touches the meat. Trim the sides of the meat with a knife so the meat is neatly inside the sandwiches.
  • Heat oil at medium heat in a frying pan. Cook for 3-4 minutes. Turn over, turn down the heat, cover, and cook another 3-4 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix the ingredients for the sauce until sugar dissolves.
  • Add the sauce mixture to the pan. Cook for a few minutes coating the sauce on both sides.
